担当教員 O'Cathail, Maidhc
授業の目的、または到達目標 The human rights situation of Japan is often considered to be relatively good. However, ethnic minorities are suffering from various forms of discrimination and disadvantages. The government of Japan, as well as the society at large, has been and still is reluctant to provide them with protection, despite its obligations under international law. The objectives of this course are: (1) to find out the reality of multiethnic and multicultural character of the society, and the human rights situation of ethnic, linguistic and religious minorities in Japan and other parts of the world; (2) to obtain a clear understanding of the framework of minority rights protection under international human rights law; and (3) to develop ability of critically examining the remaining challenges and responsibilities of the government and citizens.
授業の概要 First, students will examine the realities and problems facing the ethnic, linguistic and religious minorities in the world, particularly those of foreign nationals or origin. Then, they will learn about the international human rights standards and system that recognize the special rights of minorities and provide protection to them, to further examine and analyze the problems and challenges involved.
