Sir Roger Owen Douglas (born 5 December 1937) is a New Zealand politician who served as a minister in two Labour governments. He is best known for his prominent role in the radical economic restructuring of the 1980s, when the Fourth Labour Government's economic policy became known as Rogernomics. In 1993, Douglas and Derek Quigley founded the Association of Consumers and Taxpayers (the forerunner of the ACT New Zealand Party). He served as a Labour Member of Parliament from 1969 to 1990 and returned to Parliament as an ACT backbencher in 2008 before retiring in 2011.
