온라인 게임 내 경제 시스템의 발전에 관한 연구

Abstract

As a macroscopic research for the economic system in MMORPG’s, I have analyzed the differentiation & characteristic of each economic system such as Picking Economy, Laissez-faire, Revised Capitalism, Neo-liberalism as well as Economic Democracy which is shown on online game. The picking economy of online game, like as Ultima Online, has the characteristic of co-work & co-distribution but the capitalist who has accumulated wealth appeared on Laissez-faire period. When the economic system of Laissez-faire has fell down, Revised Capitalism that includes the characteristics of government intervention has appeared. Finally, ArcheAge and MapleStory 2, which are represent for Neo-liberalism and economic democracy, are characterized by recovery of market functions & welfare.
