本授業は、現代社会が直面する諸問題に関して、主として政治理論の領域において提出された多様な解答を考察することを目的とする。今日、象牙の塔に立て籠もり観想的な学問にとどまっていた従来の研究姿勢を反省して、哲学・倫理学・法哲学・公共経済学等の諸領域において、領域横断的にアクチュアルな課題に実践的に対応し、一定の処方箋を提示しようとする規範理論の構築が盛んになりつつある。政治理論も例外ではない。本授業では、このように他の学問領域と交錯しながら活発に展開されている現代政治理論の諸相を多面的に検討する。
しかしながら、現代規範理論は、過去の思想的遺産とけっして無縁ではなく、むしろその延長線上に構想されている。また、思想・理論は、現実と切り離されたところで空中楼閣の如くに成立するわけではなく、常に直接的、間接的に当該時代状況と真摯に向き合うなかから生み出される。従って、本授業では現代規範理論と政治思想史の両者の知見を比較対照しながら考察することによって、両者の連続性を明らかにすると同時に、逆に現代社会の特殊性を浮き彫りにすることを目的とする。

【大学院横断型教育の概要・目的】
本授業科目は公共政策大学院の基本科目であるが、現代社会においては社会正義に関する知識は公共的な職務に就く者のみならず、研究者を含めて理系・文系を問わずあらゆる職務・職業に従事する者にとって不可欠なものになりつつある。この授業では、正義に関する思想・哲学についての素養がなくても理解できる入門的な知識を提供することが目的である。

　現代規範理論の主な内容と議論状況を、現代社会の諸問題とのかかわり、および思想史的背景を踏まえつつ理解し、アクチュアルな公共的課題に実践的に応答するための資質と教養を身につけること。

授業は、教科書第1〜9章にそって、教員が配布する資料（レジュメ）を参照しながら、進められる。主として教員によるレクチャーというかたちをとるが、レジュメ記載の論点や例題を題材に、適宜受講生が発言する機会を設ける予定である。受講生一人ひとりの積極的な授業参加が求められる。

The objectives of this course are as follows: students' commitment to class will help them 1) to become competent readers of English who are able to grasp not only the outline but also the chief message(s) of a given/chosen text; 2) to improve general communication skills of English; 3) to acquire self-confidence necessary to read through and interpret substantial English texts, with the understanding that critical reading provides them with a powerful means for their intellectual explorations; 4) to expand their social, cultural and moral perspectives.

The course encourages students to read through an authentic English fictional work. By fulfilling activities and tasks which the course requires, students will learn to grasp the plot, the characters, their situations and the theme(s) of the text, and express their responses to the text in English. Students are encouraged to read and think a lot. The class begins with the understanding of the plot, the characters and their situations, and moves on to the discussion about the themes of the work.

Through committing themselves to the critical reading of the text, they are expected to improve not only reading skills but also overall communication skills of English--they will be able to acquire skills to grasp and respond to the text intellectually, organize their ideas and express them effectively in English. They are also expected to learn social, cultural and moral issues which the text addresses, and to apply their learning to their deeper understanding of issues which their own community or society might raise.

Course Description
The class deals with Robert Stevenson's Treasure Island. One class discusses two or three chapters (around 15 pages). The focus of each class is on the plot (who appears and what happens in each chapter), the characters, their situations, and the themes which the text explores. A reading comprehension quiz is given at the beginning of each class: the quiz is intended to help students to comprehend the text. Students are expected to complete the worksheets and submit them to the instructor. The submitted worksheets are to be checked, marked and returned to them. Preparation for class is required: students are expected to read the assigned chapters prior to class, and be ready for in-class discussion. All class activities are to be conducted in English.

Academic writing & listening

For the development of students' skills in English for General Academic Purposes (EGAP), English Writing-Listening A (EWLA) consists of three components: writing, listening, and vocabulary.

For practice with writing, students identify, recognize, or understand basic elements of academic writing and, then, recall and apply this knowledge in the process of organizing and revising a short academic essay of at least 300 words. Under the guidance of the instructor they learn necessary foundational academic writing skills as stated in the Course Goal section below.

For practice with listening, students take the online course known as GORILLA (Global Online Resources for International Language Learning Assistance) outside class. They are assessed on their listening proficiency through weekly online assignments, as well as the four tests that the instructor administers in class.

For vocabulary learning, students use the standard reference book titled “Kyoto University Vocabulary Database 1110.” Like the listening component, students independently study words from the general academic list that the instructor assigns (usually 50 words a week) and are tested on a number of these words weekly.

By the end of this course, students will acquire the following skills at varying levels. Students should be able to:
- Recognize and use basic academic words in English
- Process general academic discourse presented aurally
- Identify the locations, functions, and features of the standard elements of essay introduction paragraphs (i.e., hook, topic statements, general statements and thesis statement) and apply this knowledge to write suitable introduction paragraphs for short academic essays
- Identify the locations, functions, and features of the standard elements of body paragraphs (i.e., topic sentence, supporting sentences, detail sentences, concluding sentence) and apply this knowledge to write suitable body paragraphs for short academic essays
- Identify the locations, functions, and features of the standard elements of conclusion paragraphs (i.e., summary of main points, final statement) and apply this knowledge to write suitable conclusion paragraphs for short academic essays
- Recognize basic methods of maintaining the unity (e.g., definitions) and coherence (e.g., transitional words) of ideas in short academic essays, and apply this knowledge to writing.
- Recall and apply basic conventions (e.g., punctuation) when formatting short academic essays
- Understand basic paraphrasing techniques (e.g., using synonyms, changing structure) to integrate information from external sources, recognize basic citation conventions, and utilize this knowledge to avoid plagiarism
- Understand the writing process and utilize it for drafting and editing to produce short academic essays
- Combine knowledge of (i) the structure of a short academic essay, with allowances made for rhetorical style such as problem-solution and argumentation, and (ii) the writing process, and apply this knowledge to produce a short academic essay of at least 300 words

