Abstract:
The purpose during globalization, huge new demand causes resource shortages and inflation. This gives a boost to new technologies, potentially able to resolve them. Any radically new technology is decades away from commercialization--its implementation after a systemic sudden stop (3S) depends on finding a brand-new accumulation engine (AE). Meanwhile, efforts to reduce production costs through scale efficiencies reverse the supply-demand equation: from shortages of supplies to shortages of demand. Our market-pendulum-model shows that the mid-term market equilibrium ends with market failures (3S). Historically, generation of adequate demand for drastically new products took at least a few decades, causing a seismic shift: i.e., mass steel/oil/electricity of the early 20th century came to age after WWII only.
