国際日本研究特論XVI
Environmental Law and Governance
This course examines the issues, actors, and processes that shape environmental governance at the transnational and global levels. It presents recent and ongoing research, with a focus on Earth system governance (key theoretical debates, conceptual innovations, and empirical findings). Through classroom discussions based on assigned readings and the development of a collaborative mini-project, students explore in greater depth various regulatory frameworks, decision-making processes, institutional arrangements, and mechanisms at the intersection of science, politics, and law. In doing so, they critically examine the relevance and legitimacy of these emerging forms of governance in the era of planetary transformation and upheaval of the Anthropocene.

授業の方法
1. This course is taught using an active learning approach. Classes consist of interactive lectures followed by group and class discussions that address general concepts and/or focus on case studies. These discussions are generally based on assigned readings and revolve around a list of questions provided in advance. Working on a final mini-project allows students to further develop their critical thinking and analytical skills.
2. The first class will be held online (Zoom: access information will be posted on UTOL before the first day of class).
3. Starting with the second session, classes will be held in person, with the option to attend online for students who cannot come to campus for reasons authorized by university policy.
4. Students may ask the instructor individual questions during the 15 minutes before the lecture begins. Students who wish to take advantage of this time slot are advised to notify the instructor in advance via email.
