Course Summary

In our seminar, we conduct research on population and social dynamics, focusing primarily on international migration and multicultural societies. The ultimate goal is to produce sociology and/or demography papers grounded in empirical data, whether qualitative or quantitative. In this Seminar B Type (2) , participants will engage in group readings of various papers and books on a range of topics relating to sociology and demography. Participants may also be asked to present their own research. We are considering academic articles from journals such as the following:

・American Sociological Review
・Demography
・Population and Development Review
・Social Forces
・Sociological Science
・International Migration Review
・Ethnic and Racial Studies
・Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies
・Migration Studies
・Nations and Nationalism
・Social Science and Japan Journal
・『社会学評論』
・『教育社会学研究』
・『理論と方法』

*In principle, students are expected to enroll in both B1 and B2 concurrently. However, enrollment in only B1 or B2 may be allowed under special circumstances, such as unit caps.
