the same time as the announcement of the public defense. Furthermore, the dissertation will be madeavailable at the Library of the Graduate School of Economics for readers to browse from the time ofannouncement until the public defense of the doctoral dissertation. During this period, photocopying of the dissertation will not be allowed.

5) (For reference) The public defense of the doctoral dissertation may be composed of 2 parts: the first partmay be the presentation of the degree applicant (30 minutes to 1 hour; 30 to 40 minutes allotted forquestions and answers); and the second part may be the actual examination between the applicant and the examiners (at least 30 minutes).The actual time allocation, the working language to be used during the presentation and discussion, andother related matters are determined and decided accordingly by the lead examiner.

6) In principle, the public defense is held in a seminar room. Anyone can participate in the public defense.However, the lead examiner has the authority to demand any participant to leave the room based on theparticipant’s conduct and speech.

7) The examiners submit a “Degree Examination Report” to the Graduate School Council Meeting after thepublic defense. The Graduate School Council Meeting will deliberate the report and when it is approved, adoctoral degree will be conferred to the student.The doctoral degree is generally conferred on 23rd of each odd-numbered month (if it falls on Saturday,Sunday, or Holiday, the following weekday will be allotted).Doctoral degree conferment is scheduled twice a year (September and March).

The “readings” course series in the field of economic and business history are designed to provide an opportunity to have anintense academic dialogue with ‘classic’ and recent influential works (including books and journal articles) in the field of global-and Japanese economic history. The idea is to tackle these works in full in their original form and not just by reference to them insummarized secondary accounts.The main theme of the “readings” course in 2019 is ‘Historical trajectories of national and global industries in the twentiethcentury’.We will discuss the topics and approaches of three prominent scholars: 1) “From Empire to Europe” by Geoffrey Owen; 2)“Manufacturing Possibilities” by Gary Herrigel, and; 3) the works of Andrew Gordon. Reading these texts deeply, offers theopportunity to consider the current use of methods and approaches that are applied in economic and business history across theglobe, and to contemplate the future prospects and direction of our field.This course is co-taught by three economic/business historians (Watanabe, Kurosawa, and Tanaka), and all students who studyunder their supervision are strongly encouraged to attend this course, irrespective of their programme, grade, main researchlanguage, and research topics.

[Textbook]

[Class requirement]1.For students who do not have experience studying Economic History we recommend that they also attend the course“Economic & Business History”.2.Attendance to the course "Business History & Industry Studies Readings A" (spring-summer semester) is also recommended.

[Method, Point of view, and Attainment levels of Evaluation]Methods:-presentation and contribution to the discussion: 50%-short writing assignments: 50%Evaluation criteria:Understanding the basic topics, major debates and basic historiography in economic history, and the capability to draw widerimplications from that knowledge.

[Course Goals]The goal of this course is for students to gain a deep knowledge of the works we cover, not only in their content, but also inappreciating the methods used, wider implications, and most of all the way such comprehensive works are designed, organizedand put together. Students will acquire active knowledge of what goes into making a comprehensive and coherent work ineconomic/business history and will thus be able to apply it to their own research.

The course is divided into three parts in which we work through a book (or one author’s works) in each part. Students areexpected to attend and participate in all parts. Each week there will be short presentations followed by class discussion whichrequires that students prepare by doing the assigned reading.1.

[Class requirement]Nothing in particular[Method, Point of view, and Attainment levels of Evaluation]Students' final grade will be based on participation throughout the course and the final project (two options).

Final project (option 1): Working individually or in small groups (two to three people), students will be expected to write aproposal (maximum 3,000 words) for how they would go about implementing a development intervention. For example, aproject for installing sanitation stations in a rural area, or an advocacy campaign to increase awareness on women's rights.Students are free to choose topics that interest them. These proposals are not expected to be completely professional, butshould demonstrate students' best effort to create a realistic plan that incorporates course materials and discussions.

