Course description
Think about goods and money in modern society .

While financial globalization develops, the phenomena for which self-sufficient economy is left can be found here and there without accomplishing commodity economy in spite of an advanced and a developing country. Concretely, they're the dealings which emphasized a relation between a person and a person as mutual help, donation, mutual aid and cooperation. These are "production according to another Circulation system" and something you can say which don't need to achieve the value of anything (labor input) again without always mediating between money. The virtual money like "bit coin" and "fin Tech." also appears recently.
I approach an essential proposition in the modern society which says some money in many ways with goods by this seminar.
