Welcome to the Royal Economic Society
The RES is a learned society and membership organization founded in 1890 to promote economics. We publish two major journals, the Economic Journal and the Econometrics Journal, and organize events including an annual conference. We encourage excellence, diversity and inclusion in all activities. The RES welcomes new members and seeks to represent the interests of economists in all areas of the discipline and all parts of the world. (More)
