Abstract

Description

In 1875 Carlo Alfieri di Sostegno founded the first Italian School of Social and Political Sciences in Florence. In 1888 it took the name “Cesare Alfieri” Institute of Social Sciences. The name of Cesare Alfieri, father of the founder, former President of the Council and Senate in the Kingdom of Sardinia, has remained as a distinctive element even in the subsequent phases of its history: from 1938, when it was incorporated by the University of Florence and transformed into the Faculty of Political Science, until 2013, when the name “Cesare Alfieri” passed to the current School of Political Science. The book reconstructs the history of this institution, for decades the only one active in Italy in the field of political and social sciences: a point of reference for the development of these disciplines.
