Part 2

                  The Great
                      depression
                  Fascist Solution



Friday, 22 March 13
How did the Roaring 20s lead to a
                     global 鍖nancial collapse?
          1. Stock Market Crash of 1929 in America
       Many believe erroneously that the stock market crash that occurred on Black
       Tuesday, October 29, 1929, is one and the same with the Great Depression. In fact, it
       was one of the major causes that led to the Great Depression. Two months after the
       original crash in October, stockholders had lost more than $40 billion dollars. Even
       though the stock market began to regain some of its losses, by the end of 1930, it just
       was not enough and America truly entered what is called the Great Depression.
       2. Bank Failures

       3. Reduction in Purchasing Across the Board
       Australia was one the hardest hit countries due to our dependance on Agricultural
       and Industrial exports.
       Unemployment in Australia rose to a record high in 1932 of 29%

Social consequences of the Great Depression:
      working class children consistently leaving school at thirteen or fourteen years old
      married women carrying a greater domestic burden: home-making was still considered a
       woman's role, so even if a woman had worked all day scrubbing 鍖oors to bring in some money, her
       unemployed husband would still expect her to cook dinner and keep the house in order
      jobs being easier to 鍖nd for young people, but the work had little future career prospects and
       many young workers were sacked by the time they turned sixteen, eighteen or twenty-one years of
       age
      migrants, particularly those from Italy and southern Europe, being resented because they
       worked for less wages than others despite having relatively little in the way of family or friends to
       call on for help.

How could such a depression help pave the way
                    to a Fascist Government taking over?




                       What does Fascism mean?

Your Task...
                      1. Research the Great Depression in Australia
                         individually.
                      2. Write down ten facts that you feel are relevant to the
                         conversation about how a nation deal with an
                         economic down turn.
                      3. Discuss what you think is the best path to recovery,
                         what works, what doesnt work as per Historical
                         records.
