| 授業の概要 ／Course outline |
As the original word philosophia shows, the western philosophy began with “love for wisdom”. The great minds have produced thorough philosophical thinking, and their thinking has become classic until today. There are two ways to study philosophy – one is to trace such historical developments in chronological order, the other is think directly on the themes and solutions in philosophy. This course takes the latter, direct way, and refers to the historical context as long as it helps us understand the problem. Since the 17th century, when the modern natural sciences emerged, various sciences have departed from philosophy. Natural sciences have developed and specialized so rapidly that today, or in near future, any problem could be resolved by scientific means – so we might expect. However, since western philosophy was born in ancient Greek, various problems have long been discussed until today. There are other problems which were created with the birth of modern natural sciences. Then, has there been no progress in philosophy over 2500 years? Is philosophy doomed to be resolved into sciences? These are also the themes philosophers are interested in. For better or worse philosophical problems have seldom been resolved, even within the limited range of themes this course touches on. So the important thing in studying philosophy is not to expect a perfect answer to the question, but widen your world while learning new standpoints and ways of thinking. |

The human mind, because of its width and depth, is sometimes referred to as a “microcosm.” This “microcosm” in every individual is continuously expanding from his/her birth to death with various bright rays emitting from time to time during the process of expansion. How the microcosm expands and emits bright rays defers between individuals. However, there are certain general rules applicable to the mind. I wonder how many people are aware of their own microcosm, how it has been developed and how it works. I would like for this course to be a good opportunity for students to understand or remind themselves of this “microcosm,” or the mind, how wonderful we, as human-beings, are, and how diverse our capabilities are. There are many approaches to understanding of the mind. This course will focus on an empirical science-based approach (a way of thinking supported by facts). In particular, features of components and functions of the mind will be studied from the viewpoint that each individual lives with an integrated background of three different histories, which are the “history of the species (evolution),” “history of society,” and “personal history.” This approach will lead to understanding of humanity, which is important in understanding of “other people” and “self.” |

私たちが日常生活で特に意識することなく使っている自然言語は、意味を音の連なりに暗号化する大変複雑なシステムです。この授業は、自然言語を経験的自然現象と捉えて研究する、言語の科学への入門です。授業では、単に講義を聴くだけでなく多くの演習問題に取り組むことで基本的な知識と考え方を身につけて欲しいと思います。 Natural language, which we use to communicate in everyday life, is a complex system that encodes meanings in sequences of sounds. This course is an introduction to the science of natural language, i.e. the study of natural language as an empirical, natural phenomenon. In this course, students are expected to not only listen to the lecture but also try and solve numerous exercises in class in order to learn basic knowledge and how to do linguistics. |
| 授業の目的と到達目標 ／Objectives and attainment goals |
言語学の基本を学び、ふだん話している「言葉」を客観的に分析できる視点を身につける。また、言語データを分析することを通して、科学的・論理的な考え方を身につける。 By completing this course, students should acquire the basics of linguistics and an objective viewpoint from which to analyze natural language. Through the practice of analyzing linguistic data, students should also develop their skills in scientific and logical thinking. |
| 授業スケジュール ／Class schedule |
言語学の各分野を順に勉強していきます。We plan to study various subfields of linguistics. １日目 (Day 1) 導入、音声学、音韻論 (introduction, phonetics, phonology) ２日目 (Day 2) 音韻論（つづき）、形態論 (phonology (continued), morphology) ３日目 (Day 3) 統語論 (syntax) ４日目 (Day 4) 意味論・語用論 (semantics, pragmatics) |

