Think about all the changes that occurred during the New Deal, and then explain why 1929 and the onset of the Great Depression is a turning point in American history.
Solution
VerifiedThe Great Crash of 1929 and the onset of the Great Depression marked a major turning point in American history because the response, in the form of the New Deal, set a precedent for decades to come of an increased role for government in the daily lives of Americans. For the first time, Americans were looking to the federal government to provide them with aid, employment, and protections in the market. While many view these changes as necessary developments to prevent future economic instability and protect against poverty, others see the New Deal as the beginning of the end of an American tradition of “limited government.”
