Attilio da Empoli’s significance for economic theory
Abstract
In 1926, at the age of only 22, da Empoli wrote two remarkable, original books, both of which have aroused much interest. Later da Empoli improved and developed their analysis. Other publications followed, such as his lessons in economic science. Others still were in preparation, but his untimely death – at the age of 44 – intervened in 1948. Da Empoli’s contribution to economic science is considered in three sections, starting the first two sections from one of his 1926 books. A third section relates to his later publications and a fourth section contains a global appraisal.
