Oxford Economics and Oxford Economists
Warren Young, Frederic S. Lee
Palgrave Macmillan
Focusing upon the development of economics at Oxford after the establishment of the PPE and the contributions of Oxford economists during the "years of high theory" and afterwards, this book presents, for the first time, students' recollections of tutorials and lectures, and their tutors and lecturers, along with examination questions and results, among other aspects of teaching at Oxford. In addition, the many contributions of Oxford economists, including the staff of the Institute of Statistics, along with the story of the OIS itself, are dealt with. Unpublished correspondence, memoranda, and papers collected at various archives are cited to show that Oxford's contribution to the development of economics was equal to that of Cambridge. Warren Young is also the author of "Interpreting Mr Keynes" and "Harrod and His Trade Cycle Group". Frederic S. Lee has published articles for "The Journal of Post-Keynesian Economics", "The Journal of Economic Issues", "British Review of Economic Issues", "Australian Economic Papers" and "Oxford Economic Papers".
