Keith Sinjohn Joseph, Baron Joseph, Bt, CH, PC (17 January 1918 – 10 December 1994), known as Sir Keith Joseph, 2nd Baronet, for most of his political life, was a British politician. A member of the Conservative Party, he served as a minister under four prime ministers: Harold Macmillan, Alec Douglas-Home, Edward Heath, and Margaret Thatcher. He was a key influence in the creation of what came to be known as Thatcherism.^[2]

Joseph introduced the concept of the social market economy into Britain, an economic and social system inspired by Christian democracy.^[3] He also co-founded the Centre for Policy Studies writing its first publication: Why Britain needs a Social Market Economy.^[4]
