Scope and Content of Collection

The papers consist primarily of Brossard's writings and research materials, the bulk of which pertain to the history of the Venezuelan oil industry and to modern Venezuelan politics. In addition, the papers contain a considerable quantity of research materials relating to the general history of the international petroleum industry. The research materials are comprised largely of reports, serial issues, and clippings, and are grouped by subject. The papers include some correspondence relating both to Brossard's research and to her career as a professor of political science at a number of American universities.
Emma Brossard derived her knowledge of Venezuela from personal experience -- she spent part of her childhood there -- and from her study of the country's politics and oil industry. She wrote her doctoral dissertation on Rómulo Betancourt, president of Venezuela from 1945 to 1948 and again from 1959 to 1964. Brossard went on to write numerous articles and several monographs on the Venezuelan oil industry. In her last years, Brossard was a fierce critic of former Venezuelan president Hugo Chávez, and the papers contain her articles and research materials on Chávez.
The papers contain extensive documentation on the activities of Petróleos de Venezuela, the country's national oil company, as well as those of its many subsidiaries. These materials include annual reports, financial statements, statistics, and articles from the Venezuelan press. There are also papers from a number of conferences held on the subject of the Venezuelan oil industry. As a whole, the materials trace the history of the Venezuelan oil industry from its beginnings down to the Chávez era.
A significant portion of the papers concern Brossard's teaching career at Louisiana State University, Hillsdale College, and the University of West Florida. These materials include her correspondence with academic officials and students, speeches and addresses made by Brossard, and course materials from classes she taught.
There are some sound and video recordings in the papers, including an audio interview of Rómulo Betancourt conducted by Brossard in 1970 (box 1). The papers also contain the first volume of Emma Brossard's unpublished memoirs (box 40), as well as articles and papers relating to one of Brossard's former teachers, the political philosopher Leo Strauss (boxes 9, 49, and 53).
