SOC 1342 - MASS SOCIETY IN JAPAN


Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
This course offers an advanced understanding of thought and behavior in contemporary Japan. We will focus our attention on Japanese social values, attitudes and thought patterns in modern life. We will study the fundamental values through the Japanese life course as they are interwoven in the culture, economy and society, and will use both conventional and unconventional material to achieve this goal. A cross-cultural approach will be taken to address the central question; why do the Japanese think and act as they do?
