May I suggest that she considers studying economics in a department of Political Economy – I would propose King’s College London because it is warm and friendly and the student economics society is amazingly exciting – but I am not unbiased!

For intellectual congeniality, one might consider Univ. Manchester, where the staff and students are reputed to be strongly anti-austerity. Of course there will be many other good institutions for her, not just in “high-REF” institutions or in the “Golden triangle”.

And, of course, “congeniality” has many dimensions, many of which the student herself may have views on.

I have had an enquiry from a Japanese colleague (a sociologist) whose daughter wishes to study economics in the UK. Can any list members suggest where the daughter might study in an intellectual environment that Radstats members would find congenial? If you prefer to reply off-list please do so.
