UNIT 8 - PERIOD BETWEEN WORLD WARS

Para todos La 2 - El crack de 1929

El crack de la bolsa de Nueva York de Octubre de 1929 fue el inicio de la mayor recesión económica que el sistema capitalista ha vivido en toda su historia.

El hundimiento del mayor mercado de valores del mundo arrastró a la ruina a miles de inversores, dando paso a la gran depresión de los años 30, que no sólo afectó a la economía mundial sino que tuvo importantes consecuencias políticas, sociales e ideológicas.

Para desentrañar sus causas y consecuencias hemos invitado a Gabriel Tortella, Catedrático de Historia de la Economía de la Universidad de Alcalá de Henares; y Jordi Maluquer, Catedrático de Historia de la Economía de la Universidad Autónoma de Barcelon

PLAY WITH ROMAN GODS AND THEIR ATTRIBUTES

Do you want to review before the exam? Using flash cards could be a good idea.

¿Como funciona? Es muy fácil. Te vas a encontrar tarjetas en las que aparecen los dioses y sus atributos en la misma cara, de esta manera los puedes estudiar.
¿Quieres comprobar que te los sabes? Desmarca la casilla Ambos lados y ya solo verás una cara de la tarjeta, los atributos o el nombre del dios. Para saber si has acertado haz click sobre la tarjeta y verás la respuesta.

¡Simple pero efectivo!
