Title: Il 'socialismo liberale' di Eugenio Rignano : teoria dei sistemi economici e filosofia sociale 
(The 'liberal socialism' of Eugenio Rignano: theory of economic systems and social philosophy)
Abstract: The use of death duties as a means to reconcile equity (socialism) with efficiency (liberalism) is usually
associated with Eugenio Rignano, a polymath engineer who published prolifically in many fields
(sociology, biology, psychology) and was the founder, with Federico Enriques, of the scientific international
journal «Scientia». The paper examines the economic and social thought of Rignano, by focusing
upon his unique conceptions of property rights in the light of the theory of comparative economic systems
