Modules

The modules are the essential building blocks of the platform. They present in detail the key concepts and common preconceived notions surrounding major economic issues.

  • Introduction Economic activity (purchasing, production, distribution, sales, consumption, waste management) is largely carried out through monetary transactions, where the good or service sold and purchased is at a price accepted by both buyer and seller.

  • Understanding and defining inequalities: Here, we explore their multidimensional and environmental aspects, as well as their evolution, causes and consequences.

  • Introduction Economic life is based on five main categories of economic agents: households, public administrations, commercial and financial companies and social economy structures.

  • Accounting is much more than an auxiliary or neutral tool: it is the basis of many of our economic representations and reasonings.

  • Neither GDP nor its continued growth allow us to take into account planetary limits and social justice.

  • Public debt and deficit are essential political tools, but they are only approached from the angle of budgetary rigor. Explanation and deciphering.

  • Understand the fundamental role of finance, its excesses and limitations, and how it can be reoriented to serve the ecological transition.

  • Module

    The currency

    Understand why, far from being neutral, money and monetary policy play a central role in our economies.

  • Economy, natural resources and pollution are intrinsically linked. There is no single solution to the ecological crisis.
