Scope and Content Note
The John A. Davenport papers relate mainly to Davenport's career as economist, author, and journalist from 1927 until his
death in 1987. His position as editor at
Barron's weekly and
Fortune provided a fruitful venue for his widely read writings.
The bulk of the collection consists of holographs, typescripts, and printed copies of these writings. They relate mainly to
American and international economic policy, economic planning, the gold standard, labor unions, labor law, Rhodesia, South
Africa, and welfare economics. Included are many speeches on the same topics.
Of significant importance is Davenport's correspondence with prominent economists and politicians, such as Milton Friedman,
Friedrich von Hayek, Jesse Helms, Henry Kissinger, and Karl von Wiegand, which reflects his life-long interest in the economy
and political life of the United States.
The Mont Pèlerin Society, the National Right to Work Committee, and the National Right to Work Legal Defense Committee files
are smaller but equally important parts of the collection. The Mont Pèlerin Society file consists of materials on meetings,
newsletters, and Davenport's speeches and writings as a member of the Society. The National Right to Work Committee and the
National Right to Work Legal Defense Committee files consist of materials relating to the labor question in the United States
and reflect Davenport's contribution to both organizations.
Of special note in the Subject File is material relating to Rhodesia and South Africa. The Rhodesian materials reflect the
economic and political conditions before the advent of Zimbabwe. The South African materials provide an especially interesting
source for the study of economic policy and apartheid.
