Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have made research on the social and economic thoughts which not only concerns quantities related to markets but also qualities of the integration and maintenance of nation-states or transnational units. We have looked into several thoughts in the historical context of interwar period and their successive development until to our present time. Besides, we have analyzed the importance of social movements to transform the problematic governance on economic issues, especially with a case of the African Continent, as well as of Ryukyu Islands, where old and new hegemony have been demonstrating for each other and conflicting for domination. Having discussed these changing contemporary conditions with important activists for social movement as well as scholars and professionals on Oeconomia, we came to the conclusion that the monetary and financial markets and the factor of debt are of most importance.
