This chapter is about radical innovation and disruptive technological change. Discovering the nature and mechanisms of disruptive technological change can help to understand the long-run dynamics of innovation and map profound transformation in socio-economic systems. The chapter considers four...

This paper deals with the question of whether there is a relationship between Kondratieff cycles and changes in the global monetary system. We use the model of the well-known Kondratieff scientist Carlota Perez to examine this relationship. It has been observed that at the beginning of the...

Evoking Chris Freeman and following from the last book he co-authored, this WP asks why has the Phase B of the fourth long wave been so long, since the major turning point of the 1970s. As Chris's answer was the mismatch between the new techno-economic paradigm, available for decades, and the...

Kondratiev long cycle is generally treated as a phenomenon of a modern world economy. However, the existence of major cycles before the Industrial Revolution does not contradict the theoretical views of Kondratiev, the founder of the long-waves theory. We have discovered Kondratiev's documents,...

Purpose There exist long-term fluctuations in the process of capital accumulation. The economic long wave is an essential part of research into non-mainstream western economics. After the Second World War, the capitalist world experienced the fourth long wave of expansion and then entered into a...

The present paper is an empirical exercise that contributes to the debate on whether long-lasting cyclical economic development can be viewed as a deterministic phenomenon or a stochastic process. First, we search for longer lasting, periodically reappearing cycles of GDP per capita in four...

A central challenge in asset pricing is the weak connection between stock returns and observable economic fundamentals. We provide evidence that this connection is stronger than previously thought. We use a modified version of the Bry-Boschan algorithm to identify long-run swings in the stock...

Oft zitiert, kaum konkretisiert IBM die ökologisch-soziale Marktwirtschaft. Dies meint die Umfinanzierung der Arbeitskosten durch Ökosteuern. Konsequenterweise hiesse das: ein bedingungsloses Grundeinkommen, das aber aus der Besteuerung von Energieträgern und (Investiv-)Kapital finanziert...

In this paper, I investigate the phenomenon of long waves of capitalist development from two perspectives. First, I look for evidence of long waves of economic growth taking the dates for turning points of long waves from the historical literature (Mandel, 1995). Using historical data for 20...

Der Begriff IT, "Information Technology" steht für den 5. und jüngsten Kondratjeff-Zyklus und damit für einen zukünftigen Boom. Gleichzeitig lässt dieser Begriff vermutlich nicht wenige Computernutzer zunächst erschreckt an die PC-Fehlermeldung denken "Bitte wenden Sie sich an Ihren...

We discuss business cycles in ancient China. Data on Ancient China business cycles are sparse and incomplete and so our discussion is qualitative rather than quantitative. Essentially, ancient debates focused on two types of cycles: long run political or dynastic cycles of many decades, and...

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the pattern and behavior of Economic Long Waves over time, using the long-wave chronologies of two driving economies, the USA and the UK. The statistical evidence seems in general to support the hypothesis that Long Waves are not symmetric and their...

The purpose of this paper is to conjecture the possible technological determinants underpinning future economic long waves. The foresight is based on prominent forecasting studies of scholars and a leading British company. This research assumes that converging nano-bio-info-cogno technologies...

Asset prices tend to undergo wide swings around long-run equilibrium values, which can have detrimental effects on the real economy. To get a better understanding of how the financial sector and the real economy interact, this paper models the long swings in the Swiss franc-US dollar foreign...

The persistent current phase of negative growth has already triggered the awakening of long wave theories. Although long waves are obvious, even with a simple visual observation of the history of the data, doubts as to their existence are expressed by a variety of different theoretical and...

In this study I review the main scientific contributions of Minsky and other scholars to the financial instability and crisis issues, and the role of institutions in modeling the medium and long financial and business waves. The topics developed in this paper are the following: the relationships...

Industrial policy should vary with the specific conditions of the various phases of a long wave of economic development. At considerable lag from world technological leaders the economy can get to "a structural trap". To escape this trap, the active state economic policy has to be based on the...

The paper aims at understanding if the First Oil Shock has produced long-term effects to the economic system and its fundamentals, if it is still indirectly affecting the energy market and the growth rates of the Western Economies and Less Developed Countries. An historical perspective here will...
