The Great Depression and the 1990s
A teaching unit by Douglas Perry and Wendy Sauer
Unit Overview
Students frequently echo sentiments such as, "The government is too big," or "The government should make welfare mothers pay for their own needs." It seems that many citizens, high schoolers included, have begun to believe in reduced government combined with increased personal responsibility. Such sentiments suggest a move away from belief in the welfare state, created largely by the New Deal in the 1930s and reinforced by the "Great Society" legislation of the 1960s. By using the American Memory's American Life Histories, 1936-1940 documents, personal interviews, and the Library of Congress's on-line legislative information ( THOMAS ), students will be able to gain a better understanding of why the government takes care of its people and how this type of welfare state started. Armed with this knowledge, they can then evaluate the current need of government programs, such as welfare, Medicare and Social Security, on the federal and state level.
Objectives
By participating in this project, the students will:

The Great Depression was not just a unique period in U.S. history, it was a uniquely well-documented period. During the 1930s, President Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal activism attempted to relieve the economic plight experienced by one-third of the nation. While these programs gave Americans work, or not, they also enriched our cultural heritage.

H102 Lecture 18: The Crash and the Great Depression
http://us.history.wisc.edu/hist102/lectures/lecture18.html

“In 1929, Yale University economist Irving Fisher stated confidently: "The nation is marching along a permanently high plateau of prosperity." Five days later, the bottom dropped out of the stock market and ushered in the Great Depression, the worst economic downturn in American history. Although Americans often believe that the Crash was the starting point of the Great Depression, many historians point out that it wasn't the sole cause. This lecture examines the roots of the Crash and the effect of the Great Depression on the American public.”
This is actually lecture 18 of 30 located on the American History 102: Civil War to the Present website. This is actually part of a survey course taught at the University of Wisconsin by Professor Stanley K. Schultz. This lecture focuses on the role of the stock market crash in the Great Depression. Dr. Schultz examines the factors intricately involved in creating an economic situation ripe for disaster. Having led his audience to the stock market crash of 1929, the author continues his study by examining the economic and social effects of this momentous event. In his presentation, Schultz incorporates visual aids and quotations to enliven the narrative and bring the point home. His style is very entertaining and open to a wide audience. Overall, this is a good site to visit for an introduction to Black Thursday and the advent of the Great Depression.

The Great Depression in Duffy's Rocks Edward Fenton carefully and subtley crafts Duffy's Rocks as community, which like so many others, is feeling the impact of the Great Depression. The reader is presented with varying points of view about the Depression and the state of the economy. Timothy makes reference to the unemployed men he sees on the streets and struggles to understand the different opinions of the adults around him. Uncle Matt has experienced firsthand the pain of men who are willing to do any job, yet cannot find work. In direct contrast is Mr. Lachlan's opinion of jobless men. He asserts that they would "rather be on relief or boondoggle on the WPA" (p. 116). Fenton uses the contrast between Timothy's life in Duffy's Rocks and the Lachlan's life in Shadyside to emphasize the effects of the Great Depression on various socio-economic groups.
The Great Depression The Great Depression of the nineteen thirties was one of the worst events in United States history. After the infamous 1929 stock market crash, the economy completely fell apart. Thirteen million people lost their jobs and could not find work. Banks and businesses failed, leaving the entire county in great need. The Great Depression is one of the most prominently studied areas of American History; a wealth of resources are available...

The Great Depression, The New Deal, and Alabama's Political Leadership
    The Great Depression
  • Economic conditions in some sectors of agriculture began to decline in 1920, triggering two-decade-long depression. Alabama's substantial industrial economy suffered even heavier losses after the Great Depression hit industry in the late 1930s. Human suffering was terrific, with reports of widespread deprivation among both whites and blacks and even occasional incidents of starvation.
  • The New Deal
  • Alabamians overwhelmingly supported President Franklin D. Roosevelt and the New Deal. Alabama's congressional delegation has sometimes been called the South's most progressive and effective. New Deal programs helped both to stabilize temporary conditions (WPA, CCC, CWA) and also provided the basis for long-term economic growth (TVA). Some of these programs brought negative as well as positive results. Alabama's Democratic party and the state's elected officials tended to become more liberal.

ROOSEVELT AND THE NEW DEAL
In 1933 the new president, Franklin Roosevelt, brought an air of confidence and optimism that quickly rallied the people to the banner of his program, known as the New Deal. "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself," the president declared in his inaugural address to the nation.
In a certain sense, it is fair to say that the New Deal merely introduced types of social and economic reform familiar to many Europeans for more than a generation. Moreover, the New Deal represented the culmination of a long-range trend toward abandonment of "laissez-faire" capitalism, going back to the regulation of the railroads in the 1880s, and the flood of state and national reform legislation introduced in the Progressive era of Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson.
What was truly novel about the New Deal, however, was the speed with which it accomplished what previously had taken generations. In fact, many of the reforms were hastily drawn and weakly administered; some actually contradicted others. And during the entire New Deal era, public criticism and debate were never interrupted or suspended; in fact, the New Deal brought to the individual citizen a sharp revival of interest in government.

By Paul Craig Roberts and Lawrence M. Stratton (Go to Print Friendly Version) ccording to new deal historians, capitalism failed in the 1930s. What, then, is it doing flourishing in the United States, Britain, and Europe and taking root in Latin America and China, where it was never previously present? For the past 20 years there has been a large and growing incompatibility between the verdicts of historians and the performance of capitalism. A Monetary History of the United States, 1857-1960 The Federal Reserve is the most powerful institution of a new order that believed in the efficacy of government and its ability to do good. The same Federal Reserve caused the Great Depression when its wise men made a series of cumulative mistakes that contracted the money supply by one-third and wiped out purchasing power in an unprecedented fashion. Economists could not at first explain the Depression because they were unaware of the dramatic shrinkage in the quantity of money. It was not until Friedman and Schwartz dug into the facts that the culpability of the Federal Reserve became known. Moreover, most economists found this culpability to be unwelcome information. In the 1960s economists were uniformly Keynesian in outlook. They were emotionally supportive of government intervention, and their human capital was invested in policies that rested on their belief in the effectiveness of government action. Although they could not refute the evidence, they did not warmly endorse the revelation that the Fed had caused the Great Depression.

US History Curriculum: Chapter XI
XI. The Great Depression Learning Objective:
Understand the causes of the Great Depression. In October, 1929 the collapse of the values on the New York Stock Exchange caused a world-wide chain reaction leading to the most severe economic depression in history, and producing disastrous social and political consequences. No single factor contributed so heavily to the triumph of totalitarianism. Prior to World War I international prosperity came from a world market in which goods, money, and labor moved virtually unobstructed to where they were in the highest demand, that is, where they were the most productive. This movement had to contend with protective tariffs, but prior to 1914 these tariff barriers were not high enough to significantly impede the natural flow of the international economy. World War I changed this system. All the belligerents overdeveloped their industrial sector to produce war goods. The major problem in the American, and many other economies, was the maldistribution of wealth. In 1929, 42 percent (11.5 million) of American families made less than $1,500 a year, the government established minimum level of subsistence. Twenty-one percent made less than $1,000 per annum. One-tenth of 1 percent (36,000) of the families at the top received an income nearly equal to the 42 percent of the families on the bottom. This maldistribution meant inadequate purchasing power for the masses.
