Scope and Content of Collection

The papers document the career of Benjamin A. Rogge, an American economist who was a professor and dean of Wabash College. Rogge was a board member of the Liberty Fund, where he worked closely with Pierre Goodrich. He also served on the board of trustees for the Foundation for Economic Education and was a member of the Mont Pèlerin Society. Rogge worked with Milton Friedman on Friedman's TV series Free to Choose and invited Friedman to lecture at Wabash College in 1956. The collection contains speeches and writings, correspondence, memoranda, reports, and printed matter related to laissez-faire economics and to economic conditions and higher education in the United States.

In addition to lecturing at Wabash College, Rogge spoke at a variety of conferences, often to groups of non-economists. Rogge was known for his sense of humor, which he demonstrated in his numerous speeches, many of which covered topics such as the free enterprise system and laissez-faire economics. The speaking engagements, conferences, and meetings file documents conferences, seminars, and board meetings that Rogge spoke at, organized, attended, or considered attending. Materials include correspondence, speeches, and conference materials. For a large part of his career, Rogge lectured at the Public Utility Executive Program at the University of Michigan and at the Graduate School of Banking at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Materials from these lectures can be found in this file, as well as documents of groups that Rogge was a member of, including the Mont Pèlerin Society, the Liberty Fund, the Foundation for Economic Education, and the Philadelphia Society.

In addition to speeches found in the speaking engagements file, Rogge's speeches and writings can be found throughout the collection where noted, including in boxes 4, 6, 15-18, 30-36, 45, 67, and 79-81. For a bibliography of Rogge's works and description of his speaking engagements, see box 55.

Rogge was concerned about the ability of capitalism to continue as an economic system, an interest which was influenced by the insights of Joseph Schumpeter (Lee). In 1979, the Liberty Fund published Can Capitalism Survive?, a collection of Rogge's speeches examining economic and individual freedom. For materials concerning this work, see boxes 6, 32, 35, and 81.

In the late 1960s, Rogge gave a talk at Cornell entitled "The Welfare State Against the Negro," which he composed from chapters of a book he was writing about economics and race. Thomas Sowell, a professor at Cornell at the time, was not on campus for Rogge's talk, but he wrote to Rogge asking for a copy of the speech, which prompted discussion about Rogge's work (box 6, folder 17). When Rogge realized he was not going to finish writing the book, he gave the manuscript to Sowell, who credits Rogge with the inspiration for applying economic concepts to racial issues (Riley). Rogge's book chapters concerning economics and race can be found in boxes 35, 67, 72, and 81.

Rogge worked on several films and the TV series Free to Choose (box 5). Boxes 6, 11, 34, 35 and 43 have material on the film series Industrial Revolution, which was sponsored by the Liberty Fund and narrated by Rogge. Material on another film narrated by Rogge, Adam Smith and the Wealth of Nations, can be found in boxes 52 and 53.

Rogge filed much of his correspondence in his alphabetical files. For this correspondence, see the single letter files in the alphabetical file found in boxes 1 through 4 and boxes 44 through 47. The subject files in boxes 25 through 31, which are interspersed with Rogge's writings, were most likely used as research for his speeches and articles. The majority of the alphabetical files and subject files retain their original folder titles.