Lecture on ancient Chinese literature and Chinese characters. Also explain about ancient Chinese poetry and story behind the scenes. 黄河と長江という二大河を中心に育まれた中華文明には、それに相応しい悠久の歴史、思想があり、膨大な文学、文化があります。それらは、いずれの時代をいかように切り取っても、圧倒的な輝き・深さをもって我々に迫ってきます。それは、日本文化の源流、東洋文化の源流です。 漢文学は、「八宗兼学でなければ一分科をも修め得ない」（すべてのジャンルに習熟していなければひとつも習得できない）といわれ、中学高等学校時代のイメージとは相違し、実学虚学の文理全分野がその対象となる深遠無辺な学問です。例えば、本来の漢文学のなかには医薬学や動植物学、天文学や物理学といった理系分野さえも含まれるのです。李白や杜甫、『論語』や『三国志』は、漢文学のほんの一部分なのです。 もちろん短期間の講義の中では、理系分野の漢文学に触れる機会はありませんが、諸文化の源流といえる「巫祝」と呼ばれるシャーマン（古代の呪術者）への理解と、それを伝えてきた媒体である「漢字」、そしてそれが思想や文学として花開いた「故事成語」や「漢詩」の世界について具体例を挙げながら学びたいと思います。 |
| 授業の目的と到達目標 ／Objectives and attainment goals |
①漢文学や日本文学の基礎ともいえる「漢字」の特質について理解する。 ②「漢文」の原義や特質について理解する。 ③諸文化の源流である古代の「巫祝文化」について理解する。 ④「漢詩」や「故事成語」の読解から東洋の思想・文化・歴史について理解する。 |
| 授業スケジュール ／Class schedule |
１日目：漢字・漢文の世界「文字の誕生」「文学の誕生」～甲骨文・巫祝・中華思想・典故 ２日目：故事成語の世界「歴史的成語」「思想的成語」～諫言・諷刺・老荘思想 ３日目：漢詩の世界①「送別詩」「辺塞詩」～音楽歌謡の原義 ４日目：漢詩の世界②「飲酒詩」、試験 |

理系の学生であっても文学的・文化的・芸術的発想はたいへんに重要です。例えば、日本人初のノーベル物理学賞を受賞した湯川秀樹や日本のロケット開発・宇宙開発の父と呼ばれる糸川英夫も、ともに漢文や芸術を愛しました。特に湯川は、その量子力学の着想において、『老子』『荘子』など漢文学の影響を大いに受けたと自身でもたびたび言及しています。この講義からは、単なる教養的知識だけではなく、東洋的な発想や物の見方を学んでください。 |

The gender and sexuality studies use social-scientific approaches to matters related to the sexes such as biological sexes, psychosexuality and sociosexuality, sexual desires, and sexual behaviors. In the introduction, students will learn the overall territory of the gender and sexuality studies. Afterwards, students will learn three main themes; 1) modern family and working females, 2) matters related to gender and sexuality, and 3) modern history of homosexuality in Japan. 1) Modern family and working females: Students will learn about sex-role “male should work outside, female should do housework and take care of children at home” and modern family which emphasizes an interest to children and family ties at household. Moreover students will have an opportunity to think about how the norm surrounding a modern family is interrupting working female. On the other hand, students will learn the circumstances of the gender norm which shapes the way of life for males as well as that for females. 2) Matters related to gender and sexuality: Based on autonomy of sex, students will learn that everybody has the inherent right of his/her own sexuality which should not be affected by others regardless of his/her gender. However, in the reality, there is the gender asymmetry. Students will learn that sexuality of females is affected by males. In order to establish tight relationship as a member of the society without any gender concerns, understanding about the autonomy of sex is inevitable. 3) Modern history of homosexuality in Japan: Homosexuality will be featured amongst sexual minorities. A method based on historical sociology will be employed. Recently, same-sex marriage and same-sex partnership system have been discussed in Japan. Students will learn that social problems will not be solved only by these factors and gender equality is necessary for it. Since gender and sexuality are linked each other, they will be taught one by one at the class carefully. |
| 授業の目的と到達目標 ／Objectives and attainment goals |
1) By learning the fundamental knowledge about modern family and employment of female, students will be able to think about what they can do for creating society that anyone can spend their lives in their own ways regardless sexual differences. 2) Knowing about the reality of sexual damages to females caused by gender asymmetry, students will be able to explain why autonomy of sex is essential. 3) Learning about homosexuality in Japanese modern history, students will be able to explain why having establishment of same-sex marriage and same-sex partnership system is insufficient as support for sexual minorities. |
| 授業スケジュール ／Class schedule |
1) Introduction (1st Lesson – 6th Lesson) - Introduction, modern family, employment of females and males - Modern family and sex-role: Ladylike and manlike - Employment of female and the M-shaped curve - The male-homo society in Japan: Difficulties for females, hardships for males - The circumstances and problems of gender in Fukushima prefecture, etc. 2) Matters Related to Gender and Sexuality (7th Lesson – 10th Lesson) - Sexual harassment, sexual abuse, and sexual damages, - Reproductive health and rights, - Mechanism of visual content: Pornography and love between boys - Difficulties transgender people face 3) Modern History of Homosexuality in Japan (11th Lesson – 15th Lesson) - Lesbian and gay: What is the problem of the word “LGBT”? - Internet society and sexual minorities - Same-sex partnership, same-sex marriage, and future problems, etc. |

