This course is an introduction to cultural studies, with focus on Trans-Pacific studies. It aims to provide graduate students with basic understanding of ways to explore the significance of time and space in conjunction with the meaning of power. The course welcomes students with limited or no prior background to this topic, though it also will accommodate the interests of those with more advanced knowledge and interest.

授業計画
Details will be provided on the first day of class (April 7). The class will be offered online via zoom (see below for access code).
We will be using Matt K. Matsuda's book (see textbook section for bibliographic reference) as our basic text and will read additional articles relating to each chapter.
授業の方法
This is a discussion based class. Students must finish the assigned readings in advance and come prepared to engage in discussions. Everyone must come prepared to ask questions and offer their insight. The amount of reading per week is limited and not very demanding--this is deliberately done so to encourage students' to carefully reflect on the reading materials and be fully prepared for active discussions.
The class will be conducted online but depending on the coronavirus situation, we may try to meet once or twice to go on a field trip.
成績評価方法
