教育目標

【附中文說明,完整版課綱亦可見系網站「全球政治與社會變遷:當代議題」PDF檔】 This course provides students with the opportunity to discuss social and political issues of the contemporary world in English. The goal of this course is to understand and explain political and social changes of the current world. Participants will not only learn basic concepts and arguments for their research, their own analysis and case study, but also enhance their ability of dealing with global public issues through the design-thinking method and other activities in class. Before the midterm, we will depict some major political and social changes that occurred between 1989 and the Covid-19 era by illustrating political and social trends in the post-pandemic era, by reflecting contemporary challenges of democracy, global social movements, migration and identity politics. After the midterm, we will discuss some ongoing socio-economic problems that different regions and societies try to solve, including housing crisis, energy and food sovereignty, knowledge, future work and leisure. We encourage participants to make possible policy suggestions or innovative cooperation strategies. 【中文說明】 這門課程提供參與者以英語學習和討論當代全球政治與社會變遷的重要議題。了解這些重要議題,除了有助於我們掌握當代政治與社會發展面臨的危機和分歧,也是尋找相關解決方案,甚至是跨域合作的必經過程。 課程選擇討論的議題,基本上環繞著近幾年全球值得留意的事件與現象,包括後疫情的政治與社會趨勢、1989年之後民主國家在制度和社會實踐上面臨的挑戰、難民潮、多元文化論和認同政治的發展、居住政策、能源與糧食、知識、工作與休閒等。我們將探討這些議題在不同社會和區域的政策方法與可能後果,反思不同立場的看法,並透過作業練習、設計思考(design thinking)和相關課程活動集思廣益,嘗試提出政策建議或創新合作方案。
