The system we have works on the assumption that for they're to be prosperity there must be expansion. So we have what is known as the percentage of economic growth. In good times this is often around 4% per year. That means that the amount of product and service carried out in a country is 4% bigger at the end of the year then it was at the beginning. When a country is having a recession it product has become smaller then it was last year. And if the same thing happens in a lot of countries it is called a world recession.
