The New Deal, introduced by President Franklin D. Roosevelt during the Great Depression, focused on three primary objectives: relief, recovery, and reform. Relief aimed to provide immediate assistance to the unemployed and those in need through various programs. Recovery involved stimulating the economy and encouraging industrial growth, while reform sought to implement changes to prevent future economic crises. This multifaceted approach led to the establishment of numerous agencies and initiatives designed to provide jobs, support agriculture, and regulate the banking system, significantly shaping the role of government in economic affairs.
