授業目標: The elective will introduce to various theories of ethnicity based in a number of different points of departure: students will be introduced to recent evolutionary and cognitive theories of groups formation, cooperation and trust amongst non-kin; social psychological theories of ethnicity as a mode of categorization, boundary- and identity construction; and sociological and anthropological theories of ethnicity as expressions of fluid, situated and negotiated categories. We will compare and relate these approaches to theories of religious affiliation as a means to construct and uphold social borders and to construct personal identity, and finally we will relate these insights to the study of nationalism and religious fundamentalism as channels of political mobilization. Throughout the course, the discussion of theoretical perspectives will be combined with analyses of selected case studies. 各週の主な授業内容: 1. Introduction.
