This subject is designed to help you learn "the so-called" humanities "thinking method" and "argument method" through studying the history of management (I understand).
The history of management cannot be fully understood simply by explaining the cause from the results using legal knowledge. Only by placing yourself in the position of the parties in each phase and following the process by which the parties make choices while anticipating future objective conditions can you understand why such choices were made and what the choices are in the outcome. It is possible to know what kind of influence it had. It is necessary to understand these things not from one's own senses and experiences, but as science, that is, by incorporating the purposes and motives of the parties into the causal relationship.
In this lecture, we will take up important aspects of management history and learn the decisions made there from the role played by the "idea" that affects or is constrained by history.
Please read the lesson abstract distributed in advance each time.
