Haberler and Bauer) as early as 1951. [fact]

An examination of Benham and Röpke's contributions reveals the links between a number of scholars and writers in Europe and the United States found within the orbit of the Mont Pèlerin Society, including some of the much later well-known "counter-revolutionaries" (e.g., Haberler and Bauer) as early as 1951. Röpke refers almost exclusively to the work of neoliberals organized in the MPS: Frederic Benham, Peter Bauer, Herbert Frankel, and Henry Hazlitt, as well as John Jewkes and Gaston Leduc. While dismissing with disdain the antiagrarian "mentality" of Manoilesco and a few individuals advancing "socialist propaganda" (Röpke 1953, 85 and 70, respectively), advocates of industrialization and planning strategies mostly remained unnamed. These anonymous writers of international agency and task force reports were reprimanded with evidence presented from the neoliberal pool of individual scholars and practical "experts."
