Lost decade

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The term "the lost decade" is used in several historical contexts:

• The post-war period in Britain from 1945-1955.

• The 1980s in Latin America, as the area experienced a significant economic depression.

• The 1990s in Japan (jap. ushinawareta jūnen 失われた10年), following the collapse of the Japanese asset price bubble.
