Module Outline (brief description of content)
Western economics is a high generalization of western economic development since the development of western market economy, which unilaterally reflects the economic development trend of western countries. Comparing the western economic development concept with China's, we can see that there are many differences, and the most different between the two sides is the historical background, so most of the Western ideas can hardly be applied to China's economy. Case teaching method can make up for this defect, and use many practical cases to objectively show western economics, so that students can better understand western economics, so as to help students better understand the basic theoretical knowledge of Western economics and master its principles .
