Outline:
In terms of efficiency (effective use of resources) and fairness (social justice), we will create a "power to see various economic phenomena".
This leads to the formation of a theoretical framework that allows us to consider the meaning of our own decision-making within the entire economy when we need to make a variety of decisions in our global business.
Style:
In order to develop into economics II, we will be aware of the lecture development that will lead to understanding without overcrowd.
