課程簡介Course Description

We are living in a time of global migration. Why do people migrate? What is the role of migrant labor? How does migration change a receiving society like Taiwan? What are the problems or struggles that migrants are facing? In this course, we answer the above question and understand the global problems surrounding migration through ten keywords: media, migrant workers, border, broker, refugee, gender and marriage, racism and discrimination, destination, identity, migrant placemaking, nostalgia, and migrant mothers. This semester we will focus on the theme of migrant food culture, and through several workshops, we will have a better understanding of the interactive relationship between migrants and food culture. Moreover, this course collaborates with the “Inclusive Innovation” University Social Responsibility (USR) project. Through field visit, workshop, social practice and final exhibition, this course guides students to understand the immigrant society they live in and to fulfill the social responsibilities of teachers and students. 

我們身處於國際遷移與流動的年代,「移民與文化的十個關鍵字」課程將透過十個關鍵字,讓學生能夠了解圍繞著移民現象所衍生的問題,包括:人們為何遷移?移民會面對哪些困難和挑戰?移工在社會中扮演何種角色?新移民與移工如何改變台灣社會?這些關鍵字包括邊界、中介、難民、性別與婚姻、種族歧視、遷移的目的地、認同、移民空間、鄉愁、母職。這學期我們將圍繞在移民飲食文化的主題,透過數個工作坊,更加了解移民與飲食文化的互動關係。透過參訪、工作坊、社會實踐與期末展覽,本課程引導學生認識身處的移民社會,從大學生的知識和能力建構出發,善盡師生之社會責任
