グローバル教養科目（Introduction to Global History）
Introduction to Global History
This course surveys world-historical phenomena and events across the globe during the modern period. By employing three analytical perspectives—comparative, connected, globalization— it enables students to understand the formation of the present-day world, which is characterized by intricate and interconnected human webs. It covers a diverse range of topics, including wars, food, knowledge, animals, emigrants, disease, the industrial revolution, trade, colonialism, nationalism, and the environment.
By engaging with the three perspectives introduced by this course (comparative, connected, globalization), students will deepen and broaden their understanding of significant historical phenomena and events from the thirteenth to twentieth centuries. They will also develop essential skills for academic discussion, which empower them to critically analyze historical topics and effectively articulate their ideas.
