摘要

The close relationship between philosophy and economy has been obscured by the highly speculative and abstract form of philosophical theories, which employ categories of the broadest extensions to denote the universal relationships of the phenomena. Philosophy investigates the ultimate existence of the universe, the everlasting noumenon of everything and the absolute truth to be known, topics in the realm of the beyond which seem to be farthest removed from reality and earthly life. Needless to say, such theories and investigations must hardly share any common ground with the economy, the realm of the tangible. The abstract form of philosophical theories, especially in the traditional sense, obscures not only the true relationship between philosophy and economy but also the true nature of philosophy itself, the latter being more fundamental because it is the cause of the former. Philosophy, when seen in its true nature, would immediately manifest its close relationship with the economy through the common medium of both—man.
