description Piero Sraffa is widely regarded as the greatest Italian economist and one of the greatest economists of all time. And yet, some have argued that Sraffa’s work has not penetrated deeply into the consciousness of the economic profession.

The author demonstrates how Sraffa’s influence has been felt in different fields: not only in economics, but also that of philosophy and politics.   JEL: B24, B31, E11
