  • Theme: Possibility and limitations of "fair trade" scheme and "contract farming" scheme
  • Course Outline and Objectives: There are various tools and mechanisms through which the human rights accountability of transnational corporations (TNCs) might be improved: (i) the responsibility of States in controlling TNCs; (ii) self-regulation by TNCs such as the use of codes of conduct and/or third-party regulation by independent certifiers such as socially and environmentally sustainable standard and labelling schemes; (iii) the use of incentive measures such as public procurement policies and conditionalities in multilateral lending policies; and (iv) direct imposition on TNCs of obligations under international law. What should not be ignored in this context is the role of civil society movements to put massive pressures from the bottom to the above and challenge the hegemonic regime controlled by TNCs. However, the power of business as a political actor is overwhelming the nation-states' as well as inter-governmental organisations' capacity to mediate between the market and society and to regulate TNC behaviour. The question to be tackled here is how and in what way these multi-layered and multi-actor governance tools and mechanisms are being developed and implemented to regulate TNCs and make them responsible for economic, social and cultural rights, including the right to food.
    Following up with what we learnt and discussed during the previous semesters, which focused on the general framework of global governance of food from a human-rights perspective, and existing and probable economic, legal and political tools (including CSR initiatives, social and environmental standards and certification schemes, and NGO-business interactions) to hold TNCs accountable for their negative impacts on society and the environment, we are going to dig deep into the possibility and limitations of "fair trade" scheme and "contract farming" scheme.
    This course is designed for any and all students with an interest in the globally pressing issues of agriculture and food governance, as well as transnational corporations in developing countries, from a wide range of social scientific perspectives: including international political economy, international relations, international law, agricultural economics, rural sociology, development studies, civil society studies, and so on. The primary language of instruction and discussions will be English.
  • Course Goals: Students are expected to learn different approaches and perspectives of global agri-food governance and their opportunities and limitations in the context of expanding corporate global agri-food chains; to learn how the idea of making transnational corporations accountable and responsible for the right to food (and other economic, social and cultural human rights) has developed and in what way it can be implemented and enforced on the ground. Students are also expected to obtain a critical insight into whatever contested issues over the relations between state actors, corporate actors, and civil society actors.

  • Theme: International Political Economy Approach to Food Security Governance
  • Course Outline and Objectives: This course is a seminar about international political economy of agriculture, with a series of topics on global food governance focused on existing and probable economic, legal and political tools to hold TNCs accountable for their negative impacts on society, human rights and the environment. For this semester, we are going to read together a book of "food security governance" to learn how relevant concepts of food security, food sovereignty, and the right to food are developed and in what way they are applied in the global as well as local-level political struggles over food governance, and to construct solutions to world food crises and agrarian and development problems.
    This course is designed for any and all students with an interest in the globally pressing issues of agriculture and food governance, as well as transnational corporations in developing countries, from a wide range of social scientific perspectives: including international political economy, international relations, international law, agricultural economics, rural sociology, development studies, civil society studies, and so on. The primary language of instruction and discussions will be English. Although the name of this course suggests that it is the continuation of the Spring semester's course "International Political Economy of Agriculture 1", actually it is other way around since many of expected participants are students of the International Graduate Programme for East Asia Sustainable Economic Development Studies, which academic year starts in October.
    • Course Schedule and Content: In this course, students will review the following literature.

      • Course Outline and Objectives: Following up with what we learnt and discussed during the previous semesters, which focused on the general framework of global governance of food from a human-rights perspective, and existing and probable economic, legal and political tools (including CSR initiatives and social and environmental standards and certification schemes) to hold TNCs accountable for their negative impacts on society and the environment, we are going to delve into the role of non-governmental organisations and civil society movements in light of an on-going trend of privatisation of global governance.

        • Theme: Multidisciplinary and Multidimensional Approach to Agri-food Governance Studies
        • Course Outline and Objectives: The last twenty years have seen a burgeoning of social scientific and historical research on food. Given a broad range of topics and aspects of food-related issues, the main objective of the course in this semester is to develop and attain a critical overview of the issues from multi-disciplinary and multi-dimensional perspectives, or through the lens of social, economic, political, geographical, psychological, cultural, nutritional and ecological studies. For this purpose, we are going to read a review handbook of international food research together and have in-depth interactive discussion. This course is a seminar about international political economy of agriculture, with a series of topics on global food governance focused on existing and probable economic, legal and political tools to hold TNCs accountable for their negative impacts on society, human rights and the environment. It is designed for any and all students with an interest in the globally pressing issues of agriculture and food governance, as well as transnational corporations in developing countries, from a wide range of social scientific perspectives: including international political economy, international relations, international law, agricultural economics, rural sociology, development studies, civil society studies, and so on. The primary language of instruction and discussions will be English.
          • Course Schedule and Content: The contents of the textbook (Anne Murcott, Warren Belasco, Peter Jackson (eds) The Handbook of Food Research, Bloomsbury Academic, 2013) are as follows:
            • Part One: Historical Essentials
            • Part Two: Frameworks of Provision: Production and Distribution
            • Part Three: Buying and Eating
            • Part Four: Contemporary Issues, Problems and Policy

