The Great Depression was a severe worldwide economic depression that took place mostly during the 1930s, beginning in the United States. Between 1929 and 1932, worldwide gross domestic product (GDP) fell by an estimated 15%. By comparison, worldwide GDP fell by less than 1% from 2008 to 2009 during the Great Recession. By 1930, 4 million Americans looking for work could not find it; that number had risen to 6 million in 1931. Meanwhile, the country's industrial production had dropped by half. In 1930, severe droughts in the Southern Plains brought high winds and dust from Texas to Nebraska, killing people, livestock and crops.

Profit-making public sector undertakings are the main source of revenue of the government to be used in special welfare programmes. This enables to promote equality of income and wealth distribution among the public. The PSUs which operate with social motive such as railways, water supply and postal services should be retained in the public sector. However, many PSUs incur losses. These loss-making units should be privatised to protect the financial condition of the government. However, profit-making industries should remain in the public sector only because the resources of these units can be used for developmental activities. The government should retain strategic industries to prevent emergence of any monopoly in the privative sector.

When goods and services included in GDP are valued at current prices, i.e., prices prevailing in the year for which GDP is being measured, it is called nominal GDP. For example, Nominal GDP of 2010 is the value of output produced in 2010 calculated at the market prices prevailing in 2010. In short Nominal GDP values current year's output in an economy at current year prices.

Globalization creates greater opportunities for firms in less industrialized countries to tap into more and larger markets around the world. Thus, businesses located in developing countries have more access to capital flows, technology, human capital, cheaper imports, and larger export markets. India has felt the impact of globalization through increased prosperity, partly triggered by increasing trade volumes, investment, and growth. Scholarly work on trade, FDI, and the environment in India with rich theoretical insight and solid empirical evidence is scarce. The wake of globalization was first felt in the 1990s in India when the then finance minister, Dr Manmohan Singh initiated the economic liberalization plan. Since then, India has gradually become one of the economic giants in the world.

Welfare is the well-being or satisfaction enjoyed by the society which is actually determined to a great extent by the wealth of the nation. Wealth generally hikes up our level of welfare although both of them are two completely different concepts. Wealth refers to certain material and non-material goods having the four essential attributes - Utility, scarcity, transferability and external possession of man.
