Was the New Deal essentially a conservative attempt to save American capitalism from collapse, a radical change in traditional American anti-government beliefs, or a moderate liberal response to a unique crisis?

That depends on your point of view. The correct answer is that it can be seen as all three.

i learned this last year... the new deal was just franklin roosevelt's solution to stop the great depression which eventually worked.
but the answer to your question... i think it was more a moderate liberal response to a unique crisis as well as a radical change in traditional American anti-government beliefs.

The New Deal was a radical change in America, where the government gained a larger role in its citizens' lives and where an age of reform developed.

It was seen as a radical departure from previous policy. The programs were not conserative but progressive and bordered on socialism and it was in response to a unique economic crisis.
