| Description | The contribution explores how Czechoslovak law responded to the severe economic crisis following the establishment of the state in 1918. It focuses on key legal measures such as the creation of the Ministry for the Supply of the People, the introduction of special "Usury Courts" to combat wartime profiteering known as War Usury, and the use of emergency legislative powers granted by Act No. 337/1920 Coll. The contribution highlights the role of law in stabilizing the economy and protecting citizens during times of hardship, offering insights relevant to both legal history and contemporary legal solutions. |
