Hong Hoon: What is market fundamentalism?

The idea of marketism was presented by a professor of the annual economics department, Professor Hong Hing-hoon, who is a science science student of Marxism, to understand and criticize marketism. South Korea has experienced economic growth since the 1960s, the democracy of 1987, and the 1997 foreign exchange crisis. And the new liberalism and globalization that have been going on since the end of the 20th century is transforming the world into a market economy and a market society. Korean society is also affected by this. As a result, democracy has also created marketism in Korea, actively advocating the market economy. “As democracy is the ideology and system, so is marketism. Marketing is also a marketist's ideal, his reality, his theory, his ideas, his thoughts and his actions. Marketism as an ideology is a belief or belief in markets, and marketism as a system is a market economy. And that's an economist's theory of arguing for the efficiency of markets, and it's a idea shared by most members of society. And it's a mental notion, an act of the economy self and its actions. So, marketism in our society, with its many forms of thought, theory and reality, is said to be out of the reach of many people. Because they just memorize or take a piece of the economic ideas and the economic concepts that fly everywhere. The author says that the idea of advocating market and the pro-commercial economics that has been around us for over half a century is not fully evaluated, but that it's also a greater problem with our capacity to adopt marketism.
