Synthesis of The Yeager and Austrian Theory
Monetary disequilibrium theory has always been a part of the Austrian Monetary theory.Significant features of the monetary-disequilibrium theory except the inclusion of the stable price level have been present in the Austrian theory for a long time now. Mostly modern Austrian economists emphasize on the effects of inflation than the harm caused by rapid deflation. This is mainly because inflation is a more immediate problem in the current system and deflation is a result of prior inflation. Over the last few years preventing deflation by inflating the money supply has quite worked out and thus it would be better if we limit the monetary expansion on the first place.
Leland Yeager's theory of monetary disequilibrium is simpler than the Austrian School of thought but it leaves out important parts of the economic system and hence provides an incomplete view of the business cycles. Austrian theory being simple is the only theory that places business cycles in the full context of a functioning economy.

“It is in this impossibility of attaining to a synthesis of the inner life and the outward that the inferiority of the biographer to the novelist lies. The biographer quite clearly sees Peel, say, seated on his bench while his opponents overwhelm him with perhaps undeserved censure. He sees him motionless, miserable, his head bent on his breast. He asks himself: “What is he thinking?” and he knows nothing.”
—Andre Maurois (1885–1967)
“The new shopping malls make possible the synthesis of all consumer activities, not least of which are shopping, flirting with objects, idle wandering, and all the permutations of these.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)

“The war shook down the Tsardom, an unspeakable abomination, and made an end of the new German Empire and the old Apostolic Austrian one. It ... gave votes and seats in Parliament to women.... But if society can be reformed only by the accidental results of horrible catastrophes ... what hope is there for mankind in them? The war was a horror and everybody is the worse for it.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“Every theory is a self-fulfilling prophecy that orders experience into the framework it provides.”
