Abstract

The history of the Japanese economy since its modernization started has been a process in which growth and cycles intermingled. In general, the modern economic growth process after a capitalist economic system was established has been characterized by an accelerating trend of growth and cyclical fluctuations around that growth path. According to Schumpeter, the essence of a capitalist economy is the dynamic developmental process of change and growth created by the innovative activities of entrepreneurs, the innovation working as the driving force of the development process. Advanced capitalist countries including Japan have experienced recurrent fluctuations during periods of continued growth.