          • Theme: Global Governance of Agriculture and CSR Initiatives of Agribusinesses
          • Course Outline and Objectives: According to the current U.N. Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food, Olivier De Schutter, there are various tools and mechanisms through which the human rights accountability of transnational corporations (TNCs) might be improved: (i) the responsibility of States in controlling TNCs; (ii) self-regulation by TNCs such as the use of codes of conduct and/or third-party regulation by independent certifiers such as socially and environmentally sustainable standard and labelling schemes; (iii) the use of incentive measures such as public procurement policies and conditionalities in multilateral lending policies; and (iv) direct imposition on TNCs of obligations under international law.

Following up with what we learnt and discussed during the previous semester, which focused on the general framework of global governance of food from a human-rights perspective, we are going to delve into existing and probable economic, legal and political tools (including CSR initiatives) to hold TNCs accountable for their massive negative impacts on wherever they are operating.

            • Theme: Global Governance of Agriculture and Possibilities/Limitations of Private Standards
            • Course Outline and Objectives: As a governance tool to address social and environmental externalities associated with the globalisation of commodity-value chains, we have observed the proliferation of market regulatory initiatives, such as labour, social and environmental standards (including certification and labelling schemes) for the management of natural resources during the past decade or so. These initiatives are usually described as “private standards” since they are designed, introduced and implemented largely by corporate actors on a voluntary basis (i.e. legally non-binding). One of the justifications is a shared understanding that existing multilateral and governmentally driven initiatives are incapable of addressing the global challenges. However, it is arguable whether private standards are effective and legitimate enough to address the unsustainable conditions of natural resources, food, labour and local communities. This course is designed for any and all students with an interest in the globally pressing issues of agriculture and food governance, as well as transnational corporations in developing countries, from a wide range of social scientific perspectives: including international political economy, international relations, international law, agricultural economics, rural sociology, development studies, civil society studies, and so on. The primary language of instruction and discussions will be English.
              • Course Schedule and Content: In this course, students will review the following literature on the effectiveness and legitimacy of private standards (voluntary certification and labelling schemes) as a global commodity governance and corporate regulatory tool, so that students can debate and understand in what way the idea of making transnational corporations accountable and responsible for the economic, social and cultural human rights (including the right to food) can be implemented and enforced on the ground.
                In the following semester (Spring 2014), our focus will be shifted to the role of civil society organisations and social movement vis-à-vis legal and institutional framework to regulate transnational corporations.

                  • 近年、WTO自由貿易レジームが行き詰まるも、TPP(環太平洋戦略的経済連携)協定をはじめとするFTA・EPAを通じた自由貿易路線への執着が露わとなっている。しかし、2007/08年に世界を震撼させた「世界食料危機」に引き続いて、早くも2010/11年には食料価格高騰が再来している。このような状況下、国際社会はあくまでも「飢餓と飽食」を誘発してきた自由貿易レジームの再編・強化の道を進むのか、それとも国連「食料への権利」論に象徴される国際人権レジームの構築を見据えた農業・食料の民主的ガバナンスへの転換を目指していくのかが問われている。本講義では、後者の道を展望するグローバル市民社会運動上の概念である「食料主権」論の可能性と課題について、政治経済学、国際法、農業経済学、農業社会学、市民社会論等の諸領域における研究成果を踏まえながら検討する。

                • Theme: Global Governance of Agriculture and Food Sovereignty (農業グローバル・ガバナンスと食料主権)
                • Course Requirements: Basic knowledge of political economy and agrarian issues are required. In the Spring semester of 2011, the course of International Political Economy of Agriculture 1 for the general course is planned to provide students with background information of global food governance and its implications for Japanese agriculture and food sector, mainly based on the literature of the controversial project of TPP agreement. Students are therefore encouraged to participate in that course (if possible), though the primary language of instruction and discussions will be Japanese.
                • Grading & Evaluation: Grading will be done on the basis of attendance, class participation, and occasional assigned presentations by each student. We use mainly English during the classes and therefore students are encouraged to use English for the assigned presentations, at least for the written summary of assigned part of the textbook even when students are incapable of giving a presentation in English.
                • Course Schedule and Content:
                  • This course will provide students with an overview of the ongoing debate on the global governance of agriculture and food, especially in light of the 2007/2008 as well as the 2010/2011 world food crises. We are now confronted with a question of which way we should follow: the path of WTO free trade regime based on the neoliberal ideology, including the proposed TPPA negotiation; or the path of democratic governance aimed to develop the international human rights regime, including the concept of food sovereignty and the right to food for all as discussed in the United Nations. This course is designed for any and all students with an interest in the globally pressing issues of agriculture and food governance from a wide range of social scientific perspectives, including international political economy, international relations, international law, agricultural economics, rural sociology, development studies, civil society studies, and so on. The primary language of instruction and discussions will be English, although Japanese will also be used during the class. In this course, students will review the following literature on the politics of food and food sovereignty, so that students can debate and understand how relevant concepts of food security, food sovereignty, and the right to food are developed and in what way they are applied in the political struggle over food governance, and then students can construct solutions to world food crises and agrarian and development problems.

