To compensate for the impact of inflation on prices, multiply all prices by 10. To compensate for the impact of inflation, plus the doubling of our population, plus the quadrupling of our economy per capita, multiply financial statistics by 80 when evaluating the impact of events on economic and financial markets. This may look strange when applied to commodity and consumer prices, but actually highlights the tremendous productivity advances of the last 70 years.

Bibliography BRITISH FINANCIAL WARFARE: 1929; 1931-33 . HOW THE CITY OF LONDON CREATED THE GREAT DEPRESSION by Webster G. Tarpley December, 1996 T The ravaged post-war, post-Versailles world of the 1920's provides the main backdrop for the following considerations: 1. The events leading to the Great Depression are all related to British economic warfare against the rest of the world, which mainly took the form of the attempt to restore a London- centered world monetary system incorporating the gold standard. The efforts of the British oligarchy in this regard were carried out by a clique of international central bankers dominated by Lord Montagu Norman of the Bank of England, assisted by his tools Benjamin Strong of the New York Federal Reserve Bank and Hjalmar Schacht of the German Reichsbank. This British-controlled gold standard proved to be a straightjacket for world economic development, somewhat along the lines of the deflationary Maastricht "convergence criteria" of the late 1990's. 3. This depression was rendered far more severe and, most importantly, permanent, by the British default on gold payment in September, 1931. This British default, including all details of its timing and modalities, and also the subsequent British gambit of competitive devaluations, were deliberate measures of economic warfare on the part of the Bank of England. British actions amounted to the deliberate destruction of the pound sterling system, which was the only world monetary system in existence at that time. The collapse of world trade became irreversible. With deliberate prompting from the British, currency blocs emerged, with the clear implication that currency blocs like the German Reichsmark and the Japanese yen would soon have to go to war to obtain the oil and other natural resources that orderly world trade could no longer provide. In 1931, Norman engineered a disintegration by detonating the gold backing of the pound sterling.

As a non-economist but one who experienced the Great Depression, I have no significant disagreement with Jim Devine's fine paper, but do have a few comments. I'll put the most important first, so expect a slide from esoteric to cxotic. In the evolution of a "crash" into depression the role of confidence cannot be overestimated. Confidence of consumers and confidence of producers (expectations?). The Great Depression of 1929-1941 (U.S.) exemplifies this. As the stock market slid off its bubble there

A few years ago on Bubblevision I heard how a "balanced" portfolio would have broken even in 6 years from 1929, actually spinning 1929 to make it seem not so bad. Of course the commentator neglected to say that you had be lucky enough to hold the "right" securities and didn't offer any suggestions as to how to identify such securities. Nor did the commentator mention that this lucky investor had as much as a 25% chance of losing his employment, which could have forced liquidation of this marvelous portfolio at bottom prices. If he didn't lose his job, he might have taken a substantial pay cut, still forcing him to liquidate.

Main Article: [ Intro section I section II section III ... notes For a version of the below with a new analysis of the future, click here (an edited version of this appears in the new Encyclopedia of Political Economy , Phil O'Hara, ed.) The Origins of the Great Depression of the 1930s by James Devine November 20, 1996 The collapse of both the 1920s-era prosperity of the United States and the shakier growth of Germany heralded the world-wide Great Depression of the 1930s, as primary-product producers went bankrupt, trade wars flared, and the banking system disintegrated. Because this series of events shook popular faith in capitalism's ability to "deliver the goods," economic historians have dedicated much research time to its understanding. In this research most emphasis has been on either the U.S. economy's collapse (as with Romer, 1993) or the instability of the world economy (Temin, 1989). Leftist economists stress the inherent instability of the U.S. and world economies of the late 1920s. Hardly any emphasize a fall in the rate of profit or a high employment profit squeeze, since there is little evidence for those hypotheses. Instead, underconsumption tendencies are stressed. Paul Baran and Paul Sweezy (1966) see underconsumption-induced depression as the normal state of monopoly capitalism; it was only World War I and the 1920s automobilization of the U.S. economy that delayed its onset. On the other hand, the France-centered "Regulation School" (of Michel Aglietta (1979), and others) see a structural disjunction between the rising importance of mass production and the limits of mass consumption. The depression was inevitable in the absence of "a monopoly mode of regulation," often called "Fordism."

