This paper argues that technological factors have not played a central role in the Italian economic development. Not surprisingly, economists and historians have devoted scant attention to this issue. However, the paper has identified thre crucial aspects which have been repeatedly discussed in the literature over the last four decades: the first is the historical Italian economic backwardness; the second is the dualism of its productive structure; the third one relates to the effects of international integration of the Italian economy.

Abstract
This paper argues that technological factors have not played a central role in the Italian economic development. Not surprisingly, economists and historians have devoted scant attention to this issue. However, the paper has identified thre crucial aspects which have been repeatedly discussed in the literature over the last four decades: the first is the historical Italian economic backwardness; the second is the dualism of its productive structure; the third one relates to the effects of international integration of the Italian economy.File in questo prodotto:
