Culture has a visible side—food, clothing, architecture—and a invisible side of unconscious beliefs, values, and assumptions. In this course we will compare and discuss different ways of thinking between Japan and the US as well as deepening our understanding of American culture. The course is designed for anyone who is interested in living and studying in the US. |
