A Science for a Nation-State. Italian Trade Legislation and the Global Circulation of Political Economy

Research master thesis | History (research) (MA)
This thesis explores the possibilities for a global intellectual history of nineteenth-century political economy. Using Italian trade legislation of 1878 as a case study, I describe the way in which political economy was used as a necessary science for the Italian state-building process, what were the original meanings attached to political economic ideas and in which way the reforms performed the Italian domestic market in order to connect it to the nineteeth-century global market.
