Abstract
Fasiani was born in Turin and died in Genoa. Clearly the most important Italian scholar of fiscal theory to emerge in the interwar period (Buchanan 1960, p. 36), he taught public finance in Turin, Sassari, Trieste and, from 1934, in Genoa. His career was rapid and exclusively academic. Despite his untimely death, he left important works on fiscal theory, and also on economic theory, economic policy and the history of economic thought.
