 The Final Phase of Paretology During Pareto’s LifetimeFiorenzo Mornati ()
Chapter Chapter 8 in Vilfredo Pareto: An Intellectual Biography Volume III, 2020, pp 183-197 from Palgrave Macmillan Abstract: Abstract To complete Pareto’s intellectual biography, we may consider it sufficient to provide an overview of Paretology as represented in publications dating to the final period of his life. In this regard it may be stated, paradoxically, that the two works which have most contributed to his lasting fame aroused less interest at the time of their publication than did the Cours d’économie politique. This fact can be explained by the numerous conceptual novelties contained in both the Manual of Political Economy (which also displayed a high level of formal complexity by the standards of the time, even if this was mostly limited to the appendix) and the Treatise on General Sociology (which furthermore was published in the middle of the world war). In the following sections we will summarise what we consider the most interesting among the responses to the Manual (§1), to Socialist systems (§2) and to the Treatise (§3). Keywords: Paretology; Cours d’économie politique; Manual of Political Economy; Guido Sensini; Vito Volterra (search for similar items in EconPapers) There are no downloads for this item, see the EconPapers FAQ for hints about obtaining it.
