授業の概要と方法
The primary focus of this course is to introduce students to the fundamental characteristics of American public law and government. We will examine the U.S. constitution and case law to discuss subjects including sources of U.S. law, the three branches of government, criminal law, civil rights, ethics, and other aspects of public law. We will also discuss contemporary issues in American law, politics, and society.
In addition to reviewing the principles of U.S. law, the course will develop the students’ critical thinking skills. Students are expected to answer questions when called upon, and interact with the instructor and classmates.
