Question: The US economy did recover from the numerous crises of the 1970s to some extent, but the period (1981–now) was very different from the 'golden age' of the 1950s and 1960s. Name and describe a few of the most significant contrasts between these two economic eras (NOT the crisis years of the 1970s) for this task, as well as some of the possible explanations.
In other words, how do these two eras differ from one another, and how can we account for those differences?
Can someone tell me if this conclusion it’s good?:
The shift in economic policy framework since 1981 toward a more neoliberal one may be one explanation for these disparities. Deregulation, privatization, and free trade are prioritized in this framework with the hope that these measures will promote economic growth and improved productivity. Critics contend that these policies, which put the priorities of businesses and the wealthy ahead of those of workers and society as a whole, are to blame for the rise in income disparity and the reduction in productivity development.
A further factor in the rise in income inequality and reduction in employment stability since the 1980s has been the decline in unionization and the erosion of worker safeguards.
