Goodbye Prof. R. Antinolfi

Prof. Ricciotti Antinolfi

 

Only by chance I have discovered, today,  that on February 1st this year, my Economic Policy professor at the University of Naples disappeared. I can say that my choice of attending his course was one of the best in my entire career; it wasn’t an easy subject, I had to give the exam three times before taking it (I wasn’t satisfied with the grade), but he made it possible for us to learn how to have a critical approach to economic policy and keep our own opinions as independent and free from any kind of external influence.

He was professor at both Siena’s University and Naples’. In 1984 he was host at Harvard University to research on J. K. Galbraith economic thought. He mainly focussed his research on: macroeconomic theories, history of economic thought, theory of property rights and entrepreneurship, Italian economy, development problems in southern Italy. He was an amazing professor and a great man.

Goodbye Professor