Monetary Policy 1927-1930 Were the Fed's actions stabilizing or destabilizing? Conclusion References In recent years, a number of economists have expressed concern that the stock market is overvalued. Some have compared the situation with the 1920s, warning that the market may be headed for a similar collapse. Indeed, some suggest that lax monetary policy contributed to the Great Crash and have argued that current monetary policy is also dangerously lax. For example, an April 1998 Economist article stated: In the late 1920s, the Fed was also reluctant to raise interest rates in response to soaring share prices, leaving rampant bank lending to push prices higher still. When the Fed did belatedly act, the bubble burst with a vengeance. To avoid the same mistake

58. Bruce Bartlett Opinion Editorial: What Caused The '29 Crash And Great Depression well in advance of the stock market crash or Smoot it is true that international tradecollapsed after 1929, it is much was due to the tariff or the depression. http://www.ncpa.org/oped/bartlett/oct2999.html

Opinion Editorial Friday, October 29, 1999 What Caused The '29 Crash And Great Depression? Today marks the 70th anniversary of the stock market crash of 1929. Despite the passage of so many years, however, there is still no consensus on what caused the crash or the relationship between the crash and the Great Depression. These are still important questions because many of the factors that have been suggested as causing the crash and subsequent depression are still relevant today. One of the most hotly debated causes of the crash is the Smoot-Hawley tariff. Protectionists like Alfred Eckes and Pat Buchanan argue that it could not have affected the market because the law was not passed until 1930, long after the crash. Although this is true, much of the legislative activity took place in 1929. As economist Alan Reynolds convincingly demonstrated in National Review (November 9, 1979), actions favoring passage of the tariff bill correlate quite well with declines in the stock market during 1929, culminating on October 29. The reason why the market crashed well in advance of the tariff becoming law is because markets are forward-looking, and quickly capitalize any policy that will impact on future profits. Fred Kent, Director of the Bankers' Trust Company, confirms that this is what happened in 1929. In a speech on November 11, 1929, Kent said, "As soon as dealers in securities, who were constantly on the watch for indications as to business conditions, realized that this feeling of uneasiness (on account of the tariff bill) was spreading throughout industry, they began selling stocks."

The World Depression Academic article on the cause and effect of the Great depression worldwide.Category Society History Twentieth Century Great depression...... what it had been prior to the crash; between 1929 to counterbalance deflation in timeof depression ran counter to orthodox economic theory in 19291932 http://mars.acnet.wnec.edu/~grempel/courses/wc2/lectures/depression.html

The Great Depression It was appropriate that the terrible economic slump of the 1930s started in the United States, to which Europe seemed to have surrendered economic leadership during the Great War and on which she had been dependent ever since. Stock Market Crash The stock market crash that began on a black Friday in October 1929 and deepened in the ensuing months had immediate repercussion in Europe. Indeed, even before this, the superheated boom in stock prices that marked the bull market of 1928 siphoned money from Europe. The pricking of the bubble sent shock waves throughout the world. Large exports of American capital had helped sustain Europe, besides providing an outlet for American surpluses of capital, during the 1920s. Investment in European bonds now contracted sharply and swiftly, as banks that were "caught short" with too many of their assets invested in securities desperately tried to raise money. By June 1930, the price of securities on Wall Street was about 20 percent, on average, of what it had been prior to the crash; between 1929 and 1932 the Dow-Jones average of industrial stock prices fell from a high of 381 to a low of 41! The American market for European imports also dropped sharply as the entire American economy went into shock; and, to compound trouble, congress insisted on passing a high tariff law in 1930, against the advice of almost all economists. Effective operation of the international economy required that the United States import goods to allow foreign governments to pay for American loans. Moreover, the raising of tariffs set off a chain reaction as every government tried to protect itself against an adverse trade balance leading to currency deterioration. The result was a drying up of world trade that further fueled the economic downturn. The Americans, additionally, continued to insist upon repayment of war debts, until finally in 1931 a general moratorium was declared. Well might Europeans complain of American blindness, but these events only exposed Europe's vulnerability.
