The minute division of labour in the production process,and increasing interdependency in trade and economy is evident in the financial crisis afflicting us at the end of this century. Economic activity is no longer purely a matter of production, trade and barter. It is a means to satisfy human desires of every kind. Within it, there is an element of unequal relationship between the strong and the weak.

而生产分工精细化，贸易与经济依存度提升的结果，从世纪末的金融风暴中可以看得一清二楚，经济活动不再是单纯的生产和交易、或互补有无的事情，而是人类满足各种欲望的手段，其中包含强权与弱者之间的不平等关系。
