11. MONITORY THEORY
By – R. J. Hawtrey
Criticism -
Hawtrey doesn’t consider non-moneroty factors like , demand, competition,
govt.
Rules & Regulation etc. For Business Cycle That’s Why His Theory Tends To Be
Incomplete.
It Is Not Correct To Say Banks Are Responsible For Expansion & Contraction Of
Business Activities.
Hawtrey Has Over Emphasized The Role Of Bank System In Economy.
According To The Hawtrey If Banks Increase Interest Rate Producer Will Not
Demand Credit And Decrease The Production. Where As If Business Man Feel
That Feature Prospects Are There Even At The High Interest Rate They Will
Demand Credit & Continue The Product Activities.
12. NON – MONITORY THEORY
By J. Schumpetor
Criticism –
This Theory Is Based On The Wrong Assumption Of Full Employ Because In
Reality Full Employment Of Factors Of Production Isn’t Possible Hence It
Tends To Be
Non-Realistic Theory.
Like Hawtrey, Schumpetor Too Ignores Non-Monitory Factors For Business
Cycle.
Schumpetor Has More Emphasize The Role Of Innovation In The Economic
Activities Where As Critics Opine That Business Cycle Will Not Operate Only
Because Of Innovation.
