Many of the themes of this module center on social and political responses to periods of tumultuous change: Industrialization, women’s suffrage, and increased uses of executive power amid the Great Depression and World War II. These responses reshaped partisan loyalties that continue to impact how we view national politics in the 21st century. For this discussion, let’s look at those partisan loyalties, and how they took shape during the Great Depression. Please create posts that engage with other students in:
– Describing how solutions to the deep economic depression of the 1930s were proposed to and received by voters. Who all was proposing solutions? Which solutions gained traction among voters and why?
– Reflecting on how the Progressive Movement earlier in the 20th century helped shape the policy making and political responses of the New Deal era.
– Analyzing what sectors of the U.S. citizenry were excluded from debates on New Deal policies and the benefits of these programs, and why.
– Comparing and contrasting the levels of bipartisanship that existed then with that of the present time period.
– Assessing how party loyalties that took shape in the 1930s evolved through the 1940s and into the present.
– Comparing and contrasting the economic impacts of worldwide recessions on the US and other countries.