Final project (option 2): Working individually or in small groups (two to three people). Write an essay (maximum 3,000 words)that analyzes “two sides” of development. Specifically, compare and contrast two ways of thinking about and/or doingdevelopment. For example, you can compare/contrast JICA vs NGO's approach, practices and/or policies to development work.Another example is to write the strengths and weaknesses of “two sides”. Essays should be largely based on the lectures but

The overarching theme of this course is how to understand evolving food governance at the global, national and local levels byreferring to various IPE and sociological frameworks and concepts; how to investigate (dialectical) power relations behind andwithin it, especially by explaining how actors link up in corporate global food chains as well as in local food networks; and how toaddress food security, justice and sustainability issues by being informed of the concept, discourse and movement of “foodsovereignty” and "sustainable development". In this semester, the course will be for students to review a book on therelationship between food, society and the environment through a lens of the critical sociology of food and agriculture.

[Reference books, etc.]（Reference books）Recommended reading materials will be made available through the course mailing list and/or a cloud system.

Students are required to read the assigned book chapters for each class as well as other relevant reading materials so that theywill be able to actively participate in discussions.

[Class requirement]Students who are willing to take this course are recommended to take another course in this semester: either or both of "PoliticalEconomy of Governance" given by Dr. Haja Rajaonarison (with Prof Shuji Hisano), and "Comparative Development Studies" givenby Prof Raymond Jussaume Jr. and Prof Maria Fonte (with Prof Shuji Hisano). The former is focused more on food governanceand power relations at the global level, while the latter is more about local level governance and alternative food initiatives.

[Method, Point of view, and Attainment levels of Evaluation]Grading will be carried out on a basis of active class participation and chapter summary presentation.

[Course Goals]This course aims to help students familiar with basic theoretical frameworks and concepts for understanding the food andagriculture system, the relationship between social structure, agency and issues of power, and a transformative perspectivetowards just and sustainable food and agriculture.

[Outline and Purpose of the Course]Day/period Wed 3 Class style Lecture English

This course will be given by Prof Shuji Hisano and Dr Haja Rajaonarison together.

Part I --- Theories and ConceptsWeek 1: Introduction to International Political Economy and global reorderingWeek 2: Theoretical Perspectives and Contemporary Debates in IPE 1 (Realist approach, Liberalist approach)Week 3: Theoretical Perspectives and Contemporary Debates in IPE 2 (Marxian approach, Constructivist approach, Post-structuralist approach)

Part II --- Actors in the Global Political EconomyWeek 4: Actors in the Global Political Economy: State ActorsWeek 5: Actors in the Global Political Economy: International OrganizationsWeek 6: Actors in the Global Political Economy: Club ForumsWeek 7: Actors in the Global Political Economy: Market ActorsWeek 8: Actors in the Global Political Economy: Non-Governmental Organizations

1. Rationale/IntroductionMore than ever, the world has experienced major upheaval in recent decades. Phenomena such as power vacuum in Westerndemocracies, the fourth industrial revolution, vulnerability in the digital world, the rise of nationalism, to name but a fewexamples, undermine the world economic order. In addition, tensions between Great powers continue to escalate, particularlyin the case of China, Russia and the United States against the backdrop of political gerrymandering, currency and industrial wars.Across the way, the poor countries are puzzled to find which way the wind is blowing to keep track of their development agenda.In an increasingly integrated world, these events have an impact on global governance. In its broadest definition, internationalpolitical economy (IPE) refers to the interactions between the economic sphere and the political sphere and between thenational and the international. While the IPE discipline emphasises the national and international, it is above all amultidisciplinary academic field of International Relations that is informed by international politics, international economics,cultural studies and history.

