Economic theory and philosophical anthropology: Marx, Gramsci, Sraffa and the study of human nature

Alessandro Le Donne

The European Journal of the History of Economic Thought, 2022, vol. 29, issue 6, 1111-1124

Abstract: In the present paper, we ask whether in the “new” Classical political economy as reproposed by Sraffa there is a satisfying theory of human behaviour and social change. To discuss this issue, we try to show a possible pathway to integrate the analytical part of his work with the historical analysis based on the materialist philosophical anthropology proposed by Marx. We will examine first the joint vision of Garegnani and Andrea Ginzburg to trace a compatibility between Sraffa’s thought and Marx’s thought, then we put forward some hints for a non-deterministic theory through Gramsci’s philosophy of praxis.
