Jacopo Mazzei, descendant of one of the most illustrious Florentine families, was introduced to higher studies in the economic disciplines by Giuseppe Toniolo. In 1917, Mazzei, who had just returned from captivity, discussed with Toniolo the thesis on The customs reforms of President (Woodrow) Wilson. His thought, thoroughly explained in the volume's fourteen essays, highlights the figure of a scholar of international economics, also seen in his historical perspective and connections. Mazzei, while not neglecting the issues debated in the period between the two world wars ‒ from autarchic premises to theories on economic spaces ‒, remained substantially close to Toniolo's conceptions. In particular, according to this approach, economics in its various forms and ethics cannot be separated and, for this very reason, Mazzei must be counted among the economists closest to the master of the University of Pisa.
