Specifically, the talk will explore the process of turning from the sociology of leisure that emerged in the late 1950s and 1970s to leisure studies after the mid-1970s. This process shows that the subject of leisure intersects in various ways with issues regarding \u201cdisparity\u201d in the broad sense, and the essential aspect of leisure becomes clear as the origin of those intersections. In light of the above, this talk attempts to provide a framework on how the concept of leisure can be used to address the issue of \u201cdisparity,\u201d with a view to the urban and information environments of the 21st century.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u3010<\/strong>Organizer<\/strong>\u3011<\/strong><\/p>\n \u30fbOrganizer: B\u2019AI Global Forum, Institute for AI and Beyond at the University of Tokyo<\/p>\n \u30fbCo-organizer: Leisure Studies Kenkyukai<\/em>, and the Association for Leisure and Tourism Studies<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u3010<\/strong>Inquiry<\/strong>\u3011<\/strong><\/p>\n Yuko Itatsu (Associate Professor, College of Arts and Sciences, University of Tokyo)<\/p>\n itatsu[at]boz.c.u-tokyo.ac.jp (Please change [at] to @)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The B\u2019AI Global Forum will hold a talk by Takato O<\/p>\n
