This article analyzes economic theory through thermodynamic principles, suggesting new frameworks for interdisciplinary inquiry.
Because in this universe, the movement of any matter cannot violate the four laws of thermodynamics. This article analyzes economics using the basic laws of thermodynamics, and takes this as the operational basis of social sciences. By explaining the economic language represented by physical quantities in human society according to the four laws of thermodynamics, it establishes a dissipative thermodynamic model of human society and states as the research subject. It analyzes the thermodynamic movements in human society and provides a profound theoretical foundation for economics. Study the representation of entropy in humans and society within this system as individual consciousness entropy through a physical thermodynamics model. By analyzing the entropy of consciousness, establish a fundamental bridge between human psychology and physics, and propose the basic relationship between biological entropy and time. Analyze the framework of a national dissipative system through the four major laws of thermodynamics. For the analysis of national dissipative mechanisms, the four links of human dissipative mechanisms are thoroughly explained: the transformation link, the distribution link, the exchange link, and the consumption link, comprehensively explaining the basic operating state of society. The proposed framework offers new explanatory power for unresolved paradoxes in both physical and economic theories, and opens new avenues for interdisciplinary inquiry into the fundamental principles of complex systems.
