Francesco Forte's book fits into a great tradition of masterful treatises of political economy in which readers are offered both a relatively informal or reader-friendly presentation of standard material, as in textbooks, and profound analyses and thoughts developed in the course of time or for the purpose by the author himself. A particular strength of the analysis is the way it combines a modern perspective on public economics, understood broadly, and continuity with the contributions of past scholars. This is especially important with regard to the Italian tradition, whose reputation owes a lot to its discovery, at an early stage of his thought, by James Buchanan. Forte's intimacy with the work of many of the authors belonging to that tradition allows him to demonstrate in many ways its continuing relevance.
Industry Reviews
'A long professional and personal association with Francesco Forte accustoms one to the extraordinary breadth of his knowledge, understanding and original thinking not only on economic but also legal and political questions. Principles of Public Economics displays all these estimable qualities to the full, adding for good measure a style and content that must attract both student and savant alike.'
