New Deal
policies for economic improvement introduced in 1933 by U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt
New Deal
For The New Deal, see
New Deal (disambiguation). The New Deal was the title
President Franklin D. Roosevelt gave to the series of programs he initiated between 1933 and 1938 with the goal of providing relief, recovery, and reform (3 Rs) to the people and economy of the
United States during the
Great Depression. Dozens of
alphabet agencies (so named because of their acronyms, as with the
SEC), were created as a result of the New Deal. Historians distinguish between the "First New Deal" of 1933, which had something for almost every group, and the "Second New Deal" (1935–36), which introduced class conflict, especially between business and unions. Opponents of the New Deal, complaining of the cost and increase in federal power, stopped its expansion by 1937 and abolished many of its programs by 1943. The
Supreme Court of the United States ruled several programs
unconstitutional (some parts of them were soon replaced, except for the
National Recovery Administration). There are several New Deal programs still in operation; the largest such programs still in existence today are
Social Security and the
Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) - the primary regulator of
publicly traded U.S. firms.
