From the Great Depression to the Great War (1873–1914)

Michel Beaud

Chapter 4 in A History of Capitalism 1500–1980, 1981, pp 117-144 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Before capitalism became dominant, economic life was shaken, more or less regularly, by changes in weather conditions, good and bad harvests, demographic changes, and wars. The whole phase of capitalist industrialization was accomplished through cyclical movements having a certain regularity: periods of prosperity and euphoria checked by a recession or broken by a crisis.
