The theory of economic development

Bloch, Harry·2017·Schumpeter's Price Theory

Abstract

This chapter reviews the main features of Schumpeter&s;s theory of economic development. Schumpeter starts from the proposition that there is a qualitative distinction between the process of economic development and the circular flow of a stationary economy that is characterised by equilibrium. The distinction is explained at length towards the start of each of his two main theoretical treatises, The Theory of Economic Development (TED) and Business Cycles (BC). In TED, the distinction is between &s;The Circular Flow of Economic Life&s; and &s;The Fundamental Phenomenon of Economic Development’. In BC, the distinction is between &s;Equilibrium and the Theoretical Norm of Economic Quantities&s; and &s;How the Economic System Generates Evolution&s;. The chapter discusses the institutions of development as they are deployed in Schumpeter&s;s theory, namely, firms, markets, credit, banks and the state. Schumpeter associates the circular flow with the stationary state of an economy, while economic development is solely concerned with the introduction of innovations into the economy.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
