Předběžná náplň práce
The Austrian business cycle theory (ABCT) has recently been experiencing a renaissance within economics, which was strengthened by the occurrence of the recent crisis. It is unique in its emphasis of time in the production processes, heterogeneity and structure of capital resources and the influence of manipulation of interest rates and money supply on that structure. The theory asserts that a period of artificially induced low interest rates stimulates borrowing and (mal)investment, especially in the early stages of production, which is unsustainable with the consumption/saving preferences of the consumers and will have to be liquidated. A recession, which is a painful reallocation of resources back to its more efficient uses, comes when either the credit expansion slows down or when it projects into expectations of persistent excessive inflation. The underlying cause of the recession is lack of real resources to cover both the investment and the consumption patterns of the economic actors.
In this thesis I am going to prepare a comprehensive overview of ABCT’s propositions and conclusions, contribute to the series of literature on the empirical testing of whether these are in line with reality and summarise methodological views of the Austrian school and discussion about whether and how econometrics can help in putting the theory to the test.
The empirical testing is going to be performed on appropriately disaggregated macroeconomic data from selected European countries.
