Title: La bibliografia primaria di Giuseppe Toniolo: 'Un cantiere ancora aperto'
(The primary bibliography of Giuseppe Toniolo: a 'work in progress') 
Abstract: The essay aims to meditate on the bibliographic reconstruction of Giuseppe Toniolo and the actual
content of the Opera omnia (Tipografia Poliglotta Vaticana, 1947-1953) trying to contextualize it. The
research proved that the economist Giuseppe Toniolo does not have, as of yet, a systematic
bibliography. Indeed the monumental Opera omnia, dedicated to him, does not have a bibliography of
the author as well as incomplete and partly unreliable, with falsifications and alterations.
Despite the above, the Opera omnia has played a very important role, being the main source through
which Toniolo’s thought has been known. However, this has lead scholars to identify the whole
production with the Opera, discouraging the reading of the authentic sources and the research for
more works not included in the Opera. It also supported the strumentalization of Toniolo’s thought
in a liberal-democratic and party-oriented way.
