TMA 612 - Civilization and Economics

The main objective of this course is to analyze the relationship between civilization and economics throughout the ages. The course will focus on the developments in this field from the period when human beings settled down to the birth of modern economics and even today's economics-civilization debates. Different civilization basins fed by different value systems may have different conceptions of production, distribution, property, etc. The conception of production, distribution, property, etc. may differ. It can be said that there is almost a general agreement that religion is the most important factor affecting the value system of different civilization basins in pre-modern societies. Therefore, in this course, the relationship between religion, economics and civilization will be discussed separately. It is known to everyone who holds a pen that in the process of transition from traditional societies to modern societies with the acceleration of globalization, a new understanding of economics and a new conception of civilization emerged. In this course, special attention will be paid to the analysis of the developments that emerged with this period.
