We've been reading various interpretations on the causes of the Great Depression, and we've been evaluating them by asking how well they connect to the depression (decline in GDP and high unemployment) and whether we see what we should see if this is a cause. Now we're going to have a discussion about three of these interpretations: 1. Monetary causes (gold standard/Federal Reserve Bank policies), 2. International trade, 3. unequal distribution of wealth. How strong are each of these as causes? You can comment on any one of them. Have fun!
