Description
Fifty years after his death, Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal is reconsidered in this book. These essays examine and evaluate New Deal domestic policy in six areas: agriculture; the environment; housing; welfare; the economy; and industry. They argue that in contrast to totalitarian governments abroad, the New Deal demonstrated that the American experiment in government could address a national emergency using democratic means. The experimental dimension of the New Deal is also documented.
