Depression

3 Volumes

In the 1880s a Royal Commission was appointed to investigate the extent, nature and causes of industrial depression. The commission attempted to cover the entire range of British industry, dealing with separate trades and industries as integral parts of a whole. The reports and minutes of evidence present a comprehensive picture of the nation’s economy from both the domestic and international points of view.
Many of the problems investigated and points raised by the commission are as important today as they were in the eighties; tariff barriers, redundancy, prices and incomes, devaluation, quality of workmanship, the necessity for new markets.
