On Capital Accumulation and the Decline of Domestic Economy in America: Historical Context and the "Great Depression"

美国的"经济大萧条"暴露了家庭经济的发展与资本积累之间的矛盾。根据积累理论,通过制度分析和时间序列分析,可以揭示家庭经济恶化与资本积累之间的历史关联。资本积累的良性运转必须以家庭消费支出的不断增长为前提,但是政府却仅为之提供了十分有限的保障,在前所未有的债务负担下,家庭经济恶化就成为不可避免。

The 'Great Economic Depression' of America has exposed the contradiction between thegrowth of domestic economy and capital accumulation. By analyzing institutions and time seriesin accordance with accumulation theory, the historical context between domestic economicdegradation and capital accumulation is revealed.

When burdened with unprecedented debt, domestic economy will, inevitably, take a turn for the worse.
