Great Depression of the 1930s

Zusatztext This is not an ordinary edited volume. Every paper seems to have been specially written for it and fits the title. Each views an aspect of the interwar era in light of theoretical and policy issues related to our own post-2008 depression, and draws explicit lessons... the volume includes many of the best economic historians working on the interwar era, scholars worth reading... all of the papers are admirably up to date on the current macroeconomics literature, including recent attempts to accounts for events of the 1930s in terms of real business cycle and New Keynesian models. Monetary policy at the zero bound, hysteresis in the natural rate of unemployment, recovery from a financial crisis and regulatory reforms, the euro and the gold standard? These and many other topics are well-covered.
