Abstract
Dynamical systems theory in the 1970s and 1980s has been dominated by research on non-linear systems and so-called chaotic motion. As economic time-series are obviously characterised by irregularities, it has been presumed that these irregularities can be modelled by the help of chaotic dynamical systems.
