In a paper titled for this century, the phrase “Christian Dior… looks a more attractive proposition than Montagu Burton” is used to illustrate an economic slump caused by shortsightedness in capitalism. That essay was partly inspired by widespread currency debasement during this century’s (-5[1])Kipper (10[2]-5[1])und Wipper period. (10[2])Susan (10[1])Strange portmanteaued (10[1])“failure” (10[1])with a system (10[2])named for an agreement in this century (-5[2])that was based on the teachings of Jean Bodin (10[1]-5[1])(“bo-DAN”). It’s not the (10[1])19th century, but economic stagnation during this century led Eric Hobsbawm (10[2])to coin the term (-5[1])“general (10[1])crisis” (10[1]-5[2])to refer to the majority (10[1])of it. (10[3]-5[2])Demographic upheavals (-5[1])during this century (-5[1])included the (10[1])Khmelnytsky (10[2])(“k’mell-NITS-kee”) Uprising (10[2])and the Polish (10[1]-5[1])Deluge. (10[9]-5[4])For 10 (10[2])points, (10[2])widespread (10[3])economic instability (10[1]-5[2])roiled Europe (10[1])during (-5[1])what century of the Thirty Years’ War? (10[4])■END■ (10[49]0[8])
