The Economic Landscape of the 1920s

Post-War Boom and Depression (1919–1921)

• 1919–1920: Post-War "Boom" – This period was characterized by a short and abrupt increase in prices, repressed demand, scarce supply, and accumulated savings. This brief boom had beneficial effects, particularly in increasing employment.
• 1920–1921: Post-War Depression – This phase involved the conversion costs of transitioning from a war economy to a peace economy. Falling prices made the payment of allied debts difficult, leading to increased production and a deflationary process. Furthermore, the contraction of American foreign credit reduced the availability of capital, resulting in chronic unemployment, restrictions on immigration, and a return to protectionism

Statistical Moments

A moment is a specific quantitative measure that characterizes a distribution. Two distributions are equal if their moments are equal.

Types of Moments:

• Related to the origin (0 as a reference)
• Related to the mean (μ as a reference)

M_r = (Σ(X_i – O)^r.n_i)/N

Where:

• X: individual observations
• r: Order of the moment (Order zero: r=0, First order: r=1, Second order: r=2, Third order: r=3)
• O: Origin or reference point
• n: frequency of each observation
• N: total number of observations

Properties:

• All moments of r=0 are equal to 1.
• Moments related to the mean are frequently called central moments.
• Moments with reference point 0 are frequently called ordinary moments.
• The arithmetic mean corresponds to the ordinary moment of the first order (r=

Cost Accounting

Cost Accounting is a branch of accounting and has been developed due to limitations of financial accounting. Financial accounting is primarily concerned with record keeping directed towards the preparation of Profit and Loss Account and Balance Sheet.

The limitations of Financial Accounting which led to the development of cost accounting

Transitivity Alternations

The Middle Alternation

The middle alternation involves a change in a verb's transitivity. Transitive verbs with an agent subject and a patient object can have an intransitive pattern. The subject of this intransitive pattern takes on the role of the object in the transitive use, followed by an adverbial or prepositional phrase.

Example:

• Transitive: The carpenter sawed the wood.
• Intransitive: The wood saws easily.

Verbs allowing the middle alternation express a change of state in the object. The middle construction emphasizes the subject being affected by the action (affectedness constraint). Verbs like pat or touch, where the object isn't affected, don't allow this construction.

Example:

• They hit the ball.
• *The ball hits easily.

During the Cold War, the USSR (Communist bloc) and the USA (Capitalist bloc) tried to convince the Third World to become part of their respective blocks, each showing distinct advantages.

US Strategy and Latin American Relations

The USA sought to demonstrate strength by controlling Latin America, often through exploitation. The US promoted free trade, but this faced difficulties in Latin America because local governments wanted complete control and resisted economic integration. Factors like product pricing and difficult geography also posed challenges.

US intentions were complicated by the relationship between China and the USSR (Triangulation). This was problematic because Khrushchev criticized Stalin, opposing his brand of communism. Furthermore,... Continue reading "Cold War Dynamics and Third World Economic Development" »
