  • Exile and Repatriation in the Barrios: the Great Depression in La Prensa and La Opinión, 1930-1932
    Camino Real 7: 10. (2015): 93-108 Exile and Repatriation in the Barrios: The Great Depression in La Prensa and La Opinión, 1930-1932 NANCY A. AGUIRRE Abstract During the Great Depression, La Prensa and La Opinión were two of the top-selling Spanish-language newspapers in the United States. These publications, established by Porfirista exile Ignacio E. Lozano, served the Mexican immigrant community, known as el México de afuera, by reporting news from Mexico and the United States, and by encouraging charitable work during the economic crisis. More importantly, these newspapers published news and commentary related to the repatriation of approximately one million Mexicans and Mexican-Americans during the 1930s, a policy enacted by the U.S. government. This essay examines the reactions of La Prensa and La Opinión to repatriation, and the important perspective they provide on forced displacement from both sides of the U.S./Mexico border. Lozano and his staff were political exiles, banished from Mexico for criticizing the country’s revolutionary regime. Consequently, their political situation in Mexico and the fear of deportation influenced their non-combative reactions to repatriation. Nonetheless, Lozano and his colleagues considered themselves opinion leaders in the Mexican barrios, and they helped barrio residents by promoting charity work. They also maintained a sense of the optimism of the 1920s by publishing columns on sports, Hollywood, and popular Nancy Aguirre, Assistant Professor of History at The Citadel. She has published work on the exile newspaperLa Prensa and its implications on politics and gender in the U.S./Mexico borderlands. Aguirre, N. A.

  • Currency Vs. Banking in the Financial Crisis of 1931∗
    Crisis? What Crisis? Currency vs. Banking in the Financial Crisis of 1931∗ Albrecht Ritschl Samad Sarferaz LSE and CEPR ETH Zurich Dept. of Economic History KOF Swiss Economic Institute Houghton Street Weinbergstrasse 35 London WC2A 2AE, UK 8092 Zurich, Switzerland Phone: +44-20-7795-6482 Phone: +41-44-632-4683 E-mail: [email protected] E-mail: [email protected] December 2, 2010 Abstract This paper examines the role of currency and banking in the German financial crisis of 1931 for both Germany and the U.S. We specify a structural dynamic factor model to identify financial and monetary factors separately for each of the two economies. In contrast to conventional wisdom, we find only a minor role for monetary policy transmission, while financial distress was important. Monetary or financial crisis prop- agation from the U.S. to Germany was weak. Instead there is evidence of substantial crisis transmission from Germany to the U.S. via the banking channel. We also find major real effects of the 1931 crisis on both economies, again transmitted via the bank- ing channel. Financial distress itself responded more strongly to real than to monetary factors. Results confirm Bernanke's (1983) conjecture that a non-monetary financial channel of crisis propagation was operative in the Great Depression. JEL: N12, N13, E37, E47, C53 Keywords: Great Depression, banking channel, 1931 financial crisis, international business cycle transmission, factor analysis ∗This research was funded by Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft under Collaborative Research Project SFB 649.
