<u>During the decade of the 1930s the Great Depression severly affected the US economy and was the central issue to be dealt with</u>. During Roosevelt's presidency, the New Deal was implemented (between 1933 and 1938)as a packet of measures designed to combat the harsh situation of the US economy.
The New Deal was based on Keynesian economics that identified, as the major cause of the Great Depression, the extremely low aggregate demand figures. This solution aimed to boost demand figures by directing large sums of public money to the creation of job positions for the large unemployed sectors of popualtion, so that they could start to earn a salary and to demand products again. Large sums of money were pumped into public works (roads, constructions, etc).
<u>Therefore, the Keynesian solution to the Great Depression brought goverment interventionism in the economy at all levels.</u> Also more regulations were demanded for the economy, in order to prevent a similar crisis the future.
Moreover, these severe domestic problems fostered the establishment of a policy of isolationism. The US ignored the tensions that were ocurring in Europe, the emergence of fascism and some other issues that subsequently would lead to WWII.

The Jungle exposed the terrible situations of the meatpacking industry, brought it to the limelight what was really happening when the government didn't step into businesses. It shadowed a hard working immigrant family and the struggles they faced when coming to America. One of the biggest things it brought to light was the terrible situations seen at a meat packing facility. It also brought up numerous other issues, such as the circumstances employees had to work in, prostitution, and immigration. Although this was a fictional story it was based in reality for a working family. It became widely widespread and people called for change. Sinclair wrote it in hopes that more people would become social democrats. He said 'I aimed at the public's heart and by accident, I hit it in the stomach'. He may not have had as big of an impression as he had expected, but he did get the American people up in arms that Congress passed a bill within weeks to try and talk some of the issues that people saw in The Jungle. This is one of many things that Progressives sought to achieve.
