The 1920s and the 1990s in Mutual Reflection
... With the 1913:1984 to 1932:2003 alignment, Figure 1 displays the astonishing similarity of real GDP growth in the 1920s and 1990s. With a base year of 1929=2000=100, we note that the growth rate of real GDP was identical over the intervals 1913-29 and 1984-2000, or alternatively between 1919-29 and ...
