Radical Reconstruction was the name of one of the phases of reconstruction: the one instigated by a faction that called themselves the Radical Republicans. The Radical Republicans who swept to power in 1866 considered the first phase of Reconstruction (called the Presidential Reconstruction since it was led by Presidents Lincoln and Johnson) too moderate. In 1873 white supremacist soutern Democrats who called themselves Redeemers returned to power and ended Reconstruction.

Why was the Republican plan for the Reconstruction called Radical Reconstruction?

The Republican plan for Reconstruction was called Radical Reconstruction because it implemented aggressive measures to reshape the South after the Civil War, focusing on civil rights and suffrage for freed slaves. It aimed to fundamentally transform Southern society by enforcing the Reconstruction Amendments and establishing military districts to oversee the process. This approach was viewed as radical by many, particularly those who opposed federal intervention and sought to maintain the pre-war social order. The term "radical" reflects the significant changes Republicans sought to achieve in the South's political and social landscape.
