This is a very interesting line of study. I know you are probably looking for a more sophisticated answer, but I think you will find that it comes under the 'economics' paradigm. Ive studied a few introductory subjects on economics which covered a basic understanding.
So the systems you mentioned are all economic models/systems. In addition to the traditional study of economics like micro/macro you can obviously branch to units on different economic models, history and so forth.
As for developing new economic models, the search term 'economic system', from wikipedia yields some information on the current lines of thought.

---------------------
Wikipedia has a surprising amount of information on economics, I suppose that you would need to decide what studies you would want.
So if you were a economic analyst for the government it would be a strict study of economics. To instigate change yourself you might need political studies and finally if you could take part in technological or scientific studies to prove resource based economic models.
I suppose if your just after the name of a specific course that would involve research in to fringe based economic models then you would probably have to just go for the next best and make it your own.
Hope something I wrote helps.
