About this person
Archibugi was the author of several works in planning theory and methodology, and was among the theorists and promoters of a new unitary discipline of planning - the “Planology” - aimed at creating a bridge between the theoretical scientific progress in economics and other social sciences with the actual political and administrative efficiency and management. After retiring from academia, he was still an active researcher as President of the Planning Studies Centre. He died in Rome in November 2020 at the age of 94.
