Long Wave Theory

This economic theory reference collection brings together papers on the long wave, or Kondratieff cycles. The papers address connections between innovation and long wave theory, the statistical debate about long wave theory and recent work on its use as a forecasting tool. The book contains Van Gelderen's pioneering 1913 article; features major contributions from a wide range of journals and publications; and includes authors such as Jan Tinbergen, Andrew Tylecote, Nathan Rosenberg, Ernest Mandel and Helga Nowotny.