[NOTE] This course is subject to be cancelled at the end of AY2017. The students will not be able to re-take this course in AY2018 if they fail AY2017. Documentation is designed to train Japanese students to write theme papers logically in Japanese. Focus will be on the development and application of three skills: “reading”, which is the ability to interpret academic arguments, “thinking”, which is the ability to integrate their own ideas, and “writing”, which is the ability to claim their ideas. |
| 授業の目的と到達目標 ／Objectives and attainment goals |
The purpose of this course is to extend students’ skills by: . Understanding how academic argument works. . Demonstrating the ability to integrate their ideas from readings. . Demonstrating the ability to write accurate sentences in Japanese which engage academic arguments. |
| 授業スケジュール ／Class schedule |
Students will be assigned to small groups (at most 10 students) each of which is led by an instructor. Class discussions and assignments will center on the course. The instructors determine the actual form of the course, which may vary among instructors. For example, students write their composition in the class, they peer-review their compositions, and the instructor gives them proper advice. |

This course introduces principles of microeconomics which is one of two major branches, such as micro- and macro-economics, of economics. An economy consists of three major activities; i) producing goods, ii) consuming goods, and iii) exchanging goods. These activities are facilitated by a market in which individuals and firms voluntarily produce, exchange and consume goods. Students will learn the mechanism of the market and underlying individual level activities in the market. |
| 授業の目的と到達目標 ／Objectives and attainment goals |
The critical idea of economics is to predict the outcome as a whole according to individuals’ decisions. This idea is applicable in various settings beyond economics. Let’s learn how to put theories into practice through this course. |
| 授業スケジュール ／Class schedule |
1． What is economics? We will learn what economics and microeconomics are about. And an overview of the course will be provided. 2． Supply and Demand We will learn changes in price and changes in supply and demand through manipulating supply and demand curves. Particularly, we will learn how price is set through decisions to buy or sell at the individual level. 3． Market and Efficiency The efficiency can be attained in a market where individuals purchase and sell goods. We will also learn cases the efficiency cannot be attained due to restrictions, e.g. a minimum wage. 4． Elasticity Elasticity is a measure of responsiveness to changes in prices or incomes. We will learn a family of elasticity, including the price elasticity of demand and the income elasticity of demand. 5． Consumer and Producer Surplus We will see how to measure benefits which consumers and producers receive from the existence of a market. Those benefits for consumers and producers, called consumer surplus and producer surplus respectively, can be derived from demand and supply curves. 6． Producers The supply curve aggregates the supplies of individual producers (firms). We will learn the supply decisions each firm makes which constitute the supply curve. 7． Consumers Similarly to the supply curve, the demand curve aggregates the demands of individual consumers. We will learn the consumers’ decisions to purchase goods. 8． Monopoly and Oligopoly When there exist only one or at most multiple producers, the market is not competitive. We will learn how the price is set and how the traded quantity is changed when the market is not competitive. |

