特別講義 Politics and Public Policy（外国語科目）
Politics and Public Policy
This course is a general introduction to political science. We will survey a wide range of topics in order to acquaint students with the basic concepts and theories that are useful for understanding politics in the modern world. Since political science is a vast discipline, our coverage is limited to the most important topics. Students will learn why politics has been considered as a crucial aspect of human life, how political decisions are made, and how those decisions are related to the fundamental goals of our society such as freedom, equality, and justice.

授業の方法
The course combines lectures with discussions of the reading materials. The lectures are designed on the assumption that students have completed all the readings before coming to class. Students will occasionally be asked to summarize certain sections of the readings and to present a review of the argument and evidence.
成績評価方法
Class attendance is mandatory. Each student is required to write two papers during the semester. The final grade will be based on class participation (20%), the midterm paper (30%), and the final paper (50%).
