“…2 Having devoted several research papers to the economic and political thought of Pantaleoni, in this essay I focus on one aspect of his contribution that has not hitherto attracted the interest of historians of economic thought, despite the historiographical urgings of authoritative historians of Fascism such as Renzo De Felice. 3 I am referring to the fact that between 1917 and 1924, Pantaleoni is the protagonist of a violent anti-Semitic press campaign, which he makes an organic part of the anti-liberal and anti-socialist controversy he is fomenting in support of the political action of Nationalism and Fascism. The purpose of my essay is therefore twofold: first to recall the salient phases of Pantaleoni's political career development, second to propose an analysis of the author's anti-Semitic texts and their importance in the history of Fascist anti-Semitism.…”

The author reconstructs the anti-Semitic press campaign led by Maffeo Pantaleoni, one of the major Italian economists, between 1915 and 1924. A declared supporter of Nationalism and Fascism, co-editor of the magazine La Vita italiana, the economist moreover promoted the publication of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion in 1921 plus the publication of lists of Jews who had prominent roles in Italy. Pantaleoni's work is particularly important from the idealogical point of view because it supports that of the founder of La Vita italiana, Giovanni Preziosi, who was destined to hold, after the death of his 'master', a primary role in the Fascist culture and policy of anti-Semitism during the Republic of Salo( 1943À1945) which promoted the systematic extermination of Italian Jews.
