Crisis of identity, 1920-1945


REPUBLICAN CONSERVATISM, 1920-32 - 13
 After WW1, American politics became a lot more conservative and inward, beginning
another long period of Republican dominance
 The Democratic party was divided and ineffective, at least nationally, in which all Progressive
ideals were falling
 Warren Harding won the 1920 election, and with the prosperity of the 1920’s boom,
Republican conservatism (with its pro-business policies) appeared to fit
 After Harding died, Coolidge, his VP, took over, whom easily won the 1924 election (previous
Massachusetts governor)
 When Coolidge decided not to run again in 1928, he was succeeded by another Republican,
Herbert Hoover
o In his inauguration, he appeared invincible, as a politician of high abilities, with a
booming economy, and weak appearing political opponents
o But the Great Depression and subsequent economic/political earthquake swept
Hoover and the Republicans away, allowing for the 1932 election to begin a 20 year
Democratic dominance, beginning with Franklin D. Roosevelt!

WARREN HARDING
 Warren Harding was a capable politician and widely popular, especially with women, in that
he had an amiable public image which was in tune with the national mood; his interests
were “golf, drink and other men’s wives”
 His moderate policies and emphasis on a return to ‘normalcy’ was popular, yet his
reputation was tarnished by unescapable rumours about his extra-marital affairs, the
corruption among his inner circle of political partners, and after his death, by the sensational
revelations about the Teapot Dome Scandal
o Despite this, at the time, he was at a great position to win the re-election in 1924
o This is clearly reflective of the Republican dominance which continued throughout
the 1920s

Harding’s policies- how was his presidency a return to the ‘System of ’96’?

 Harding seemed to replicate McKinley and the Republican favourability to big business,
which had formed the victory of the 1896 election
 He perceived a nation which returned to 19 th century with little gov intervention
domestically or in foreign affairs
 ‘Return to normalcy’- return to minimal government with people being dependant on their
own efforts and limited US involvement in foreign affairs

 “less government business, and more government in business” was a famous slogan of his
