Keynesian economics - achieved full employment since the end of World War I, as the neoclassical theory (referred to as 'Classical' by Keynes) suggested that it should have. In the neoclassical theory, departures from full employment were generally seen as short-term aberrations, but during this period mass unemployment had become a persistent phenomenon in several economies across the world. Some neoclassical economists might argue that Britain's implementation of minimum wage laws in 1909 and the artificial monetary effects of Britain's 1919 abandonment of the gold standard led to rising unemployment.
