Abstract: The aim of this paper is to consider the influence of Friedman’s methodological position on di Fenizio and Graziani between the fifties and the sixties. Both these authors used Friedman’s empiricist view to promote changes in the Italian economic thought: di Fenizio supported the Keynesian revolution and Graziani tried to overcome the traditional and deductivistic approach to economic problems. The analysis points out two results: on the one hand, the epistemological discussions emerge in periods of theoretical transition, and, on the other hand, it is possible to consider in a different way the significance of Friedman’s instrumentalism.
