La escritura de María Luisa Puga muestra una preocupación profunda por retratar la circunstancia inmediata del ser en el México contemporáneo. Este estudio examina la manera en que Puga se acerca a la problemática socio-cultural del país, y reflexiona sobre la ubicación de su obra dentro de las tendencias de la literatura mexicana del presente. El realismo de Puga resalta las preocupaciones íntimas - la escritura autobiográfica, la búsqueda de la identidad del ser, la historia en la cotidianidad del hombre y la mujer. Su ficción se une al nuevo realismo que evidencia la narrativa mexicana de las dos últimas décadas; es una literatura que regresa a contar, con una técnica, aparentemente, sencilla y un lenguaje directo y natural.

The Economics of the Great Depression

Certain events define eras. The Great Depression, for instance, exemplifies the interwar period leading up to World War II. But, as it turns out, the reach of the Great Depression extends to this day, two generations after the event occurred. Policies enacted during the those tumultuous times continue to define basic structures of the American economy, and economists are still unsure of exactly what caused our most severe economic downturn. It's no wonder, then, that understanding the Great Depression is often seen as the "Holy Grail" of economics. This book contributes to our understanding of the Great Depression's immediate and long-term impacts on the American economy. Editor Mark Wheeler has gathered six scholars from a range of subdisciplines within economics who, together, offer a diverse look at the Depressions's effects on the nation's GDP, workers and labor markets, and monetary policy. Included in this volume are Labor and Labor Markets in the 1930s, by Robert A. Margo. Margo surveys recent research on the immediate impact of the Great Depression on labor and labor markets. His analysis includes use of both macro- and microeconomic data, with an emphasis on the latter. He also contributes preliminary empirical findings on the patterns of self-employment during the late 1930s. Uneven Impacts of the Great Depression: Industries, Regions, and Nations, by Carol E. Heim. The Great Depression did not hit everyone equally. While millions lost jobs and suffered through humbling poverty, others kept working and benefitted from their wages' increased buying power. While some industries tanked, others prospered. Professor Heim reveals the uneven impacts of the Great Depression on various industries, regions, and nations, and attempts to explain these inconsistencies. The Great Depression as a Historical Problem, by Michael A. Bernstein. Bernstein summarizes the views of a number of well-known macroeconomists who offered notable interpretations of the Great Depression (Friedman and Schwartz, Keynes, and Temin). He then analyzes the views of economists who viewed the event from outside the realm of "conventional" macroeconomic theory (including Harris, Sweezy, Kindleberger, and Lewis), and he concludes with a discussion of Steindl's ideas on economic maturity. Propagation of the Depression: Theories and Evidence, by James S. Fackler. Fackler begins by reminding us that, despite the fact that six decades have passed since the Great Depression, the factors involved in propagating this tragic economic downfall remain subject to debate. He then reviews and tests theories of the causes of the Great Depression, including one of the early theories that has been subjected to relatively little empirical analysis, the debt-deflation hypothesis. Monetary Policy in the Great Depression and Beyond: The Sources of the Fed's Inflation Bias, by David C. Wheelock. Wheelock asserts that the Great Depression caused lasting changes in monetary institutions that ultimately imparted an inflationary bias to the Federal Reserve's monetary policy. Indeed, he argues that the Fed's inflationary policy "led to the collapse of the Bretton Woods System and abandonment of international linkages altogether." Wheelock also offers a list of the most enduring institutional reforms for monetary policy that were enacted during the Great Depression. Understanding the Great Depression: Lessons for Current Policy, by Stephen G. Cecchetti. Cecchetti spells out lessons for current policy that can be gleaned from studying the monetary policy in effect during the Great Depression. His examination leads him to describe three main lessons for current policymakers: 1) The central bank's function as a lender of last resort is of primary importance in the short-term stabilization of the financial system, 2) Deflation is extremely costly and must be avoided, and 3) A gold standard is very dangerous.