This course gives opportunity to learn how to use sociological concepts in your everyday life. The lecturer chooses sociological concepts which will be useful after graduating this university. The course is divided into three sections: human behaviors in online society, how to make money using “capitals”, and social norms which make people happy and unhappy. For example, editing articles in Wikipedia is called “collective action” in sociology. If you edit an article, you spend your time, however, other people can enjoy improved article. Therefore, most people will “freeride” even if they use Wikipedia every day, because they do not want to spend their own time. This research question is one of the most important one in sociology, and you may know the reason why many “Wikipedians” contribute if you take this course. Although international students are welcome, you have to understand Japanese talks in lectures and discussions. Papers written in either Japanese or English are possible. |
| 授業の目的と到達目標 ／Objectives and attainment goals |
(G1) To be able to explain all of sociological concepts appeared in the course to other people. (G2) To be able to apply some concepts to cases you find and write an academic paper which reports your sociological analysis. |

What is the historical background which gave birth to contemporary natural science? This course gives a historical perspective on the development of natural sciences, and encourages students to form their own historical perspectives on science. Since the class cannot cover all aspects of history of science, it will dig down several important topics. The topics to be discussed are: the beginning of science in ancient Greek; Scientific Revolution in the 17th century; the organization and specialization of sciences and the emergence of Darwinian evolution in the 19th century; the formation of earth science in the 20th century. |
| 授業の目的と到達目標 ／Objectives and attainment goals |
After this course, the students will be able to -state the historical roots of today's natural sciences -explain the creative attitudes of pioneering scientists by use of case studies -argue for their own views on the history of science |

Computational methods have contributed to develop not only natural science but also recent researches on social science. For example, simulation models provided useful insights for problems of racial segregation and cooperation among people who conflict their interests. When we build a model of social phenomenon, we have to extract a simple mechanism of the seemingly complicated problem. This skill will be trained in this class and may help you to design simple structure of information systems in the future. The lecturer explains fundamental structures of various simulation models in social sciences, and a participant implements those models. Note that you have to build programs and resolve technical issues by yourself. |
| 授業の目的と到達目標 ／Objectives and attainment goals |
You will acquire (G1) computational skills employed in simulation models; (G2) the ability to understand complicated social phenomena and human behaviors using simple models. |
| 授業スケジュール ／Class schedule |
1. Introduction and evaluation of programming skills. 2. Method for Simulation 1: Model Thinking 3. Shelling’s Segregation Model: Why racial segregation occurs 4. Method for Simulation 2: Cellular Automata 5. Floor-field model of Congestions: Why you should not hurry in an emergency 6. Threshold Model of Epidemics: Why infections rapidly spread 7. Prisoners’ Dilemma: Why cooperation fails among people 8. Lattice Model of Prisoners’ Dilemma: Why neighborhoods cooperate each other 9. Repeated Prisoners’ Dilemma: Why long term relations achieve cooperation 10. Method for Simulation 3: Genetic Algorithm 11. Guide for programming practice 12. Programming and consultation 1 13.

IMPORTANT: Participants must implement a short program using C without help from the lecturer. In principle, the lecturer does not provide technical support to each student. In addition, other programming languages or development environments are not allowed because the lecturer may not be able to evaluate those programs. In addition, this class will be held in Japanese in this year. If you prefer to English class, it will be held in FY2018. |

As globalization advances understanding different cultures and diversity of those cultures is becoming more important. Also having tolerance in different culture is becoming as important. In this society which various cultures come to contact, it is necessary to have ability to realize various problems and to solve them considering cultural background. In this course students pick out several themes from history and culture of Aizu. Comparing the theme with one's original culture and history, a student will acquire ability to realize the value of individual culture. At the same time he/she will learn in comparative culture and cultural anthropology point of view that a culture has both personal and universal aspect. Moreover students learn intercultural communication and ability to roll out to the world through discussion among individuals with diverse cultures. Concretely, students will learn climate, culture, history and industry of Aizu. Also will learn vision for the earthquake disaster reconstruction and widen knowledge of Aizu and Japan. Students will create regional identity by making clear the connection with Aizu comparing to one's original culture. The course will raise developing ability so that one's experience can be leveraged. In class a teacher gives lecture. And then students introduce the resource that they brought and explain the difference with their culture. Then students develop the subject by group discussion and create new material. And present thoughts and opinions. In final class each student does a presentation of "suggestion for Aizu using ICT" This course as one of the ICT global program of SGU project is open for exchange students. However Japanese students are also able to take this course. |
