Alessandro Roncaglia

Lecturas de Economía, 1985, issue 16, 219-236

Abstract: Piero Sraffa (1898-1983) is considered one of the most distinguished economists of all times. 771e solidity of his criticism to Marshall s theory of the firm and to the marginalist concept of capital, as a factor of production, has been acknowledged even by his opponents. In the field of economic thought we cannot omit his interpretation of David Ricardo's work and his reconstruction of the analytical core of the "surplus approach ". In the field of the theory of value the conclusions of Production of Commodities by Means of Commodities constitutes the point of departure of hundreds of works. This paper presents a general view of the life and work of this distinguished Italian economist. Firstly in underlines the influence of Antonio Cramsci, Ludwig Wittgenstein and John Maynard Keynes in the Sraffa's work and is followed by a synthetic exposition of the main aspects of the Sraffian Revolution.
