Piero Sraffa and the future of economics

  • Luigi Lodovico Pasinetti

Research output: Contribution to journalArticle

Abstract

[Autom. eng. transl.] How did Piero Sraffa look to the future of economic theory: first, when he arrived in England in the mid-1920s, and then, after the publication of his extraordinarily compact little book (Production of Commodities by Means of Commodities, 1960)? The Author sifts through Sraffa's published works, and abundant unpublished papers, his acquaintances and personal contacts and vicissitudes. The conclusions he arrives at remain problematical; but do not refrain him from clearly expressing his specific, quite defined, views
