Abstract

The New Deal refers to a set of sweeping legislative reforms that characterized much of the early stages of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s administration, from 1933 to 1945. In particular it refers to a series of progressive enactments that saw millions of unemployed workers engaged in public works to improve the infrastructure and cultural life of the United States; the institution of trade union rights to organize; and the institution of social welfare (Genoe McLaren, 2011).
