Abstract: Abstract Baranzini and Mirante illustrate how the period 1959–76 was certainly the most challenging and creative part of Luigi Pasinetti’s life. He first wins a scholarship and then a research fellowship at Nuffield College, Oxford, and then in 1961 he takes up a fellowship at King’s College, Cambridge. There was fierce competition for his appointment at King’s, but he had the clear backing of Richard Kahn. Before returning to Milan in 1976, Pasinetti rose in the Cambridge Faculty of Economics and Politics to the rank of University Reader, a distinction that he shared with Piero Sraffa in that period. During his staying at Cambridge, Pasinetti stirred three ‘Two-Cambridge Controversies’ with several future Nobel Prize recipients: on productivity measurement, on income distribution and on capital theory.