                前期テーマ: 農業問題研究の古典を読む
                • 授業計画: 欧米農業社会学では、農業に特有な資本主義化の形態と道筋を「カウツキーの再発見」を通じて明らかにしてきた。すなわち、カウツキーは「農業は如何にして資本主義的となり、如何なる意味で資本主義化されるか、農業の特殊性は資本主義の中に如何なる姿をもって現れるか、それらは、相互に如何なる関係におかれるか、さらに資本家および工業プロレタリアートと如何なる関係に立つか、というような最も根本的な問題について深い行き渡った考察の結果を示している」(カウツキー『農業問題』岩波書店、訳者序文)。こうした「資本による農業の包摂subsumption」という視点が、彼らの問題意識の根底、農業問題研究の出発点にある。本授業では、原典=カウツキー『農業問題』に立ち返りながら、「資本主義社会における農業の発展」について考察を深めたい。

                後期当初テーマ: グローバル資本主義下における小農の主体性と対抗力を考える
                • 授業計画: 資本主義下における家族農業=小農の存続をどのように理解すべきかをめぐって、政治経済学や農業社会学の研究者は様々な議論を繰り広げてきた。古典的な農民層分解論が教えるところとは異なり、農業生産の領域に資本が浸透する仕方は、農場経営 (労働と土地) の直接的な支配権を掌握しなくても、例えば外部投入資材や信用貸付への依存、川上や川下の農業関連企業による垂直的調整や契約農業の進展など、間接的にも多様な形で行われていることは、アグリビジネス論的研究によって縷々明らかにされてきた。しかし、それでも存続する家族農業経営の将来展望をめぐっては、あくまでも「資本による農業の包摂」が拡大深化すると捉える構造主義的で法則論的な立場と、家族農業経営の能動性に着目し、むしろ「資本による農業の包摂」に柔軟に適応し、自らの領域を戦術的に確保しながら多様な事業展開を遂げうる行為主体と捉える機能主義的で状況依存論的な立場との乖離が見られる。本授業ではこれまで、本年度前期に取り上げるカウツキー「農業問題」再訪を含め、前者の政治経済学的な立場から「資本による農業の包摂」把握に努めてきたが、本年度後期は後者の立場を代表する欧州農村社会学ワーヘニンゲン学派の代表的な文献を取り上げながら、家族農業経営ないし小農の主体性と能動性、多国籍アグリビジネスに主導される農業の工業化とグローバル化に対する適応力と対抗力の如何を検討する。

                • テーマ: グローバル資本主義下の国家と市民社会を把握するための諸理論
                • 授業計画: 農業・食料を取り巻く諸問題と政策展開は、これまで国民国家(国家政策、国家間関係)の枠内で議論されることが多かった。しかし、農業・食料の生産・流通・消費の構造は国境を越えて広がり、そこに関与するアクター(利害関係主体)も、各国政府機関から国連機関やブレトンウッズ機関、WTO等の国際機関へ、農民団体から広範かつグローバルな市民社会組織へ、国内企業・産業団体から多国籍企業および国際的産業団体やシンクタンクへと拡大しており、これらのアクターが物質的・非物質的な影響力の行使を通じて利害を調整する過程をリアルかつ批判的に捉える分析枠組みが、いまや不可欠となっている。そこで本授業では、前後期を通じて国家論および市民社会論に関する文献を複数とりあげながら、グローバル化時代の国家と市場と市民社会を捉える視点について議論し、認識を深めていきたい。なお、昨年度のテーマである「農業社会学・農業政治経済学の国際的潮流と分析概念・理論枠組み」についても、引き続き国際農業分析ワークショップでとりあげる予定である。不定期開催なので、参加希望者は事前に確認すること。

                • 当初授業計画: 現代社会のあらゆる領域に大きな影響を及ぼす多国籍企業のグローバルな事業展開に対して、社会的批判が世界的に高まっている。これまで、国連機関やOECDが多国籍企業の行動規範づくりに重要な役割を果たしてきたが、近年はむしろ企業の側が自主的に行動規範イニシアチブを提起し、積極的に導入する動きが注目されるようになっている。こうした「企業の社会的責任(CSR)」イニシアチブは、とりわけ環境負荷や食品リスク、動物福祉、農場労働者の権利、途上国農村開発などの問題を抱える農業・食料セクターにおいて顕著である。多国籍アグリビジネスを事例とする実証研究を進めていく前提として、「企業の社会的責任」をめぐる理論と実践が国際経営学や途上国開発研究などの分野でどのように議論されているのか、国際政治経済学(および農業社会学)の視角から批判的に検討してみたい。
