Radice was an early proponent of econometrics in British economics and a contributor to the journal Econometrica, founded in 1933 by the Norwegian economist Ragnar Frisch, recipient of the first Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences in 1969. Radice’s book Savings in Great Britain 1922-1935 draws heavily on Ragnar Frisch’s book on Confluence Analysis to “attempt to measure the causes of the causes of variations in British savings by a close combination of theoretical and statistical analysis” (from the preface).
