Dietmar Rothermund broadens the conventional focus of the great depression to include its impact on the countries of Africa, Asia and Latin America. The book:
* gives the economic background to the depression
* examines the causes of the great depression, from the international gold standard to agricultural over-production in the US
* describes the effects on different countries from the Americas to India, Africa and East Asia
* pays particular attention to the impact on the peasantry in developing countries
* considers the political consequences, such as fascism in Europe
* assesses the aftermath and the re-alignment of America, Europe and their colonies
* explains key areas, such as Keynesian theory, in accessible terms.
