The alphabet agencies, or New Deal agencies, were the U.S. federal government agencies created as part of the New Deal of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The earliest agencies were created to combat the Great Depression in the United States and were established during Roosevelt's first 100 days in office in 1933. In total, at least 69 offices were created during Roosevelt's terms of office as part of the New Deal. Some alphabet agencies were established by Congress, such as the Tennessee Valley Authority. Others were established through Roosevelt executive orders, such as the Works Progress Administration and the Office of Censorship, or were part of larger programs such as the many that belonged to the Works Progress Administration.

  • Als Alphabet agencies werden in den Vereinigten Staaten Ämter der Bundesregierung bezeichnet, die durch Akronyme aus drei bis fünf Buchstaben abgekürzt werden, zum Beispiel WPA = Works Progress Administration. Im Gefolge der New-Deal-Politik des Präsidenten Franklin D. Roosevelt wurde eine große Zahl solcher Ämter aus der Taufe gehoben. Der entstehende Wirrwarr von Ämterkürzeln wurde spöttisch als alphabet soup (Buchstabensuppe) bezeichnet. (de)

  • «Алфавитные» агентства Нового курса (англ. Alphabet agencies) — множество федеральных правительственных программ и агентств, созданных в США в рамках «Нового курса» президента Франклина Рузвельта. Первые агентства были созданы для борьбы с Великой депрессией — в ходе первых Ста дней пребывания Рузвельта в должности президента, в 1933 году. Резкое появление сразу серии агентств с похожими названиями в стране, не привыкшей к развитой бюрократии, вызвало резкую критику «алфавитного винегрета» со стороны многих современников. (ru)
