돈의 사회적 가치와 의미 탐색

Abstract

The aim of this story is to represent through novel writing the way financial subjects of different generations give social value and meaning to money based on financial education at home. The research results are briefly presented as follows. The main characters in the novel used money in different ways depending on the socioeconomic conditions and context of their lives, and the social meaning and value assigned to money was also different. However, despite the three generations in the novel having different values and meanings surrounding the use of money, they each showed similarities in seeking liberation from labour and money in their own way. Ultimately, the social meaning and value attached to the use of money changed depending on socioeconomic and historical conditions and the context of individual life. However, money was a social apparatus and mechanism that realized the individual’s self through liberation from labour and money itself and expressed the way and form of life. This story will contribute to elucidating and expanding the social value and meaning of money by describing the financial behavior and financial attitudes of three generations of financial subjects differently handling money. In addition, the results of this story shed light on personal and social conflicts surrounding money and well-being by exploring the social values and meanings of the use of money in different generations, and help financial subjects make wise financial decisions and manage their finances in financial capitalism.
