The Strange Case of Mr. Manoilescu in Italy

Author

  • Fabrizio Bientinesi

Abstract

This contribution focuses on the reception in Italy, with respect to the international debate, of Mihail Manoilescu?s work, particularly his The Theory of Protection and International Trade. Despite some appreciation, his work was sharply criticized by both mainstream-trained economists and those closer to the regime. The episode offers an interesting example of the biases present in the debate on economic issues in the fascist era.
