| Course description |
|
This course is offered in English as one of the Multidisciplinary Courses of the Global Integrated Studies, and is open to students from Tokyo University of Foreign Studies and the University of Electro-Communications. Attaining sustainable development in our current society may require “Kyosei,” or symbiosis as an effective way of thinking. This course is intended to inquire into the concept of Kyosei, and necessary conditions and challenges for establishing Kyosei society. The class begins with a theoretical inquiry into Kyosei, followed by discussions on the present situations and challenges toward Kyosei society through a series of case studies of current efforts for the construction of sustainable society in Japan and abroad. What is “Kyosei ?” The class begins with this simple but difficult question. While pursing the concept and idea of Kyosei, we inquire into how Kyosei works in our current society and what is required for the establishment of Kyosei society. An inquiry into Kyosei is carried out by referring to several experiences. |

The course is composed of two parts. In part 1, viewing Kyosei as a contemporarily meaningful and comprehensive perspective of humanities and social science, we attempt to identify and assess present situations and challenges that society has been currently faced with and inquire into the needs of and conditions for the establishment of Kyosei Kyosei society through a multidisciplinary approach. In part 2, first, focusing on Kyosei between nature and humans, we examine the role of agriculture in our current society and the examples of Kyosei in agriculture. Second, given the viewpoint above, we discuss the way in which sustainable rural development has emerged in developing countries, through a series of case studies of the rural development projects conducted by faculty members of Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology. ＜第１部＞ 第１回目 共生社会の経済・環境政策① （吉田） 第２回目 共生社会の経済・環境政策② （吉田） 第３回目 共生社会と環境正義① （大倉） 第４回目 共生社会と環境正義② （大倉） 第５回目 動物介在介入①（甲田） 第６回目 動物介在介入②（甲田） ＜第2部＞ 第７回目 「共生」アプローチに基づく社会研究のケーススタディ （新井） 第８回目 現代社会における農業の役割、持続可能な発展に向けて② （草処） 第９回目 ベトナム・バックマー国立公園緩衝地帯における農民参加型木炭多用途利用技術の普及 （及川） 第10回目 ブラジル・アマゾンにおける遷移型アグ口フオレストリーの普及 （山田） 第11回目 ウズベキスタン・シルク口ードにおける養蚕技術の普及と女性のエンパワメント（川端） 第12回目 アレロパシーのような生物間相互作用を利用した持続的農業（藤井） 第13〜15回目 学生による発表と総合ディスカッション 1.
