Mutual understanding, the state of attention, and the ground for interaction in economic systems

Article Abstract:

Economic agents are oriented towards the achievement of goals for the common welfare. This runs counter to neoclassical economic theory. This theory is based on the assumption that agents provide information only in cases where utility maximization is desired. In reality, the nature of the relationship between agents is dynamic. Interaction is necessary to facilitate tranquil coexistence in economic systems.
