In a series of 1920s papers, Kondratiev worked out the theory that capitalism had 50-to-60-year economic supercycles. . . . that the intermittent major crises punctuating capitalism were not building towards systemic implosion but clearing the economic debris . . . There's a reason why God commanded Israel to clear away all the economic debris and restore hereditary properties (i.e., land holdings) every 50 years with the Jubilee.
Shalom.

My dad was predicting a Kondratiev recession in 1985, and virtually every year since.
The problem with such theories is that the frequency of recessions is such that one can attribute anything to the phenomena. There are too many powerful variables at operation to render wave functions explicit causes, whether wars, politics, or technological discontinuities. "All other things" can't be held constant.
