Introduction to Human Geography
講義概要
/Course description
The purpose of this course is to introduce students to the field of Human Geography. Geography deals with the study of location of people and their activities across the earth’s surface and the interactions between them. It focuses on the spatial aspects of the population growth and distribution, cultural differentiation, urban growth and decline, the diffusion of ideas and innovation, the location of economic activities, the regional development issues. Sub-fields of study will be introduced including population, urban, economic, cultural, and political geography. Human geography is a broad dynamic field that considers the development and the conditions in the contemporary world. Geography is an academic discipline with its own tradition, objectives, and approaches to the changing world. Students will be able to learn to interpret data and trends with a focus on space and time. The importance of place, environment, boundaries, territory and others will be emphasized as well. However, social networks (such as Facebook for example) are changing the way we live, communicate with others people, and the representation of the space we have. In addition, attention to mapping and others approaches common to the field of geography will be introduced. Recent viewpoints and current events in relation with the globalization processes relevant to the course themes will be used with specific case studies. Human Geography is certainly a very valuable course to understand the current world we live in.
