The paper aims at shedding light on the contributions by women economists to the evolution of the Italian economic thought in a recent past. It is a first attempt to fill the substantial ignorance about who were women pioneers of economics in Italy and how they contributed to the discipline, identifying the evolution of their visibility and trends in their research fields' specialization in the articles published by Italian economic journals from the 1930s to the 1970s.
