This text discusses that time in US history often referred to as "the period between the wars". A "New Era", known for the failure of the League of Nations, prohibition and the Depression, it is often seen as a frivolous interlude between two great wars. Ellis Hawley sees this era as characterized by efforts to adapt the war experience to peacetime problems - an era that was innovative - one that led US citizens to search for a new liberalism, which was to be realized through corporative institutions.
