Title of the course: Contemporary migration in Japan
This course aims to introduce main issues related to contemporary migration to Japan and integration. Demographic prognosis and increasing globalization of Japan clearly suggest that accepting higher number of immigrants should be one of priorities for policy makers. While Japan and its political elites are strongly opposed to open door policy especially towards low-skilled migrants, yet the numbers of foreign nationals living in Japan has been steadily increasing since 1990s.What are the factors behind this increase? Where these migrants come from and how are they being integrated into Japanese society? What are the factors inhibiting more open-door policies and integration? What are the problems migrants face in Japan? The course will cover a relatively wide array of issues related to migration; we will deal with historical minorities, contemporary migration in various forms as well as issues related to integration or racism.
