The Business Cycle: Growth and Crisis Under Capitalism - Paperback

by Howard J. Sherman (Author)
Are the recurring recessions of the capitalist world merely short-term adjustments to changing economic circumstances in a system that tends, in general, toward equilibrium? In this accessible study of the business cycle, Howard Sherman makes a powerful case that recessions and painful involuntary unemployment are endogenous to capitalism. Drawing especially on the work of Wesley Clair Mitchell, Karl Marx, and John M. Keynes, Sherman explains why the nature of the business cycle produces serious economic loss and misery during its contraction phase, just as it produces growth in its expansion phase.

The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.Back Jacket
"This work is more systematic and comprehensive than any other book on the business cycle. The integration of empirical evidence and relevant theory is unusually thorough and interesting, and Sherman's use of Wesley Clair Mitchell's work is especially welcome."--John E. King, La Trobe University
