Realizing a better society
Economics is an academic discipline that forms the foundations for understanding the mechanisms of contemporary society. It analyzes the flow of things and money, business transactions and the wealth they produce, and how all of these mechanisms are established. In addition, economics provides an understanding of these mechanisms, enabling you to come up with “prescriptions” for numerous social issues and develop measures to tackle them. In that sense, economics is a source of knowledge that functions as “a doctor who diagnoses society.”
