Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First issued in 1937 and then revised in 1957, Prosperity and Depression focuses on the task of analyzing existing theories of the business cycle and deriving a synthetic account of the nature and possible causes of economic fluctuations. The application, as far as possible, of quantitative tests to the various causal hypotheses - influences the manner in which the problem of economic cycles is approached in Haberler's book.The first part on ""The Systematic Analysis of the Theories of the Business Cycle"" gathers various hypotheses of explanation, to test their logical consistency and their compatibility with one another and with accepted economic principles. It gives a well rounded picture of the possible explanations of economic fluctuations. The second part, ""Synthetic Exposition Relating to the Nature and Causes of Business Cycles"" argues that there are many points where no definitive solution can be proposed, but have a number of possibilities. The choice between these can then be made only on the basis of empirical investigations.Haberler argues that theoretical reasoning supported only by broad facts as one happens to know without special statistical or historical investigations can create intelligent questions, but it cannot definitely answer them. By analyzing various theories and explanations of the business cycle, this book clarifies a number of issues presupposed. The difference between the theories analyzed is not as complicated as is sometimes believed. In fact it is shown how theories which seem prima facie to contradict one another can be reconciled. David Felix's new introduction underlines the continuing importance of this classic.

Book excerpt: This book has its origin in a resolution adopted by the Assembly of the League of Nations in September 1930 by which it was decided that an attempt should be made to co-ordinate the analytical work then being done on the problem of the recurrence of periods of economic depression. This book is divided into two parts. The first part contains a systematic analysis of existing theories; the second an attempt to weave from those theories a general synthesis. Dr. G. von Haberler, born 1900, studied economics and law at the Universities of Vienna and Bonn, obtained a Rockefeller Fellowship in 1928, and was later a Professor at the University of Vienna, and at the time of original publication of this study by the League of Nations in 1937 was Assistant Professor at Harvard University. From 1934-1936 he was a member of the Economic Intelligence Service of the League of Nations.

Book excerpt: "The Depression of the 1930s was a defining period in New Zealand history. It had its own vocabulary -- swaggers and sugarbags, relief work and sustenance, the Queen Street riots and special constables -- that was all too familiar to those who lived through that tumultuous decade ... While the lives of those most affected by the Depression have been admirably documented in oral histories in various forms, the political and economic context, and the manoeuvrings and responses to the unprecedented conditions have not, until now, been given the extensive analysis they deserve. [This book] ... unpicks the Depression year by year. It begins by introducing the prosperous world of New Zealand in the late 1920s before focusing on the sudden onset of the Depression in 1930--31, the catastrophic months that followed and, finally, on the attempt to find a way back to that pre-Depression prosperity. Informed by exhaustive research, relevant statistics and fascinating personal accounts, and made accessible and meaningful by insightful analysis"--Publisher's description.

This book was released on 2018-10-31 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph attempts two things: first, a detailed analysis of monthly data for a single cycle of prosperity and depression; second, a comparative analysis of monthly data in the three great industrial nations of the world, the United States, Great Britain, and Germany. The secular and seasonal fluctuations are eliminated, for the work is concerned with cyclical fluctuations. The method used is to construct relative or index numbers from the actual data by using a new base for each of the twelve months of the year. The average of the actual figures for each January in the seven-year period is used as the base for January data, the average of the actual figures for the seven Februarys is used as the base for February data, and so on. The author selected twenty-three series of monthly data for the United States, fifteen for Great Britain, and fifteen for Germany. The Pearsonian coefficient was used to establish correlation, and to determine whether the series are synchronous or whether there is a lag, and if so how much of a lag. To test the relative position of each series in the cycle of prosperity and depression, a large number of correlations were worked out. Three main groups were finally selected, the Investment, Industrial, and Banking Groups. The author's groupings in the business cycle differ from those of Brookmire, Babson, and Professor Pearsons. This part of the study will interest students of business statistics and those who follow the reports of the above mentioned statistical services. In the fourth chapter the author reviews the various theories of prosperity cycles and then concludes with the statement: "The analysis of monthly data presented in the foregoing pages would indicate the following points: "1. That the first movement in the prosperity cycle begins with reserves, loans, deposits and money rates. "2. That the movement of reserves, loans, deposits and money rates is the causal factor working out its influence on stock and bond prices, transactions on the stock exchange, bank clearings, business failures, building, employment, production, imports and exports, prices and profits." The monograph contains twelve charts and eleven tables and a bibliography. The work is a distinct contribution to economic statistics and will be useful to students of economics and business men who are interested in business forecasting. --The South Atlantic Quarterly, Volume 21 [1922]

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cycles of Prosperity and Depression in the United States, Great Britain and Germany: A Study of Monthly Data, 1902 1908 Germany suffered from depression in 1902. Crops were rather poor, and general business continued at a low ebb as in the preceding year. The stock market tended downward. Reserves were plentiful and money rates were very low throughout the year. Slight depression ruled on the whole in the United States in 1903. Crops were good but not as large as in 1902. Iron and steel production declined heavily toward the end of the year though the total for the year was good. Unemployment increased somewhat. Stock prices dropped severely, resulting in heavy liquidation and bankruptcies. Interest rates ruled high, loans were extremely hard to float and short time loans were resorted to. Funds borrowed abroad were recalled by Europeans. This forced the banks in turn to recall loans, which in turn compelled the borrower to dispose of his securi ties. New capital for industrials or railroads could not be secured by the flotation of securities and hence retrenchment was the policy pursued.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lessons from the Great Depression provides an integrated view of the depression, covering the experience in Britain, France, Germany, and the United States. Do events of the 1930s carry a message for the 1990s? Lessons from the Great Depression provides an integrated view of the depression, covering the experience in Britain, France, Germany, and the United States. It describes the causes of the depression, why it was so widespread and prolonged, and what brought about eventual recovery. Peter Temin also finds parallels in recent history, in the relentless deflationary course followed by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board and the British government in the early 1980s, and in the dogged adherence by the Reagan administration to policies generated by a discredited economic theory—supply-side economics.
