Marco Veronese Passarella
Marco Veronese Passarella is an Associate Professor at the Department of Industrial and Information Engineering and Economics at the University of L’Aquila, where he teaches and conducts research in macroeconomics, economic modelling, monetary economics, ecological economics, and the theory of value and distribution. He is also a Senior Visiting Research Fellow in Economics at the University of Leeds, where, from 2021 to 2024, he led and coordinated Work Package 5 of the EU-funded project "A Just Transition to the Circular Economy (JUST2CE)".
His research primarily focuses on macroeconomic models, economic dynamics, monetary economics, international economics, and theories of prices and distribution. In recent years, he has also developed an interest in environmental issues, particularly ecological macroeconomic models – combining input-output and stock-flow approaches – and the transition towards a circular economy. He has published extensively in these fields, with articles appearing in leading peer-reviewed journals such as Energy Economics, Journal of Economic Behavior & Organization, Cambridge Journal of Economics, Journal of Policy Modeling, Structural Change and Economic Dynamics, and Socio-Economic Planning Sciences. He has also contributed chapters to several books.
Trained initially in neoclassical economics, he has since critically reassessed the dominant scarcity-based paradigm and instead advocates for a macro-monetary reproduction approach. His intellectual influences span a broad spectrum of scholars, including David Ricardo, Karl Marx, Rosa Luxemburg, Joan Robinson, Nicholas Kaldor, Michał Kalecki, Piero Sraffa, Hyman Minsky, Richard Goodwin, Paolo Sylos-Labini, Luigi Pasinetti, Wynne Godley, and Augusto Graziani.
