    Re-Switching, The Average Period of Production and the Austrian Business-Cycle Theory: A Comment on Fratini
    (Springer New York LLC, 2019-05-26) Lewin, Peter; Cachanosky, N.; 0000-0002-2840-0773 (Lewin, P); 276926695 (Lewin, P); Lewin, Peter
    In a recent contribution to this journal Saverio Fratini (Review of Austrian Economics, 2019) offers a critique of our work on Austrian Capital Theory on the grounds that our conception of capital and “roundaboutness” does not appear to provide adequate support for the Austrian business-cycle theory. In this comment we explain why we think this criticism is wrong. © 2019, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.

    The Role of Capital Structure in Austrian Business Cycle Theory
    (The Association of Private Enterprise Education) Cachanosky, N.; Lewin, Peter; 0000-0002-2840-0773 (Lewin, P); 276926695 (Lewin, P); Lewin, Peter
    We argue that the application of financial analysis, especially that of duration, clarifies and supports the application of the average period of production in Austrian business cycle theory. We also suggest that the focus in the recent ABCT literature should be more on the average period of production and less on the stages of production as depicted in Hayek’s triangle in Roger Garrison’s model.
