Business Cycles and Their Causes offers a reprint of the third part of a seminal 1913 work on economic fluctuations, addressing the dynamics and interrelations within business cycles. Authored by a pioneer in economic theory, this book captures a foundational understanding of the patterns and causes of cyclical movements in economies operating under private property, a monetary economy, and profit-driven enterprise. While much has evolved since the initial publication, the enduring relevance of these insights lies in their theoretical rigor and realistic depiction of economic activity during cyclical fluctuations.
This reprint preserves the original's core analysis, supported by historical data and a comprehensive theoretical framework. By revisiting this classic work, readers gain valuable perspectives on the persistent and sometimes violent nature of business cycles, as well as the underlying mechanisms that drive them. Whether for historians of economic thought or contemporary analysts seeking foundational knowledge, this volume remains a significant contribution to understanding the rhythms of business activity in market economies.
