Describe the key assumptions and legislation of the First New Deal with the Second New Deal. Explain why historians have seen fit to identify two New Deals.

What will be an ideal response?

ANSWER
First New Deal: Behind the AAA, NIRA, WPA, TVA and other legislation lay the assumption that government, labor, industry, the farmers, and other interest groups could cooperate to solve the depression. President Roosevelt saw himself and the federal government as brokers, balancing these conflicting interest groups and priming the pump of recovery.
Second New Deal: The Wagner and Social Security acts were based on the New Dealers’ assumption that the earlier, more conservative, legislation was failing and a greater commitment to social welfare was required.
