“…They combined rich natural resources such as forests, ore deposits, fishing, land and oil with a late integration into the globalization process, in addition to mergers and acquisitions between large firms and, after WWII, the expansion of the public sector and welfare system (Henning et al 2011 The inability to create a stable international system after WWI ultimately resulted in WWII.

Esta es la versión de autor del artículo publicado en: This is an author produced version of a paper published in: We analyze the historical processes underlying this last empirical finding: peacetime periods, monetary arrangements, trade and investment flows, and industrial boosts are confluent forces driving the economic dynamism. After 1950, we observe a common business cycle factor that groups all economies, which is consistent with the consolidation of the so-called second globalization.

Gold Standard Lessons for the Eurozone

This article explores some lessons of the gold standard for the eurozone crisis with specific focus on the interwar period. Resurrected in the 1920s, the interwar gold standard malfunctioned from the onset, contributing to the Great Depression's quick propagation and severity, and its abandonment between 1929 and 1936 was a critical factor in ending the Great Depression, with countries devaluing earlier and more sizeably recovering more quickly. The intricate combination of similarities and differences with the present situation makes one of two outcomes likely: either some countries will eventually leave the eurozone to boost their growth prospects; or, the eurozone will remain intact as a result of stronger political co-operation today, but a poorly working internal adjustment mechanism could result in low growth rates for the foreseeable future, similar to the experience of the gold bloc countries in the 1930s.
