John Maynard Keynes’s emphasis on the need to implement post-crisis economic policies in the right order is highly relevant.

The advisers in FDR’s “brain trust” were reformers, not Keynesians, and had a different view. 

Attributing the Great Depression to excessive corporate power, they thought that the route to recovery lay in institutional change. As a result, so-called Keynesian stimulus was a minor component of the New Deal – emergency treatment pending longer-run cures.
