科目の目的・到達目標 | The course will seek to answer the following questions: What are the causes of cross-cultural conflicts? How can dialogue help to resolve such conflicts? How should dialogue across cultures be conducted? The course will also look at how culture interacts with other social systems in international society, including political and economic systems. |
授業の概要 | This course will look at some of the major issues raised during the United Nations' "Year of Dialogue Among Civilizations." Special attention will be given to the role that culture plays in what Samuel P. Huntington has referred to as the "clash of civilizations." The course will begin with several contemporary case studies for analysis, and then move on to theoretical issues, such as theories of globalization and the role of intercultural communication, education, science/technology, the media, and ethics in cross-cultural dialogue. Finally, the course will consider how normative solutions to cross-cultural conflicts can be arrived at. |
