Absolutely not! In fact, society turned itself out!
The roaring twenties was one of the liveliest, most colorful decades in American history!
Mass production of things like automobiles, the golden age of radio, jazz, the Harlem Renaissance, Art Deco, Expressionism, eccentric dance trends, Women's Suffrage, Surrealism, pantsuits for women., prohibition and speakeasies. American literature took a definite surge in creativity, Babe Ruth rule the diamond.....
The twenties wasn't called "roaring" without good reason!

i think of you should narrow your subject remember slightly. p.c.. factors of the roaring 1920s and which will make it easier to establish the paper and discover the references. case in point: in case you will talk prohibition, suffrage, the jazz age, financial concerns of the last decade that brought about the super melancholy. as quickly as you place up arise which comprise your skeleton for the paper, the study would be much less puzzling. Edit: you additionally can concentration on something referred to as "the Superficial Prosperity" this replaced right into a significant reason in the back of the super melancholy and must be in comparison to the modern financial difficulty of at present. that's a virtually comparable difficulty, after WWI human beings back from conflict and started out determining to purchase plenty on credit, mortgages and different loans that they won't pay the money on. If no longer something it is going to instruct your instructor which you have prolonged your thinking and are looking validity interior the study of history given which you could make connections to at present's worldwide.

In my opinion society turned inward during the 40-50's. The most uptight period. EVER.

If that means did most of the US ignore the rest of the world, then yes. Gawd, there was booze (illegal but much more available), and there were Fords, and there were girls who wore their skirts up to there. Why should we give a darn what was happening in China or Germany?

I think so. It was probably a way of coping with WW1 ending.
