Placing the Great Depression of 1929-33 and the associated financial crisis at the center of the narrative, the authors comprehensively examined the lead-up to and consequences of the depression and recovery. Peter Temin and Gianni Toniolo (their former co-author, Charles H. Feinstein, has died) now expand their scope to include the entire world economy, and have created a new edition: The World Economy between the Wars. New material focuses on the structure of the world economy in the 1920s, including a special focus on the United States, Japan, and Latin America. In addition, chapters that discuss the post-depression recovery now cover The New Deal and recovery in general in the United States and Japan. This new edition is a necessary update, and invaluable resource for those who desire an overview of the inter-war area beyond the usual discussion of the 19\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen the Charles Feinstein, Peter Temin, and Gianni Toniolo published The European Economy Between the World Wars over ten years ago, it immediately became the standard history of European economic developments in the 1920s and 1930s. Now the authors have expanded the previous work very substantially to the international economy as a whole. The World Economy Between the World Wars is, like its predecessor, destined to be an instant classic. It is a comprehensive and balanced account of one of the most important and perplexing periods in world economic history. The authors analyze the economics, and the political economy, of the global and national trends that culminated in the Great Depression and eventually World War Two. In doing so, they provide both an insightful historical account of a crucial era, and thoughtful observations on its implications for the contemporary age. * Jeff Frieden, Professor of Government, Harvard University *\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eChapter 1:  The interwar economy in a secular perspective ; Chapter 2:  The legacy of the First World War ; Chapter 3:  The crises of the 1920s ; Chapter 4:  Output, productivity and technical progress in the 1920s ; Chapter 5:  International capital movements ; Chapter 6:  The onset of the great depression ; Chapter 7:  Unemployment ; Chapter 8:  The fragmented world of the 1930s ; Chapter 9:  Industrial progress and recovery ; Chapter 10:  Epilogue: the past and the present ; Guide to further reading ; References ; Index","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51766902128983,"sku":"9780195307559","price":64.6,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9780195307559.jpg?v=1758711634","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/world-economy-between-the-world-wars-9780195307559","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
