Short thesis abstract

The purpose of the study is to identify and explain the phenomena of so-called business cycles in developing countries.

The justification for doing so is, on the one hand, the observation that developing countries appear to be displaying cyclical patterns in their economic activity which are increasingly corresponding to such patterns in the advanced countries, and, on the other hand, the relative dearth of studies of cycles in these countries – the developing countries. It is this lacuna that the present study attempts to contribute to filling.
