Luigi L. Pasinetti: An Intellectual Biography

Leading Scholar and System Builder of the Cambridge School of Economics

By: Mauro L. Baranzini,Amalia Mirante

Luigi L. Pasinetti (born 1930) is arguably the most influential of the second generation of the Cambridge Keynesian School of Economics, both because of his achievements and his early involvement with the direct pupils of John Maynard Keynes. This comprehensive intellectual biography traces his research from his early groundbreaking contribution in the field of structural economic dynamics to the ‘Pasinetti Theorem’. With scientific outputs spanning more than six decades (1955–2017), Baranzini and Mirante analyse the impact of his research work and roles at Cambridge, the Catholic University of Milan and at the new University of Lugano. Pasinetti’s whole scientific life has been driven by the desire to provide new frameworks to explain the mechanisms of modern economic systems, and this book assesses how far this has been achieved.

A Compendium of Italian Economists at Oxbridge

Contributions to the Evolution of Economic Thinking

By: Mauro Baranzini,Amalia Mirante

This study examines five decades of Italian economists who studied or researched at the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge between the years 1950 and 2000. Providing a detailed list of Italian economists associated with Hicks, Harrod, Bacharach, Flemming, Mirrlees, Sen and other distinguished dons, the authors examine eleven research lines, including the Sraffa and the neo-Ricardian school, the post-Keynesian school and the Stone’s and Goodwin’s schools. Baranzini and Mirante trace the influence of the schools in terms of 1) their fundamental role in the evolution of economic thought; 2) their promotion of four key controversies (on the measurement of technical progress, on capital theory, on income distribution and on the inter-generational transmission of wealth); 3) the counter-flow of Oxbridge scholars to academia in Italy, and 4) the invigoration of a third generation of Italian economists researching or teaching at Oxbridge today. A must-read for all those interested in the way Italian and British research has shaped the study and teaching of economics.

Pombo

By: Inés Katzenstein,Marcelo E. Pacheco,Amalia Sato

Presents the entire arc of Marcelo Pombo, an artist whose works during the 1990s were considered the emblem of an artistic movement that intended to overthrow the gravity of political art and the "airs" of neoconceptualism by means of an idea of beauty dismissed by some critics as banal and merely decorative.
