  • UNEMPLOYMENT in TRADE UNIONS 651 Making Returns Varies
    UNEMPLOYMENT IN TRADE UNIONS 651 making returns varies from month to month, with consequent variation in the membership upon which the percentages of unemployment are based, it should be understood that the figures for each month have reference only to the reporting organizations. Table 16 is a record of unemployment in trade unions for the past 16 years, by provinces. The maximum of unemployment in 1931 was in December, when the percentage stood at 21-1; in 1930 the December figure of 17-0 p.c. con­ stituted the maximum. In both 1930 and 1931 the minimum was reached in April, the percentage of unemployment reported in April, 1931, being 14-9 and in April, 1930, 9-0. Employment among organized workers, as indicated by these statistics, was less active on the average in 1931 than in 1930, the average of the monthly figures of unemployment for 1931 being 16-8 p.c, while for 1930 the corresponding figure was 11 -1 p.c. 16.—Percentages of Unemployment in Trade Unions, by Provinces, half-yearly, 1915-30, and by Months, 1931. NOTE.—For the percentages of unemployment for 12 months in 1921 and 1922, see p. 732 of the 1922-23 Year Book; for 12 months in 1923, p. 688 of the 1924 Year Book; for 12 months in 1924, p. 700 of the 1925 Year Book; for 12 months in 1925, p. 704 of the 1926 Year Book; for 12 months in 1926, p. 757 of the 1927-28 Year Book; for 12 months in 1927, p. 745 of the 1929 Year Book; for 12 months in 1928 and 1929, p.

  • The Japanese Economy During the Interwar Period
    20092009--JE--21 The Japanese Economy during the Interwar Period: 両大戦間期Instabilityの日本における恐慌と政策対応 in the Financial System and ― 金融システム問題と世界恐慌への対応を中心にthe Impact of the World Depression ― Institute for Monetary and Economic Studies 金融研究所 鎮目雅人 Masato Shizume 2009 年 4 月 May 2009 The Japanese economy during the interwar period faced chronic crises. Among them, the Showa Financial Crisis of 1927 and the Showa Depression of 1930-31 marked turning points. The Showa Financial Crisis of 1927 was the consequence of persistent financial instability because of the incomplete restructuring in the business sector and postponements in the disposal of bad loans by financial institutions. The crisis brought reforms in the financial sector through large-scale injections of public funds and the amalgamation of banks. The Showa Depression of 1930-31 was caused by the Great Depression, a worldwide economic collapse, which had been intensified in Japan by the return to the Gold Standard at the old parity. Japan escaped from the Great Depression earlier than most other countries through a series of macroeconomic stimulus measures initiated by Korekiyo Takahashi, a veteran Finance Minister who resumed office in December 1931. Takahashi instituted comprehensive macroeconomic policy measures, including exchange rate, fiscal, and monetary adjustments. At the same time, the Gold Standard, which had been governing Japan’s fiscal policy, collapsed in the wake of the British departure from it in September 1931. Then, Japan introduced a mechanism by which the government could receive easy credit from the central bank without establishing other institutional measures to govern its fiscal policy. This course of events resulted in an eventual loss of fiscal discipline.

  • The Spanish Civil War (1936–39)
    12 CIVIL WAR CASE STUDY 1: THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR (1936–39) ‘A civil war is not a war but a sickness,’ wrote Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. ‘The enemy is within. One fights almost against oneself.’ Yet Spain’s tragedy in 1936 was even greater. It had become enmeshed in the international civil war, which started in earnest with the Bolshevik revolution. From Antony Beevor, The Battle for Spain: The Spanish Civil War 1936–1939 , 2006 The Spanish Civil War broke out in 1936 after more than a century of social, economic and political division. Half a million people died in this conflict between 1936 and 1939. As you read through this chapter, consider the following essay questions: Ģ Why did a civil war break out in Spain in 1936? Ģ How significant was the impact of foreign involvement on the outcome of the Spanish Civil War? General Francisco Franco, the Ģ What were the key effects of the Spanish Civil War? leader who took Nationalist forces to victory in the Spanish Civil War. Timeline of events – 1820–1931 1820 The Spanish Army, supported by liberals, overthrows the absolute monarchy and makes Spain a constitutional monarchy in a modernizing revolution 1821 Absolute monarchy is restored to Spain by French forces in an attempt to reinstate the old order 1833 In an attempt to prevent a female succession following the death of King Ferdinand, there is a revolt by ‘Carlists’. The army intervenes to defeat the Carlists, who nevertheless remain a strong conservative force in Spanish politics (see Interesting Facts box) 1833–69 The army’s influence in national politics increases during the ‘rule of the Queens’ 1869–70 Anarchist revolts take place against the state 1870–71 The monarchy is overthrown and the First Republic is established 1871 The army restores a constitutional monarchy 1875–1918 During this period the constitutional monarchy allows for democratic elections.

We demonstrate in this paper that the crisis was primarily domestic in origin; that it was a currency crisis rather than a banking crisis; and that the failure was more political than economic. We clarify the arguments involved as we present this view. German banks failed in 1931, but the problem was not primarily with them.

  • The 2Nd Republic and the Civil War (1931-1936)
    The 2nd Republic and the Civil War (1931-1936) Juan Carlos Ocaña Aybar [4º ESO ] Geography and History – Bilingual Studies – IES Parque de Lisboa, Alcorcón (Madrid) 4º ESO - The 2nd Republic and the Civil War (1931-1936) The Second Republic (1931-1936) The birth of the Second Republic was the key moment in modern Spanish history. The democratic project that the Republic was based on aroused great hopes in the nation. Nevertheless, five years later the country plunged itself into a gory civil war. The debate over the reasons for the failure of the Republic continues to be one of the most important debates in Spanish historiography today. Puerta del Sol, Madrid, 14 April 1931 The Republic was declared on 14 April 1931. A Provisional Government was established. It was presided over by Niceto Alcalá Zamora and formed by Republicans of all political slants as well as socialists and nationalists. The government was supposed to rule over the country until the new “Cortes Constituyentes” (a parliament whose main goal was to pass a new constitution) gave shape to the new political regime. The new government had to face a tense social environment. While the anarchist CNT promoted a widespread campaign of strikes, the most conservative wing of the Church clashed with the new government. The old sentiment of anticlericalism was flourishing once again and, in May 1931, various churches and convents were burned. The public opinion of the Catholic Church, which involved a significant number of Spaniards, distanced itself from the new republican regime. In June of 1931, a republican-socialist coalition triumphed in the elections of the parliamentary Courts.
