The Progressive push for planning:1900 to 1920

.

Chapter 5 in Markets, Planning and the Moral Economy, 2012, pp i-ii from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Markets, Planning and the Moral Economy examines the rise of the Progressive movement in the United States during the early decades of the 20th century, particularly the trend toward increased government intervention in the market system that culminated in the establishment of President Roosevelt’s New Deal programmes. The authors consult writings from politicians, business leaders, and economists of the time, using a variety of historical perspectives to illuminate the conflicting viewpoints that arose as the country struggled to recover from the worst economic downturn in its history.
