Lecture 19
The Great Depression and the New Deal
The stock market crash of 1929 was an indication of serious, underlying problems in the United States economy, but it was not the sole cause of the Great Depression. The Crash merely made the cracks in America's superficial prosperity much more obvious. And, since the causes of the economic crises were complex, the solution to the economic problems facing the United States would be complicated as well. This lecture examines the first few years of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's administration, the New Deal, and the federal government's attempt to lift America out of the Depression. Some questions to keep in mind:
  • What role did the unequal distribution of wealth play in sustaining the Depression? What techniques did FDR use to boost his popularity? Was he successful? Compare Hoover's philosophy of government to FDR's. Were there any salient differences? Explain the concept of "the broker state." How did FDR go about doing the duties of a modern president?
  • Cracks in the Economic Foundation
    After the Great Crash, the American public sought a scapegoat for the economic collapse. Some held President Hoover responsible, others targeted the "three B's"brokers, bankers, and businessmen. But the cause of the Great Depression could not be attributed to one individual or even a group of people. The roots of the Great Depression were in the very structure of the American economy, namely:

    Lecture 18
    The Crash and the Great Depression
    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. Some questions to keep in mind:
  • Why were Americans so confident in the stock market in the years leading up to the Great Depression? How did the Psychology of Consumption shape the causes and effects of the Crash? How did stock market investing change during the 1920s? Who were the main investors and how did they pay for their investments? Explain the statement: "By 1929, much of the money that was invested in the stock market did not actually exist."

US-Geschichte Deutsch In October 1929 the stock market crashed, wiping out 40 percent of the paper values of common stock and triggering a worldwide depression. By 1933 the value of stock on the New York Stock Exchange was less than a fifth of what it had been in 1929. Business houses closed their doors, factories shut down and banks failed. Farm income fell some 50 percent. By 1932 approximately one out of every four Americans was unemployed. The core of the problem was the immense disparity between the country's productive capacity and the ability of people to consume. Great innovations in productive techniques during and after the war raised the output of industry beyond the purchasing capacity of U.S. farmers and wage earners. The presidential campaign of 1932 was chiefly a debate over the causes and possible remedies of the Great Depression. The Republican Herbert Hoover planned to depend largely on natural processes of recovery, while the Democrat Franklin D. Roosevelt was prepared to use the federal government's authority for bold experimental remedies. Roosevelt was elected president on the platform of a "New Deal" for the American people.

    Government intervention Coping with the depression ... Related Sites Many books and reports have been written about The Great Depression yet there is very little known about African-American life during the depression. Our intent is to gather information on the historical, economic, and social impact of the Great Depression on the African-American community. Some background information
    The Great Depression started with the Wall Street stock market crash of 1929 and began the worst economic crisis in the history of the United States. It had devastating effects on all sectors of the economy for over a decade. Hundreds of thousands of people lost their jobs, businesses failed and financial institutions collapsed. Wages for workers who were lucky enough to have jobs fell drastically. The unemployed stood in long lines at soup kitchens waiting for something to eat and many went hungry. The duration of the depression was too long for any community to endure such hardship. Listed below are some of the topics we have briefly addressed and will be expanded as more information becomes available.
    Government intervention
    These are steps taken by the federal government to reduce unemployment and were also beneficial to African-Americans.

    The Library of Congress The Depths of Depression On July 8 , 1932, the stock market fell to its lowest point during the Depression. The Great Crash, as it was known, had begun in the autumn of 1929, sparking a decade of economic stagnation known as the Great Depression. The market expanded rapidly during the 1920s, attracting many inexperienced investors. George Mehales, a Greek immigrant who owned a diner in Spartanburg, South Carolina, began buying stocks just before the crash. "One day," he recalled in a Federal Writers' Project interview

    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...
