Juglar cycles[edit]
He was one of the first to develop an economic theory ofbusiness cycles.[1][2]He identified thefixed investmentcycle of six to ten years that is now associated with his name. Within theJuglar cycleone can observe oscillations of investments intofixed capitaland not just changes in the level of employment of the fixed capital (and respective changes in inventories), as is observed with respect toKitchin cycles.
Juglar's impact[edit]
Juglar's publications led to other business cycle theories by later economists such asJoseph Schumpeter.
