To understand contemporary international society in the wave of globalization, it is no longer enough to follow behavior and interaction of governments. Other actors, such as NGOs, supranational organizations, migrant or indigenous communities, as well as other cultural entities including minorities and individuals, have transnational networks and influences. After defining globalization and methodology, the course sheds light on transnational influence of international migration and cultural exchanges through colonization, decolonization, and structural changes of postwar international politics. The latter half analyzes reasons and solutions for contemporary issues concerning international migration. This course focuses on the Asia-Pacific region with examples from former British colonies and Japanese policies.
