Global Simulation Gaming (GSG) is a "role-playing game of international relations." This course aims to closely simulate an actual international negotiation with various actors and advance GS and IR Majors' integration. In GSG, all participants play a role in international relations and experience the simulated process of diplomacy, such as agenda-setting, policy formulation, negotiation, and policy implementation within a global society's dynamics. Until the GSG day, students must grasp the present state of affairs of the assigned country/organization and the political, social, and economic relationships with its related actors. Students are also expected to learn the rules of the game. The course will consist of guidance sessions, preliminary study sessions, mini-GSG, the actual GSG event and post-gaming review sessions.

The College of International Relations emphasizes GSG, as an overall summary of introductory-level education while at the same time acting as a bridge to more specialized education. By participating in GSG, students may deepen their understanding of international issues, and clarify their study objectives from the second year onwards. For this reason, GSG is classified as a compulsory course for all second and third-semester students. GSG is also positioned as a part of small group courses during the four years of study. The goal of Global Simulation Gaming (GSG) is for students to experience the dynamism of international relations through simulated gaming, which they cannot get by sitting in a classroom. All students become members of actor groups (players in international relations). One of its goals is to motivate students to raise issues, do research and solve problems while cultivating their initiatives. At the same time, students will learn media literacy by experiencing the interactive transmission and reception of knowledge and information through web conferencing systems, video streaming, and websites in face-to-face classes.

There are classes both in English and Japanese in preparation for the GSG event. To promote communication and integration between GS and IR majors, both languages will be used on the day of the event for negotiations and presentations while ensuring that English will be used as an official language when any student does not understand Japanese.

・To cultivate knowledge and understanding of international affairs through multiple views, and to be able to act based on such knowledge and understanding.
・To understand the reality of international society by experiencing agenda-setting, policy formulation and diplomatic negotiations.
・To learn from each other (peer learning).
・To develop one’s study objectives based on the activities above.

The course will proceed on the assumption that students have already taken International Relations A and B, the core courses for first-year students.

Research about the assigned "actor" is essential. A deep understanding of the political-economic context and issues, relationship with other actors, etc. will enable productive gaming. Make sure to maintain regular contact with the actor's members (e.g. state, organization, etc.) to develop diplomatic strategies for the GSG day.
