University of St Andrews Liberty Club

Founded in 2001, by Alex Singleton, Dr. Marian Tupy and Conyers Davis it has inherited the mantle of the University of St. Andrews Political Economy Club which was founded by Dr. Madsen Pirie and Dr. Eamonn Butler who later founded the highly influential Adam Smith Institute. The Club exists to promote classical liberalism and all that is associated with that, it is therefore of a libertarian leaning.
