Why the Poor Get Richer and the Rich Slow Down: Essays in the Marshallian Long Period
Autor W. W. Rostowen Limba Engleză Paperback – iun 1980
The theoretical and historical essays include a review and unification of various long-cycle theories; a formal mathematical model of the Kondratieff cycle; a review of theories relating technology and the price system, including Rostow's own formulation of the appropriate linkage; a lengthy analysis of the pre-1914 relation between money and prices, including a detailed critique of modern monetarist interpretations; and an analysis of the proposition that economic growth assumes an S-shaped path of acceleration and deceleration.
The policy essays include an examination of the links between energy-related investment, full employment, and patterns of regional development in the United States; the discussion of an appropriate framework and procedure for North-South international economic negotiations; and the text of a 1965 talk on inflation that touches on the relations among economics, economists, and the performance of societies as a whole.

Descriere
The eight essays presented here are unified by the author’s insistence that neo-Keynesian and neoclassical theory are an inadequate basis for economic analysis and policy prescription.
