Marshall Society

According to its own account:

The Marshall Society is one of the oldest and most prestigious societies in Cambridge. It was established in 1927 after the name of Sir Alfred Marshall and has since then maintained the tradition of its distinguished founders in promoting discussion in the 'Dismal Science'. Other members have included John Maynard Keynes, Nicholas Kaldor and Joan Robinson.

Our interest lies in bringing together all young fellow economists in Cambridge and furthering their interest in Economics by inviting speakers, organizing seminars and events, and engaging in rigorous discussion on contemporary issues.

The Marshall Society's journal, The Cambridge Economist, is published annually and contains contributions from Cambridge scholars and economists, in addition to articles by current students of the university. Past issues have included interviews with prominent economists such as David Card, John Kay, and Gregory Mankiw.^[1]
