Abstract

The aim of this study is to discuss the limitations of the financial instability hypothesis of Minsky, besides its superior perspective in explaining the crises of capitalism than the mainstream economic theory. Therefore, this study consists of three parts. In the first part, Minsky's criticism of mainstream economic theory will be examined and in the second part Minsky's hypothesis of financial instability will be presented and the study will be end with a discussion of whether Minsky's business cycle theory is sufficient to explain the crises of modern capitalism today.
