Abstract
Recently, the global theory of geometry [1] has played a prominent role in the fields of applied mathematics. In the near future, such a tendency will display also in mahtematical economics. The purpose of this paper is to propose a geometrical approach to the problem of economic structures. In particular, an economic application of the manifold theory is discussed from a standpoint of global analysis or analysis on manifolds.
