科目概要
How did Japan became modern? Japan was barely able to maintain its independence around middle of the 19th century, but only 50 years later, it gained the a position and reputation as one of the great powers of the world. After a bitter defeat in WW2, it rose to the top of the world economy after only a 30-year effort.
This “success story” impresses people who have been interested in Japan’s way of development, and sometimes those with an interest in Japanese culture. It is hard for both Japanese and others to answer the question “What’s Japan?” ,. We should take the opportunity to ruminate on the past, the present, and the future of “Japan”.

How did Japan became modern? Japan was barely able to maintain its independence around middle of the 19th century, but only 50 years later, it gained the a position and reputation as one of the great powers of the world.

This “success story” impresses people who have been interested in Japan’s way of development, and sometimes those with an interest in Japanese culture. It is hard for both Japanese and others to answer the question "What’s Japan?". We should take the opportunity to ruminate on the past, the present, and the future of “Japan”.
To expand our perspective, we will hold joint discussion sections with “World History” class at MIT via ZOOM, possibly with O.P. Jindal Global University India. Please note we have a makeup class once at night October 29. Through these experiences, this course aims to enhance the historical understanding of all students by providing a bird’s eye view from various areas around the globe.
This year, we will hold the class jointly with MIT’s “World History” class taught by Profssor Hiromu Nagahara and Sana Aiyar, possibly Professor Gitanjali Surendran from O.P. Jindal Global University. Our two classes at Keio and MIT will each record its own sessions and communicate with the other class via MIT’s class Web system. We will hold a joint online session via Zoom. As there is a 13 or 14-hour time difference between Fujisawa and Boston, our class will be at night on October 29. Please understand all class members are required attending the session as they are an essential part of this interactive course.
