To be fair, the world is constantly changing. I don&#x27;t know if that means each recession is special so much as unique.<p>Just looking at the last major recession in the 70s, things did change quite a bit from there. Manufacturing and distribution of goods started to form into the global supply chain we have today, that was certainly a unique development in our world based on changing technologies. It&#x27;s not that much of a stretch to expect similar unique changes to the global economy today due to changing technology and consumer habits.
