In the last century, around the 1930s, women had no right to vote and very seldom could they drive a car.

John Maynard Keynes was not off by much when he famously predicted in 1930 that the human race's economic problem, the struggle for subsistence, was likely to be solved, or be at least within sight of solution, within a hundred years. It will take another generation, perhaps, before robots have completely taken over manufacturing, kitchen work, and construction and the developing world looks to be 50 years behind.

Thus, despite global leaders vows to the contrary, it seems that the dreadful protectionist precedent of the 1930 s is about to be revived. That decade s trade war was started by the US with the Smoot Hawley tariff of 1930.

Friedman and Schwartz are generally seen as reproving the Fed for failing to react swiftly to successive waves of bank failures, first in late 1930 and then again in 1931 and 1933. But a close reading reveals that the authors reserve their most scathing criticism for the Fed s failure to initiate a concerted program of security purchases in the first half of 1930 in order to prevent those bank failures.

Third, United States President Franklin D. Roosevelt invoked the rebus doctrine to suspend American obligations under the International Load Line Convention of 1930.

In particular, it was noted that the draft article could have contained a specific reference to the domestic law of States, as had been the case in the 1930 Hague Convention on Certain Questions relating to the Conflict of Nationality Laws.

Lastly, he acknowledged that the Constitution, which had been written in the early 1930s, was male oriented, but expressed hope that it would be altered in time.

When I consider the European economy, the ECB s failure to provide more monetary support for economic growth appears to be directly analogous to Europe s disastrous monetary policies in the 1930 s. The political consequences could be similarly devastating.

BERKELEY Four times in the past century, a large chunk of the industrial world has fallen into deep and long depressions characterized by persistent high unemployment the United States in the 1930 s, industrialized Western Europe in the 1930 s, Western Europe again in the 1980 s, and Japan in the 1990 s. Two of these downturns Western Europe in the 1980 s and Japan in the 1990 s cast a long and dark shadow on future economic performance.

In 1930 this country went through a Great Depression, which led to all the ideas of the state and social security, and all the other things that happened in Roosevelt's time.

In fact, the architect of our national accounting system, Simon Kuznets, in the 1930s, said that, A nation's welfare can scarcely be inferred from their national income.

So, for all his distinction as a philosopher of freedom, Hayek deserved to lose his battle with Keynes in the 1930 s. He deserves to lose today s rematch as well.

But this scenario failed to materialize. Instead, the crisis stemmed from the US sub prime debacle, which quickly dragged the global economy into its deepest recession since the 1930 s.

Then again, perhaps it is to be expected that I find the analogy with the 1930 s compelling. That was the defining episode for American monetary policy.

The question was whether the conventions dating from the early 1930s, which were concluded prior to the entry into force of the Statute, might rank as a treaty in force for purposes of Article 35, paragraph 2, and hence provide a basis of access to the Court.

One of them is in elite art since the 1930s say, the kinds of works performed by major symphony orchestras, where most of the repertory is before 1930, or the works shown in major galleries and prestigious museums.

3.

On the other hand, when I contemplate the US economy, I conclude that recovery from the Great Depression, and not 1924 1927 or 2003 2005, is the episode that most closely resembles current circumstances. Only in the 1930 s were interest rates near zero.

Obviously nobody has been able to go back to 1930, get all the people born in one maternity unit, and half of them eat lots of fruit and veg and olive oil, and then half of them eat McDonald's, and then we see how many wrinkles you've got later.

This crisis of long term unemployment is having a profoundly damaging impact on the lives of those bearing the brunt of it. We know this thanks to a series of careful studies of the problem conducted in the depths of the 1930 s Great Depression.

First, the good news the economic side of the case.China s response of to the world economic crisis is the central reason why the financial turbulence that emanated from the US sub prime debacle did not completely destroy the world economy and lead to a repeat of the 1930 s Great Depression.

This response is understandably controversial, because it rewards those who bet on risky assets, many of whom accepted risk with open eyes and bear some responsibility for causing the crisis. But an effective rescue cannot be done any other way.

For those unfortunate enough to experience it, long term unemployment now, as in the 1930 s is a tragedy. And, for society as a whole, there is the danger that the productive capacity of a significant portion of the labor force will be impaired.

In the past, when state economic decision making reached such an impasse, wars and or revolutions were the inevitable result. As we face the type of turning point decisions not seen since the darkest days of the 1930 s, can we avoid such an outcome?

By way of providing the historical context of the situation of women in his country, the representative explained that as early as the 1930s, the late President Kim Il Sung had begun a programme of emancipating women completely from centuries old feudal discrimination and oppression.

The Great Depression of the 1930 s was interpreted as the result of inadequate consumption, of poverty in the midst of plenty. Governments took on the responsibility of stabilizing and organizing consumption on a wider level.

There was certainly a great deal of this type of sentiment in the 1930 s, when the populist response to the Great Depression attributed it to the sinister forces of international capital. The modern version of this explanation holds that the world is changing so quickly that national security and, indeed, national identity, are under threat.
