Umberto Ricci, 1879-1946

Self-educated Italian agricultural economist, who gradually moved towards more theoretical issues relating to the Lausanne School tradition (esp. Pareto).  Ricci succeeded Pantaleoni at the University of Rome in 1924.  A series of articles criticizing Fascist policies led Mussolini do deprive him of his chair at Rome in 1928.  He subsequently took up a position at Cairo, where he stayed until 1940, when Italy entered the war.  He went on to succeed Röpke at Istanbul.  After the war, the Rome chair was restored to him, but he died soon after.
