Morgenthau's Office

Morgenthau’s Office, often referring to the Office of Morganthau, was a government agency in the mid-20th century led by Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau Jr. It played a key role during and after World War II, managing post-war economic recovery, overseeing monetary policy, and providing financial advice to support stability and rebuilding in war-affected countries. The office also worked on efforts to prevent future conflicts through economic means, reflecting Morgenthau’s realist approach to international relations and economic policy.
