Abstract
The issue is considered, whether the possibility of reswitching of techniques influences the explanatory value of neoclassical growth theory. In an intertemporal decision model it is shown, that neoclassical growth theory can only describe growth equilibria, but not explain the growth process itself, because the profit rate, an important variable for the investment decisions of entrepreneurs, and therefore also the income distribution are not determined within this framework. This is completely independent of the existence of reswitching. Therefore the controversies in capital theory have mostly missed the real problem of growth theory, i.e. the explanation of the disequilibrium transition process.
