<概要/Course Content Summary>

Contents 
Students need to understand several aspects of globalization or glocalization theoretically and practically: international impacts of macroeconomic policies (Abenomics), transfer of industrial agglomeration, successful strategies in emerging markets, theories on competitive advantage of a certain industry in a certain country, world economic crisis, and so on. In so doing, you also need to clearly distinguish between globalization and glocalization. Glocalization is more important than globalization. Then, students are required to consider what skills are necessary for becoming a global business person, based on the understanding of the current economic globalization and glocalization. What do you need to study in the university for becoming a competent global business person in the future? 
 
Keywords 
Globalization, Glocalization, Abenomics, Competitive Advantage, Industrial Agglomeration. 
 
Features of Classes 
This course consists of lectures, class discussion, and presentation. Students are required to make contributions in the classes of this course. Class contributions are crucial, and thus you need to attend all the classes in this course. 
 
Important Notice: 
The number of registered students is limited in this course. If the number of applicants exceeds the limited number, some students cannot take this course. Thus you need to carefully consider whether you should take this course or not. If you cancel the registration, it means that another student will lose the opportunity to take this course although he/she wants to do so. Senior students who are busy hunting a future job should avoid registering for this course because they often find difficulties participating in classes.You should note that students are required to ask relevant questions and make comments in classes. If you do not want to do so, you should carefully consider 
whether you want to register for this course or not. In addition, the tutor is not a native speaker of English. 
 
このコースは人数制限が課せられています。人数制限以上の登録があると,抽選となります。したがって,出席するつもりがない人は最初から登録しないでください。特に就活で忙しい4年生の履修はお勧めしません。毎年,登録しても一度も来ない学生がいますが,出席したいのに抽選ではずれた学生が出ていることに配慮してください。また,登録後に履修キャンセルすることはできますが,その場合も抽選ではずれた人の機会を奪っていることになっています。よく考えてください。必ずしも高い英語力を求めません。英語力が高くなくても,なんとか参加して何か話す気構えがあれば,完走はできます。なお,授業内で発言することが求められていますので,そうすることが嫌な人は履修登録しないでください。例年,このことが原因で,履修キャンセルする人が非常に多くになっています。また,担当講師はネイティブスピーカーではありません。
