By 1933, Franklin Roosevelt inherited an economy in ruins: twenty-five percent unemployment, ten thousand failed banks, and a stock market down eighty-seven percent from its 1929 peak. The New Deal that followed was not a single programme but a cascade of relief, structural reform, and institutional reinvention — the Civilian Conservation Corps, Social Security, the Wagner Act, Glass-Steagall, and the SEC among them. But did it work?
This episode sits in the harder, slower question that follows the drama of Black Thursday and the shuttered banks: what did government do next, and was it enough? The case for the New Deal is substantial. Unemployment fell from twenty-five to fourteen percent by 1937. Deposit insurance ended the bank-run dynamic that had destroyed the money supply. Roosevelt's bank holiday of March 1933 restored confidence where Hoover had failed entirely. Glass-Steagall held for sixty-six years.
But the critique is serious. The Roosevelt Recession of 1937 — triggered by premature fiscal tightening and the Federal Reserve raising reserve requirements — sent unemployment surging again, exposing the fragility beneath the recovery. The Depression didn't end until wartime spending in the early 1940s. Some economists argue the New Deal's interventions prolonged uncertainty and suppressed private investment. The debate is not academic: it directly shaped the policy responses to the 2008 financial crisis, and the argument is still alive today.
This is Episode 10 of the series tracing the full arc of the 1929 Wall Street Crash — from the margin calls and bucket shops of October 1929, through the Federal Reserve's catastrophic contraction, to the eight-year climb back and the lessons that had to be relearned seventy years later.
