Main courses: political economy, capital, western economics (micro/macro), statistics, international economics, monetary banking, finance, history of economic theory, development economics, enterprise management, marketing, international finance, international trade, etc.
At first, I basically started with micro-learning (if I still find it too difficult, I'll go and see Infernal Affairs in the Stock Market or Liang's economic works first). Then study macroeconomics (at this time, you should have an overall understanding of the economy, and then start to choose the branches you want to enter, such as finance, stock market, political economy, public economy and so on. ) ..
There are many branches of economics, so-called microeconomics and macroeconomics are not suitable for beginners. For beginners who have no concept of economics, it is suggested to start with the principles of economics. The most common and popular book on principles of economics in the market is Principles of Economics written by Man Kun (if I remember correctly, the cover is The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival). There is no complicated mathematics, and a simple explanation makes you understand the basic principles of economics. Of course, other authors can do the same, such as Principles of Economics-China Edition by Peking University and Aivi Lu.
After you have a preliminary understanding of economics, you can look at microeconomics and macroeconomics. Microeconomics involves more mathematics. Microeconomics-Modern Viewpoint, which is recommended for beginners, or Microeconomics by Zhou and Microeconomics by Zhou. If you have a certain mathematical foundation, you can look at Eighteen Lectures on Microeconomics by Ping Xinqiao and Microeconomics-Basic Theory and Development by Nicholson (non-professional).
Macroeconomics recommends Man Kun, or saxophone, and Barrow's macroeconomics is also good. These books are easy to buy.
Finance can be seen in Harvey S. Rosen. International economics can look at Krugman. Other branches are of little significance to non-majors, especially econometrics, except monetary banking and finance.
Situation 2: You just want to know a little.
Just look at the principles of economics, and don't look at others.
Situation 3: I just want to know some concepts for chatting.
Whatever. Just read newspapers and magazines. But I can tell you responsibly that there are too many unreliable financial news, and the bad news is far more than the right one. ...
I hope it helps you.
