The Great Depression was unusual because it was so deep and lasted so long. In fact, it was actually two separate recessions (Au

gust 1929 to March 1933, and May 1937 to June 1938). The Great Depression was also characterized by another striking condition: Prices across the economy declined throughout the course of the decade. In fact, at the end of the 1930s, the general price level, as measured by the GDP deflator, was 20% lower than it had been in 1929.

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

Great depression was started in 1929 and it's negative effect lasted till the beginning of 2nd World War. During this period global GDP fell by around 15 percent. It's intensity can be estimated from the fact that during Great recession of 2008-2009 the global GDP fell by around 1 percent only. Great depression was marked by steep in the industrial production and price deflation.

Major causes for the Great depression of 1929:

  1. Fall of stock market led to loss of confidence in economy which hence reduced the investment and spending.
  2. Banking panic caused many banks to fail which in result reduced money supply.
  3. Imposition of steep tariffs on industrial and agricultural caused global trade to shrink.

Result of Great depression was that around 20 percent banks failed by 1933, unemployment rate reached more than 25 percent, Industrial production declined to around 50 percent and GDP fell near to 30 percent.

Recovery of United States economy was majorly led by government spending on social welfare program along with currency devaluation and spending during the 2nd World War.

I hope this will help.

What was cesar chavez's key tactic
Colt1911 [192]
When Filipino American farm workers initiated the Delano grape strike on September 8, 1965, to protest for higher wages, Chávez eagerly supported them. Six months later, Chávez and the NFWA led a strike of California grape pickers on the historic farmworkers march from Delano to the California state capitol in Sacramento for similar goals. The UFW encouraged all Americans to boycott table grapes as a show of support. The strike lasted five years and attracted national attention. 

<span>In the early 1970s, the UFW organized strikes and boycotts—including the Salad Bowl strike, the largest farm worker strike in U.S. history—to protest for, and later win, higher wages for those farm workers who were working for grape and lettuce growers. The union also won passage of the California Agricultural Labor Relations Act, which gave collective bargaining rights to farm workers. During the 1980s, Chávez led a boycott to protest the use of toxic pesticides on grapes. Bumper stickers reading "NO GRAPES" and "UVAS NO" (the translation in Spanish) were widespread. He again fasted to draw public attention. UFW organizers believed that a reduction in produce sales by 15% was sufficient to wipe out the profit margin of the boycotted product. These strikes and boycotts generally ended with the signing of bargaining agreements. </span>

<span>Chávez undertook a number of spiritual fasts, regarding the act as “a personal spiritual transformation”. In 1968, he fasted for 25 days, promoting the principle of nonviolence. In 1970, Chávez began a fast of ‘thanksgiving and hope’ to prepare for pre-arranged civil disobedience by farm workers. Also in 1972, he fasted in response to Arizona’s passage of legislation that prohibited boycotts and strikes by farm workers during the harvest seasons. These fasts were influenced by the Catholic tradition of doing penance and by Gandhi’s fasts and emphasis of nonviolence.
 
He used boycotting as well</span>
