Hoover and the great depression

In 1929, the collapse of the stock market produced the beginning of the Great Depression.

The Hoover administration actually sought measures that helped lay the groundwork for Roosevelt's New Deal.

Hoover launched a massive public works program, part of which included funds for the construction of the Hoover Dam on the Colorado River. His administration implemented stronger labor protections and substantially increased federal agricultural subsidies.

Hoover also played a key role in passing the Glass-Steagall Act of 1932, which limited the activities of commercial banks in an attempt to stabilize the banking sector.

However, many of these policies were not effective immediately, and some of the administration's actions actually made the effects of depression worse.

The Smoot-Hawley Tariffs Act, for example, which Hoover signed because it had no other option, increased tariffs on thousands of imported products and initiated a trade war between the United States and Europe, thus exacerbating the global economic recession.

Although Hoover ran for re-election in 1932, his inability to mitigate the negative economic consequences of the Great Depression had made him very unpopular. He lost the elections to Democrat Franklin D. Roosevelt.

The correct answers are C) calling for immediate federal funding to support financial institutions troubled by bank runs and D) creating a series of federal programs to provide employment on public works.

The steps that the Hoover administration took to fight the early challenges of the Great Depression were the following: calling for immediate federal funding to support financial institutions troubled by bank runs and creating a series of federal programs to provide employment on public works.

President Hoover was criticized by many because he really did not offer a real solution to the thousands of people that had no jobs and were living under harsh economic conditions due to the Great Depression that started when the US stock market crashed on October 29, 1929. The help really came with President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who created the New Deal, a series of programs aimed to help the poor American citizens.

Which Central Asian country had been engaged in a civil war that was brought to a head by the aftermath of the September 11th te
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer: The Central Asian states (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan) face common security challenges from crime, corruption, terrorism, and faltering commitments to economic and democratic reforms. However, cooperation among them remains halting, so security in the region is likely in the near term to vary by country. Kyrgyzstan’s and Tajikistan’s futures are most clouded by ethnic and territorial tensions, and corruption in Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan could spoil benefits from the development of their ample energy resources. Authoritarianism and poverty in Uzbekistan could contribute to a succession crisis. On the other hand, Kyrgyzstan’s beleaguered civil society might eventually help the relatively small nation safeguard its independence. Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan might become regional powers able to champion policy solutions to common Central Asian problems and to resist undue influence from more powerful outside powers, because of their large territories and populations and energy and other resources.

Internal political developments in several bordering or close-by states may have a large impact on Central Asian security. These developments include a more authoritarian and globalist Russia, an economically growing China, instability in Iran and the South Caucasus region, and re-surging drug production and Islamic extremism in Afghanistan.

After the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States, the former Bush Administration established bases and other military access in the region to support U.S.-led coalition operations in Afghanistan. The Obama Administration has highlighted U.S. interests in such continued access as well as the long-term security and stability of the region. U.S. interests in Central Asia include combating terrorism, drug production, and trafficking; assisting the development of oil and other resources; and fostering democratization, human rights, free markets, and trade. The United States also seeks to thwart dangers posed to its security by the illicit transfer of strategic missile, nuclear, biological, and chemical weapons technologies, materials, and expertise to terrorist states or groups, and to address threats posed to regional independence by Iran. Some critics counter that the United States has historically had few interests in this region, and advocate only limited U.S. contacts undertaken with Turkey and other friends and allies to ensure U.S. goals. They also urge these friends and allies to enhance their energy security by taking the lead in the development of diverse export routes for Central Asia’s energy resources.

Most in Congress have supported U.S. assistance to bolster independence and reforms in Central Asia. The 106th Congress authorized a “Silk Road” initiative for greater policy attention and aid for democratization, market reforms, humanitarian needs, conflict resolution, transport infrastructure (including energy pipelines), and border controls. The 108th and subsequent Congresses have imposed conditions on foreign assistance to Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, based on their human rights records. Congress has continued to debate the balance between U.S. security interests in the region and interests in democratization and the protection of human rights.
