Abstract: The current debate on the secular stagnation finds the one launched by Keynes and Hansen (Full Recovery or Stagnation) during the 1937? double-dip. It reached its peak at the end of the war with an anti-stagnationist book by Terborgh (The Bogey of Economic Maturity), the replies of Hansen and his followers and the intervention of many American and European economists. What were the arguments of each other ? Schumpeter was the most famous opponent to Hansen and new dealers. He will publicly oppose the young marxo-hansénien Paul Sweezy in a debate (1946) that Samuelson celebrated as a tournament at a time « when giants walked the earth and Harvard Yard ».
