7. CONTEMPORARY HISTORY

• Originating in U.S. defense networks,
the Internet spread to international academic
networks, and then to the public in the 1990s,
greatly affecting the global economy, society, and
culture.
• Government policy designed to promote affordable
housing,[206] widespread failures in corporate and
regulatory governance,[207] and historically low
interest rates set by the Federal Reserve[208] led to
the mid-2000s housing bubble, which culminated
with the 2008 financial crisis, the largest economic
contraction in the nation's history since the Great
Depression.
