In 1958 the Wicksell Lecture Society, in cooperation with the Social Science Institute of Stockholm University, the Stockholm School of Economics, and the Swedish Economic Association inaugurated a series of lectures to honor the memory of Knut Wicksell. Until 1975 lectures were given each year and, after a period of dormancy, were reinaugurated by the Swedish Economic Association, starting with the 1982 series. Focusing on the growing field of Macroeconomic Employment and Inflation Theory, Diamond delivered two lectures in the series: A Formal Search Model and The Uses of Search Theory.
