Note on Content:

📜 This course is rooted in Classical Economic Theory, which emerged during the Enlightenment in Western Europe in the 1700s. The foundational concepts of private property, market economies, and financial independence are key themes throughout the course.

🏦 This class assumes wealth accumulation is a societally acceptable pursuit and recognizes lending, investment, and ownership as crucial financial skills. The core ideas align with John Locke’s principles on the right to hold and accumulate private property.

🌍 While these concepts apply broadly in market and mixed economies, this course does not focus on command-based systems or hyper-local economic conditions.

📢 Language Proficiency Notice:
Students will engage with complex financial and business terminology. A strong command of English is required to fully grasp the material, as the course moves at an intense pace.
