-
A series of domestic programs enacted in the United States between 1933 and 1938 in response to the Great Depression, focusing on relief, recovery, and reform.
— The right rallying call is for a “Green New Deal.” The New Deal was not built on a magic bullet, but on a broad range of programs and industrial projects to revitalize America. Ditto for an energy New Deal.
词源
Deal refers to the distribution of cards in a card game. A new deal results in a new deck, thus a new (supposedly) fair distribution of chances, i.e. figuratively (in the original use) new opportunities in life for everyone.
