【Course Objectives】

"The objectives of the course are:(1)To grasp the essence of capitalism, which is becoming increasingly opaque. (2)To understand the essence of economic thought and social ideas from historical giants in the field. Subsequently, to explore the relationship between human nature and the structures of contemporary economics and society."

【Course Contents】

"We will explore the essence of contemporary economics and issues related to human beings by examining concepts such as desire, the market, and rationality from multiple perspectives. At this juncture, where does the place of humans lie? How should we approach the seemingly escalating alienation in modern society, where systems are becoming more powerful?
By delving into the possibilities of the thoughts of past 'giants of economics' and reconsidering issues through the frameworks of sociology, philosophy, and other social sciences, we aim to decipher the composition of contemporary society with a broad perspective. Where did the true intention of the 'father of economics,' Adam Smith, lie? We will critically examine the ideas of giants such as Keynes, Marx, Schumpeter, Hayek, Veblen, and contemplate their contemporary significance.
When we reinterpret the phenomenon of 'economics' as a narrative woven by individuals, society, and the times, new perspectives emerge. I hope that this will be an opportunity for us to think together about the reconstruction of the relationships between individuals and economics, as well as individuals and society."
