Outline |

Currently the importance of the Asian region is increasing, and many are working closely with Japan. In this course, we will learn modern history that extends to the past (from the 19th century ~). I hope the students deepen their understanding of the history and culture of various Asian regions and to gain recognition of the future and the world based on historical background.

The students should understand the basic knowledge about the overview and the current state of the contemporary Asian region and aim to be able to briefly explain the change by "modernization" from historical background. Furthermore, the students should be able to take the structural point of view to rethink political, social, and international relations of the modern Asia.
