Abstract

The business cycle is a factor in our economic life that we should know more about, and it was to have a better understanding of this upsetting phenomenon that this study was undertaken. A clarification of our ideas on the causes of periods of boom and depression is necessary if we are to approach the problem of recovery with the clear thinking that the magnitude of the problem requires.
