授業概要   Course Description This course deals with ethnic and cultural minority groups in contemporary Japan. Japan is often described as a homogeneous society, and indeed does have a very dominant ethnic and cultural mainstream. That is a fact of life for minority groups in Japan, and we will look at how some of them have positioned themselves vis-a-vis the mainstream in finding a place for themselves in Japanese society. Along the way, we will explore the many fascinating similarities and differences between the experiences of the many minority groups that we study.
到達目標   Class Goals Students are expecting to discuss the following categories including:
Ethnic/ racial minorities in Japan: Zainichi Koreans, Chinese, (Niike) Brazilians, Filipinos, and or hafu.
