Taking off from a generally liberal starting point in the 1920s, states diverged greatly in their responses. Some were daring while others remained conservative. The two groups further differed among themselves in both degree and kind. The book gives a certain shape to this messy reality by identifying broad policy patterns (paradigms), and offers an explanation of it which emphasizes the ideational disposition of policy actors while recognizing the context that limits what they can do. More specifically, it argues that the ideas held by rulers and the strategies they consequently developed regarding three major groups of interest - business, labour, and, most critically, agrarians - largely determined economic policy variation across nations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Türegün's \u003ci\u003ePolicy Responses to the Interwar Economic Crisis\u003c\/i\u003e makes an important contribution to the comparative political economy of public policy literature. While his focus is on what shaped national responses to the interwar economic crisis, it raises questions about the current period, which is also marked by an ongoing crisis of the hitherto hegemonic neo-liberal paradigm unleashed by global economic turbulence, now exacerbated by COVID-19. In this period, too, we see the rise of protectionism, this time with a strong anti-migrant aspect.
