| 授業の概要 | この授業は、女性、少数民族グループ（部落、アイヌ、在日韓国人、LGBTQ +そして障害者の社会的不平等に焦点を当てています。 講義では、日本における社会的不平等 について多様な側面 （社会、法律、ジェンダー、性的指向性、 経済的）から分析し、それが社会と個人に及ぼす影響について検討します。 さらに社会的不平等における歴史的、政治的、制度的、経済的、そして社会文化的な文脈を探求します。 This course focuses on social inequality of various marginalized groups in Japan- women, ethnic minority groups (Buraku, Ainu, Zainichi Koreans), and people with disabilities, Hansen patients. This course explores various aspects of social inequality—economic, social, legal, ethnic, gender, and sexual orientation- in Japan and the consequences thereof for the society and the affected people. We examine the historical, political, institutional, economic, and sociocultural contexts for this inequality and how different actors—perpetrators, victims, the state and non-government organizations—have and are responding to the manifest challenges. |
