 We watched a video focused on corporations. One of the themes of the video was "Corporations are groups which only work for their profits." Also, comments which have nuances that "Corporations are human which has every right which others have but who can only think about themselves" appeared a lot. From these two statements, corporations reflect as bad, evil guys, but it's true that an enormous number of those corporations  "the bad guy" are turning nowadays economics. I think we have to keep in mind this fact. Economics is having benefits from corporations but I don't think this is the correct appearance of economics. It's true that the corporation itself has problem, but the bigger problem is the system of economics. By improving the system corporation will not be at the core of economics and I think as a result this will change the corporation. (or smash corporations.)

 We learned about IMF and the surrounding incidents (or the "unfair" system of it). Mr.Paterson taught us about the system, reproducing the reality using students, their belongings, and (fake) money. IMF was first made to support poor country's development economically, but since development does not occur without technical power, supporting only with money can't make the development. To make the development poor countries get help from developed "rich" countries. In the return, poor countries give rights to deal with the natural resources of the country, or natural resources themselves. With the technical help of rich countries and economic help by IMF poor countries earn some developed cities and systems, but since they sold their natural resources, which were their only financial resources, they now have no money to pay back to IMF. This means that with a little development in poor countries, rich countries become richer and poor countries become poorer. ...

 At the beginning of the class, Mr.Paterson taught us some malicious incidents of Japanese food companies and food stores in Japan. It was a little shocking to know some gloomy facts and histories of Japan, but it wasn't a big shock. Japan's restrictions against food additives are very lenient. It shows how Japan thinks it's important to make foods priceless and a lot. I could predict japan's treatment of food easily from these facts.  We also learned about the world system theory. This is one of the perspectives to look at and explain the world's movement's system. This system explains not only today's world but also the history of the world. Searching about the system I felt that for a perspective to look at the world, this system is effective and we can earn a deeper understanding of the world, but an explanation of the history and the movement this system do not match. There's a possibility that until nowadays similar flows have been repeated but I t...
