Theory of International Interdependence II

Ethnicity, Nationalism and Education
This course aims to introduce graduate students to classic and recent sociological studies relevant to ethnicity, nationalism, and education, and to critically examine their contributions and limitations.

The topics covered in this course include:

•theories of ethnicity and nationalism,
•identity, culture, and migrants’ sense of belonging,
•migrants’ educational and social trajectories and social integration,
•critical race theory, and
•whiteness in education.

In Week 1, the course structure and learning goals will be explained online. The reading list and course schedule will be shared, and presenters will be assigned.

From Week 2 onward, students are expected to complete the assigned readings before each class and come prepared for discussion. Each week, one or two students will serve as presenters. Presenters are expected to cover the following:

•a summary of the assigned articles (research questions, literature review, methods and data, findings, and conclusions);
•a critical evaluation of the articles (strengths, limitations, and implications for the academic field and society); and
•discussion questions and ideas.


The reading list for this year is currently being updated and will be released shortly.

At the end of the course, a student will be required to pick up one question from a list of questions and write an essay of approx. 2,000 words.

Students will be able to
・discuss the significance, contributions, and limitations of each paper, and
・discuss the essay question, based on the assigned literature.

Each session is based on assigned readings, student presentations, and in-depth discussions. Students are expected to complete the required readings prior to each class and actively participate in class discussions. From Week 2 onward, one or two students will serve as presenters each week. Presenters will summarize the assigned readings, critically evaluate the arguments and methodologies, and propose discussion questions. Class discussions will focus on critically examining key concepts, theoretical frameworks, and empirical findings related to ethnicity, nationalism, and education. Through guided discussion, students will be encouraged to reflect on the implications of the literature for both academic research and educational practice. In the final weeks of the course, students will have the opportunity to present their own research projects and receive constructive feedback from peers and the instructor.