2. The aim of the courseBuilding on recent global issues, this course aims to familiarise students with the theoretical tools of the IPE. These includedynamic links between markets, States, institutions and civil society in the regional and global context. The course thus coversthe main theories, concepts and thematic issues, including international institutions, international trade, international finance,international development and the consequences and controversies of globalisation. As an approach, the themes examinedfocus on the main issues and actors that shape global economic policy and global governance. By so doing as well as byquestioning power and politics, apolitical and functional understandings of the concept of “global governance”, i.e. multi-actorand multi-level political decision-making and implementation, will be challenged. Throughout the course, agriculture and foodissues are often referred to so that students can easily bridge the theories and concepts to the realities. This is not only becausethe two instructors have their own expertise in IPE of agricultural development and food security, but also because agricultureand food are a nexus of politics, economy, society and culture, a nexus of global, regional, national and local, and thereforecritical to grasping the international political economy at work.

[Course Goals]

Part III --- Thematic Issues in IPE of GovernanceWeek 9: Global Food Governance: Global food security and food sovereigntyWeek 10: The Governance of Global Trade: “Emerging” powers and the proliferation of free trade agreements (TTIP, CETA, TiSA,JEFTA, TPP, and EU-MERCOSUR)Week 11: The IPE of Transnational Corporations: Private agri-food governance, transnational production and the global divisionof labourWeek 12: The Governance of Primary Commodity: Resource competition and energyWeek 13: The Global Climate GovernanceWeek 14: The Global Governance of Development: Beijing Consensus vs Washington consensusWeek 15: Global Inequality and Economic Development

Students are required to read chapters of the textbook and other reading materials for each class so that they will be able toactively participate in discussions. Students are also assigned to submit an analytical summary of the assigned readings forseveral classes.

Analytical summary of one or two assigned readings for each class must be 400-500 words (one-page A4) consisting of threeparts: summary, integration, and questions/reactions. The detail will be instructed at the first introduction class.

Anwar Shaikhの2016年の著書Capitalism: Competition, Conflict, Crisesをテキストに使用し、新古典派経済学との理論的違いを明らかにしながら、また、具体的経済データも参照しながら、古典派、ケインズ派およびポスト・ケインズ派経済学の基礎を学ぶ。

Neoclassical economical theory uses aspects of perfect functioning of markets as part of its basic assumptions and introducesimperfections as analysis proceeds forward. Many types of heterodox economics insist on dealing with imperfect competitionbut project backwards to a previous perfect state.In Capitalism, Anwar Shaikh demonstrates that most of the central propositions of economic analysis can be derived withoutany reference to hyperrationality, optimization, perfect competition, perfect information, representative agents or so-calledrational expectations. These include the laws of demand and supply, the determination of wage and profit rates, technologicalchange, relative prices, interest rates, bond and equity prices, exchange rates, terms and balance of trade, growth,unemployment, inflation, and long booms culminating in recurrent general crises.In every case, Shaikh's theory is applied to modern empirical patterns and contrasted with neoclassical, Keynesian, and PostKeynesian approaches to the same issues. The object of analysis is the economics of capitalism, and economic thought on thesubject is addressed in that light. This is how the classical economists, as well as Keynes and Kalecki, approached the issue.Anyone interested in capitalism and economics in general can gain a wealth of knowledge from this ground-breaking text.(from https://global.oup.com/academic/product/capitalism-9780199390632?cc=jp&lang=en&)

This course is interactive and designed for a relatively small number of students. Its goal is to help the students not just learnabout the main concepts and theories in institutional economics, but also how to apply these in practice to analyze particulardeveloping and emerging economies. The idea behind the course is that the quality of a country's institutions matter greatly forits economic development, and that the divergence of development paths can be at least partly explained by the cross-countryvariation in the quality of institutions. At the end of the course, the students should be able to apply the institutional approach tothe analysis of individual country cases, as well as to cross-country comparisons.During the course we will also seek answers to the following questions: (1) what policies and institutions are needed to achievesuccessful economic development? (2) why do similar economic reforms succeed in some countries but fail in others? (3) howcan we explain variations in the long-run economic performance among various developing and emerging countries?

[Textbook]Here are some of the books that we've used in previous classes:1. John Groenewegen et al., Institutional Economics: An Introduction, Palgrave2. Acemoglu D. and J.
