  • William Brian Reddaway 1913–2002
    BRIAN REDDAWAY William Brian Reddaway 1913–2002 I PROFESSOR W. B. R EDDAWAY, invariably known to friends and colleagues as Brian Reddaway, was an exceptional economist who had a huge influ- ence on how economics in Cambridge has been taught and researched. He held leadership positions in the Faculty of Economics and Politics at Cambridge for twenty-five years, between 1955 and 1980. For nearly the first fifteen years he was Director of the Department of Applied Economics (DAE), succeeding Sir Richard Stone, the founding Director. The DAE was established after the Second World War on the initiative of J. M. Keynes. It was set up as the research arm of the Faculty of Economics and Politics, providing facilities for teaching staff to carry out applied economic and social investigations. In 1969, almost at the end of his tenure as DAE Director, Reddaway was elected to succeed James Meade in the Chair of Political Economy, the senior chair in economics in Cambridge. Reddaway held this chair until 1980, when he formally retired. He continued his association with the Faculty for many years after this, doing occasional lecture courses, or one-off lectures: he posi- tively loved lecturing on applied economic subjects and helping younger colleagues with their research. As is the custom in Cambridge’s collegiate university structure, in addi- tion to his successive university posts in the Faculty, which began in 1939 on his appointment as University Lecturer, he held a Fellowship at Clare College for sixty-four years (1938 to 2002). He took a very active part in college life, including college teaching and helping to manage the college’s Proceedings of the British Academy, 138, 285–306.

Four different rankings had given Cambridge the top position. Times Higher Education puts us sixth (incomprehensibly, after Oxford). While all league tables are suspect, we can surely trust the consistency of Cambridge’s position in the world’s top ten. Still more trust can be put in the Tompkins table of Tripos rankings that have placed Trinity top in 2011, since Tripos marks are measurable in a way that ‘quality and satisfaction’ can never be.

  • Inventing Tradition/Coping with Change
    1 Inventing Tradition/Coping with Change: the Women's Colleges in late l9th and early 20th Century Cambridge Joyce Senders Pedersen In l908, Emma List, earlier a student at Girton College, Cambridge, published a volume of verse and essays celebrating the traditions of the college.1 The titular poem "Girton my Friend" recalls the charms of the buildings and the countryside. An essay evokes golden summer days spent with a Girton Reading Party during the Long Vacation. There are poems about "Hall" (where meals were taken), "Tray" (evening cocoa parties in the girls' rooms), "A Fire Alarm," "My Friends," and "The Dons" ("Friends of our past's best memory. / Ye the kind and the wise"). Given these effusions, it comes as something of a surprise that "the kind and the wise" had judged Emma incompetent. She failed the math tripos (honors examination) in l903. Captivated by the traditions of college life, Emma evidently accepted the verdict without rancor. Emma's experience points up a dilemma at the heart of modern university and professional culture: how to secure acceptance of meritocratic norms and values when these conflict with individual self-interest. According to liberal paradigms of history, the realm of tradition (in which legitimacy derives from precedent) should everywhere be in retreat with the advance of rational, calculative out-looks and bureaucratic forms of organization, as part of what Max Weber famously termed the "disenchantment" of the world.2 However, as a much-remarked volume on The Invention of Tradition made clear, new traditions blossomed in many institutional contexts in the l9th and early 20th century.3 These invented traditions lent legitimacy to what were in many cases new communities, new status and power relationships, new values and behavioral norms.

    DISMANTLING THE FOSSIL FUEL UNIVERSITY The Entanglement of the University of Cambridge and the Fossil Fuel Industry 1 This report was authored and edited by current and past members of Cambridge Zero Carbon Society, a student-led climate justice campaign group at the University of Cambridge. Authors Ollie Banks Ewan Hawkins Alejandra Lozano Ahsan Murtaza Memon Nicholas Castel Editors Alice Guillaume Ewan Hawkins Ollie Banks Emma Hei Una Jefferson Becca Hunter Jerry Tam Maria Calinescu Julia Peck Sean Irving 2 FOREWORD SUZANNE DHALIWAL DIRECTOR UK TAR SANDS NETWORK At this time of climate crisis, the web of capital fuelling the ecological and social catastrophes of our time has never been more visible. Once any institution is made aware of the trail of its capital to the corporations that are driving the devastation of our ecosystems and social structures and threatening our democracies at this unprecedented time, it is essential as morally accountable agents that they reevaluate the social license that the institution is providing to the perpetrators of climate chaos and the furthering of global social instability. This report details with clarity and precision how the University of Cambridge can take radical, ambitious and comprehensive action on the climate emergency by cutting ties with BP, Shell, ExxonMobil, Schlumberger, Total and other oil majors who are knowingly pushing our climate towards a five degrees Celsius increase in temperature. As outlined, fossil fuel companies like BP and Shell rely on universities like Cambridge to maintain and bolster their social licence to operate. This licence allows the industry to continue pursuing extractive projects and is produced by disseminating the belief that it is a legitimate and socially conscious industry.
