Processing Information
Processed by: Bill Erwin, Denise Dolan, and Robb
Hellwig
Completed February 25, 1991
The bulk of Morgenstern's papers came to the
library in their original labeled folders. However, the
order of the folders was so random throughout the cartons
that the structure of his files must have been disarranged.
The series in which the collection is now arranged,
therefore, represent an order imposed by staff.
Morgenstern often filed his correspondence in
mixed chronological and alphabetical groups that sometimes
overlapped in their dating. For example, there are sets of
correspondence for: 1925-1926, A-Z; 1926-1927, A-Z; 1928,
A-Z; and 1928-1939, A-Z. The alphabetical part of this
arrangement assists the location of letters by particular
individuals, especially since numerous signatures, often
the foreign ones, are incomplete or difficult to read. Letters found scattered
about the cartons were placed in a separate group of
chronological correspondence.
Additions processed by: John Bauman
Completed June 13, 2001
The bulk of the materials in the additions had no discernible order. Thus, it
was decided that the structure and series used for the
original collection would be imposed on the additions. In
almost every instance files were constructed and titles
supplied. Some notable exceptions were: the family Teichler
folder in the Information
Series, "Briefe von Oskar" in the Correspondence
Series, the Luigi Einaudi file in the Correspondence
Series, The Theory of Games and
Economic Behavior folders in the Writings and Speeches Series, and the
Merck-Knoppers and Mommsen-Krup files in the
Subject Series.

Collection Overview
The papers of Oskar Morgenstern, who is associated
with the Austrian school of economics, span the years
1866-1992, although the bulk of the materials date from
1917 to 1977. They consist of correspondence, diaries,
subject files, printed material,
audiovisual material,
manuscript and printed writings and their supporting
papers, and biographical and bibliographical information
about his career and publications. The collection
principally concerns Morgenstern's work as an economic
theorist, university professor, author and lecturer, and
consultant to business and government.
The first two decades of Morgenstern's career as
an economist, the 1920s and 1930s, were associated with the
University of Vienna where he was educated and was a
faculty member until his emigration to the United States in
1938. He published major books about economic forecasting
(1928) and the limits of economics (1934) and numerous
other writings in which the subjects of business cycles,
prices, the depression of the 1930s, economic conditions in
Europe and America, currency and exchange, and economic
history and theory are prominent. Information about them is
scattered throughout the Correspondence,
Writings and Speeches, and Subject Files Series. Morgenstern's
interests and correspondents were international, although
principally European and American. A considerable part of
the correspondence and writings during these years, and all
of the diaries, are written in German. English is also
prominent, and other languages also occur.
Morgenstern's output of publications during the
1940s, his first decade at Princeton University, was less
extensive than in the 1930s, but he and John von Neumann
published their classic
Theory of Games and Economic
Behavior in 1944. As Princeton editor Sanford G.
Thatcher wrote in 1987, in sheer intellectual influence, it
probably has stimulated more creative thinking, in a wider
variety of fields of scholarship, than any other single
book Princeton University Press has published. Information
about this book and subsequent international developments
in game theory pervades the Correspondence,
Subject Files, and
Writings and Speeches Series
until Morgenstern's death. The elaboration of game theory
was not only theoretical but also practical, and
Morgenstern's writings and projects illustrate its
applications, especially in U.S. military and foreign
policy during the Cold War.
The Writings and Speeches
Series, including the
diaries, and the
Subject Files Series are
extensive for the 1940s as they are for the later decades
of Morgenstern's career. The Correspondence Series, however, is
extensive only for the 1920s, 1930s, and 1970s. Part of his
correspondence apparently did not survive. However,
Morgenstern routinely placed letters and other material in
his files for subjects and writings, and many letters are
to be found there. There are a number of letters for some
correspondents, but extensive correspondence with an
individual is not characteristic of this collection. A
person's letters may be filed in more than one
chronological group of correspondence.
Morgenstern published prolifically during the
1950s to 1970s. His major books focused on accuracy in
economics (1950), organization (1951), national defense
(1958), international finance and business cycles (1959),
the peaceful uses of underground nuclear explosions (1967),
stock market prices (1970), political, economic, and
military forecasting (1973), and expanding and contracting
economies in various societies (1976). These books and
numerous articles and reviews reveal his interest in
economic theory, international economic problems, and the
application of mathematics and economics to public policy
problems. The Writings and Speeches,
Subject Files, and
Correspondence Series document
many of his publications and such topics as the Cold War,
nuclear issues, military and naval affairs (especially the
U.S. Navy), defense, space, economic analysis, game theory,
the stock market, business cycles, mathematics and
economics, statistical validity, and his work with John von
Neumann, Martin Shubik, Friedrich A. von Hayek, Gottfried
Haberler, Antonio de Viti de Marco, Eveline Burns, Gerald
L. Thompson, N. N. Vorob'ev, and others.
Morgenstern taught at Princeton until his
retirement in 1970 when be began teaching at New York
University, and both schools are represented, particularly
in the Subject Files Series.
These files and the Writings and
Speeches Series document his relationship with
public and private organizations, especially the Office of
Naval Research, the Rand Corporation, various foundations
and scholarly societies, and Mathematica, a consulting firm
that did contract work for government and business.
Morgenstern was co-founder of Mathematicirca
Morgenstern habitually incorporated into his files
pertinent thoughts or information that might be useful for
later consideration. Consequently, the Subject Files and Writings and Speeches Series often
include letters, memoranda, lecture notes, writings by
others, mathematics, printed material, and other Items.
Thus, a file for a topic or publication in 1963 may contain
relevant dated material from other years and decades.
The diaries, 1917-1977, are relatively complete,
but Morgenstern did not write daily or every month. There
are significant gaps: 1918-1920; Feb.-May 1938; March 1946-Jan. 1947; and Sept. 1951-Feb. 1952. Shorter gaps also occur in April-May 1924, Sept. 1925; June-July
1948; and April 1949. The diaries are in the
Writings and Speeches
Series.
Morgenstern's library of printed material was donated to New York
University.

Writings and Speeches Series, 1910-1977 and undated
Morgenstern's publications, lectures, speeches
and reviews focus upon economic theory and national and
international economic problems. The
diaries, written in
German, cover his professional career and are also the
principal source for his personal life. The writings are
arranged into
diaries, large
chronological and alphabetical groups, and a small
miscellaneous group. The chronological writings are mostly
printed material and photocopies. The alphabetical writings
include drafts and final copies, often incomplete, and may
be manuscripts, typescripts, photocopies, or printed
material. The files of alphabetical writings also include
supporting papers. A particular publication may have
material in both the chronological and alphabetical group.
