本課程設定為大學通識社會選修課程，目標為豐富學生對於當代資本主義現象與自我發展之深入探討，理解自我與金錢觀念的社會建構意涵。
本課程主要內涵為：以當代金錢與市場現象，以及社會衝突為切入點，從個體的金錢故事為起點，探索自我形成、社會關係、社會交換、權力、階級、異化、商品化、意識型態、社會衝突等議題。
回顧台灣社會三十年來，社會貧富兩極化、普遍的金錢匱乏感、不確定性的恐懼、金融泡沫化現象，以及消費社會中各種青年貧窮化現象，逐漸成為全球資本主義社會生活的基本特徵。在此社會脈絡下，「金錢」與「市場」邏輯成為政府引導公共資源分配的核心邏輯，台灣從市場經濟轉向市場社會，金錢邏輯滲透傳統非市場領域，以及影響台灣社會發展方向的意識型態。同時，在日常生活的層次，「金錢」與「市場」也成為人們理解「自我價值」、「尊嚴」，以及建構「社會關係」的行動邏輯，成為個人自我治理的核心。同時，市場化的價值觀逐漸滲透到各個「非市場領域」，包括政治、教育、醫療、宗教、家庭乃至於個人日常生活等，金錢作為全球化時代的「治理」概念，同時也帶來了更為全面且深入的社會衝突。
藉由課程討論，希望為學生帶來新的金錢觀念的可能性，同時理解在高度資本主義時代，個人如何重新理解金錢、自我、與社會的關係。
本課程將針對金錢、工作、消費、公共資源分配等議題，帶領學生探索自我與台灣社會的近代發展，以及當前社會衝突現象的社會根源。This course is designed as a general social science elective course at the university. The goal is to enrich students' in-depth exploration of contemporary capitalist phenomena and self-development, and to understand the social construction implications of self- and money concepts.
The main content of this course is: taking contemporary money and market phenomena, as well as social conflicts as the starting point, starting from individual money stories, exploring self-formation, social relations, social exchange, power, class, alienation, commodification, and ideology , social conflicts and other issues.
Looking back over the past thirty years in Taiwanese society, social polarization between rich and poor, widespread lack of money, fear of uncertainty, financial bubble phenomena, and various youth impoverishment phenomena in consumer society have gradually become basic features of life in global capitalist societies. In this social context, the logic of "money" and "market" has become the core logic for the government to guide the allocation of public resources. Taiwan has shifted from a market economy to a market society. The logic of money has penetrated into traditional non-market fields, as well as the ideology that affects the direction of Taiwan's social development. . At the same time, at the level of daily life, "money" and "market" have also become the logic of action for people to understand "self-worth" and "dignity" and construct "social relationships", becoming the core of personal self-governance. At the same time, market-oriented values have gradually penetrated into various "non-market fields", including politics, education, medical care, religion, family and even personal daily life. Money, as a "governance" concept in the era of globalization, has also brought about more A comprehensive and in-depth social conflict.
Through course discussions, we hope to bring students the possibility of a new concept of money, and at the same time understand how individuals can re-understand the relationship between money, self, and society in the era of high capitalism.
This course will focus on issues such as money, work, consumption, and distribution of public resources, leading students to explore themselves and the modern development of Taiwanese society, as well as the social roots of current social conflicts.
