授業の目的 【英語】 Goals of the Course | | The modern economy is determined by the market-oriented economic order which has been typically established in Europe and North America. However, it was the premodern community that has long been entrenched as the original form of human economic society. In this course, students deepen understanding of such premodern community and learn the historical foundations, background, and logic (especially in the West) of the collapse of such societies and the creation of modern market-oriented economy, on their own motive and interest, whereby the voluntary exploration ability will be fostered. |
