Il saggio ripercorre l’opera di Giorgio Mori, uno dei padri della
storia economica italiana nella seconda metà del XX secolo,
sottolineandone il contributo in ambito scientifico. Cresciuto e
formatosi all’epoca della rinascita democratica del paese, abbracciò
fin da giovane – era nato nel 1927 a Castelfiorentino – l’ideologia
comunista, vestendo i panni dell’intellettuale organico, per il quale
fra impegno culturale e politico non sussistono differenze. Fra i primi
ad insegnare la storia economica contemporanea, Mori ha introdotto in
Italia il tema della rivoluzione industriale, sul quale ha lavorato per
tutta la vita.

The essay deals with the work of Giorgio Mori, one of the fathers of
Italian economic history in the second half of the twentieth century,
to underline his great contribution to the field. Raised and educated
during the democratic rebirth of the country, he embraced, since he was
a young man (he was born in 1927 in Castelfiorentino), the communist
ideology, and behaved as the typical organic intellectual, for whom
there are no differences between cultural and political roles. He was
among the earliest historians in Italy to teach contemporary economic
history and he introduced in the country the topic of the industrial
revolution, on which he worked throughout his life.
