William Smart (10 April 1853 – 19 March 1915) was a Scottish economist.[1] Initially inspired by Thomas Carlyle and John Ruskin,[2] Smart was a conveyor of the thought of the Austrian School,[3] before being won-over to the neoclassicalism of Alfred Marshall.
Smart, eldest son of Alexander Smart and grandson of Reverend William Smart, was born in Barrhead, Scotland.
