A Response to the Great Depression

Addressing the Great Depression The Great Depression of the 1930s was an economic event of the 20th century. The Great Depression began in 1929. At that time, worldwide production dropped sharply, the unemployment rate rose at an unprecedented rate. World economic production continued to decline until 1932, reaching 50% of the 1929 level. The unemployment rate soared, and the US reached the highest point of 24.9% in 1933. Real economic output (real GDP) declined 29% from 1929 to 1933, and the US stock market fell 89.5%.

All of these began to change with the Neoclassical Anti-Revolution (NCCR). As Keynesian economics responded to the Great Depression, for some people, this revolution is a response to major inflation and stagnation. However, there is a simple flaw in this discussion. Paradigm shift requires not only traditional theory but also another theory to explain them to discover new facts that become increasingly complex. As I discussed in Wren-Lewis (2015), the neoclassical revolution does not do such a thing. In fact, the alternative to the original SEM is the RBC (Real Business Cycle) model without inflation.

At the end of the First World War, Americans lost energy. For nearly 100 years, they have faced problems of division, civil war, reconstruction, imperialism and the First World War. Finally, they are sitting and ready to join the party. The surge in demand has brought huge economic growth. Americans did not see the big problems that will appear soon. The Great Depression is caused by a combination of factors - a natural factor