In-class activities are related to the contents of the textbook. Though there may be some adjustments in certain cases, the schedule of this course is as follows:

Chapter 1 Introduction to Academic Writing
Chapter 2 Paragraphs & Topic Sentences
Chapter 3 Supporting Sentences
Chapter 4 Paragraph Writing
Chapter 5 Writing Process
Chapter 6 Introduction Paragraph
Chapter 7 Conclusion Paragraph
Chapter 8 Citations & Paraphrase

Academic writing & listening

For the development of students' skills in English for General Academic Purposes (EGAP), English Writing-Listening A (EWLA) consists of three components: writing, listening, and vocabulary.

For practice with writing, students identify, recognize, or understand basic elements of academic writing and, then, recall and apply this knowledge in the process of organizing and revising a short academic essay of at least 300 words. Under the guidance of the instructor they learn necessary foundational academic writing skills as stated in the Course Goal section below.

For practice with listening, students take the online course known as GORILLA (Global Online Resources for International Language Learning Assistance) outside class. They are assessed on their listening proficiency through weekly online assignments, as well as the four tests that the instructor administers in class.

For vocabulary learning, students use the standard reference book titled “Kyoto University Vocabulary Database 1110.” Like the listening component, students independently study words from the general academic list that the instructor assigns (usually 50 words a week) and are tested on a number of these words weekly.

By the end of this course, students will acquire the following skills at varying levels. Students should be able to:
- Recognize and use basic academic words in English
- Process general academic discourse presented aurally
- Identify the locations, functions, and features of the standard elements of essay introduction paragraphs (i.e., hook, topic statements, general statements and thesis statement) and apply this knowledge to write suitable introduction paragraphs for short academic essays
- Identify the locations, functions, and features of the standard elements of body paragraphs (i.e., topic sentence, supporting sentences, detail sentences, concluding sentence) and apply this knowledge to write suitable body paragraphs for short academic essays
- Identify the locations, functions, and features of the standard elements of conclusion paragraphs (i.e., summary of main points, final statement) and apply this knowledge to write suitable conclusion paragraphs for short academic essays
- Recognize basic methods of maintaining the unity (e.g., definitions) and coherence (e.g., transitional words) of ideas in short academic essays, and apply this knowledge to writing.
- Recall and apply basic conventions (e.g., punctuation) when formatting short academic essays
- Understand basic paraphrasing techniques (e.g., using synonyms, changing structure) to integrate information from external sources, recognize basic citation conventions, and utilize this knowledge to avoid plagiarism
- Understand the writing process and utilize it for drafting and editing to produce short academic essays

Academic writing & listening

For the continued development of students' skills in English for General Academic Purposes (EGAP), English Writing-Listening B (EWLB) consists of three components: writing, listening, and vocabulary. EWLB aims to advance the skills in EGAP that students learned in EWLA.

For practice with writing, students analyze and evaluate basic elements of academic writing they learned in EWLA; they further identify, recognize, or understand more advanced elements; finally, they recall and apply all acquired knowledge in the process of producing an academic report of at least 1,000 words. By writing substantial academic reports more autonomously, students will acquire advanced academic writing skills as stated in the Course Goal section below.

For practice with listening, students take the online course known as GORILLA (Global Online Resources for International Language Learning Assistance) outside class. They are assessed on their listening proficiency through weekly online assignments, as well as the four tests that the instructor administers in class.

For vocabulary learning, students use the standard reference book titled “Kyoto University Vocabulary Database 1110.” Like the listening component, students independently study words from the general academic list that the instructor assigns (usually 50 words a week) and are tested on a number of these words weekly.

By the end of this course, students will acquire the following skills at varying levels. Students should be able to:
- Recognize and use basic academic words in English
- Process more advanced academic discourse presented aurally
- Analyze topics and develop suitable controlling ideas, thesis statements, and outlines for academic reports
- Analyze and evaluate the locations, functions, and features of the standard paragraph-level elements of an academic report (i.e., introduction, body, and conclusion paragraphs) and apply the analysis and evaluation when writing academic reports
- Analyze and evaluate the locations, functions, and features of the standard sentence-level elements (e.g., thesis statement, topic sentences, support sentences) and apply the analysis and evaluation when writing academic reports
- Recognize more advanced methods of maintaining the unity (e.g., repetition of key points) and coherence (e.g., quality of language) of ideas in academic reports, evaluate the unity and coherence of their writing, and apply the analysis and evaluation when writing.
- Utilize, with sufficient accuracy, a broad range of citation conventions when formatting academic reports
- Understand more advanced paraphrasing techniques to integrate information from external sources (e.g., summarizing, quoting), recognize and use more detailed citation conventions, and utilize this knowledge to avoid plagiarism
- Evaluate and integrate supporting evidence and sources to produce an academic report.
- Recognize the formatting conventions of an appropriate reference list and apply this knowledge to generate one for an academic report.
- Recognize particular styles and conventions within academic writing and adopt them appropriately
- Acquire a deeper understanding of the writing process in the production of academic reports after revising drafts with feedback
- Combine knowledge of (i) the structure of an academic report, with allowances made for rhetorical style such as argumentation and cause-effect, (ii) the writing process, and (iii) the evaluation and integration of supporting evidence and sources, and apply this knowledge to produce an academic report of at least 1,000 words
