Lessons from the Great Depression for Economic Recovery in 2009
Christina D. Romer
Council of Economic Advisers
.

One crucial lesson from the 1930s is that a small fiscal expansion has only small effects.
.

A second key lesson from the 1930s is that monetary expansion can help to heal an economy even when interest rates are near zero.
.

This discussion of fiscal and monetary policy in the 1930s leads me to a third lesson from the Great Depression: beware of cutting back on stimulus too soon.
.

The fourth lesson we can draw from the recovery of the 1930s is that financial recovery and real recovery go together
.

The fifth lesson from the Great Depression is that worldwide expansionary policy shares the burdens and the benefits of recovery.
.

The final lesson that I want to draw from the 1930s is perhaps the most crucial. A key feature of the Great Depression is that it did eventually end.
