When you say "issues," I assume you are asking what the
New Deal legislation was trying to accomplish. If so, historians tend to argue that the
New Deal was trying to accomplish three
things.
- Relief. The New Deal was trying to
immediately relieve the economic problems that people faced. This was done, for
example, by providing jobs or even direct "welfare"
payments. - Recovery. The New Deal was trying to get the
economy back to normal. Efforts to do this included things like the AAA and the
NIRA. - Reform. The New Deal was meant to ensure that
future depressions could not happen. This was done through legal reforms (creation of
the SEC and the FDIC) as well as through economic development programs
(TVA).
These were the main goals of the New
Deal.
