Marshall Society

The Marshall Society is the primary economics society at the University of Cambridge. It was established in 1927, and is named after Alfred Marshall, the prominent economist who was Professor of Political Economy at Cambridge from 1885 to 1908 and established the university's economics Tripos in 1903. Notable former members of the society include economists such as John Maynard Keynes, Nicholas Kaldor and Joan Robinson, as well as political figures such as Manmohan Singh. At present, the society organises various events for members, including inviting speakers and regular social events.
