This introductory course is designed and team-taught by three instructors. It provides students with a fundamental knowledge of the diverse cultural heritages and contemporary lifestyles of China, Japan, and Korea.áThe three cultures, collectively known as ?East Asia,? share a long history of interaction and exchange. In the 21st-century, their expanding influence and power is being felt in economic, political, and cultural spheres around the globe.áOne basic premise of this course is that the contemporary global and regional importance of China, Japan, and Korea cannot be grasped without an understanding of the distinct local traits of each. Therefore, after first becoming familiar with the individual (domestic) histories and traditions of each culture, students will then learn how citizens of each country perceive of, construct, and represent various ideas and images of an autonomous cultural heritage, in an effort to negotiate their respective nation?s integration with the ongoing processes of globalization.¦very other spring
