Having moved to Turin, after the fall of the Kingdom, he became part of that group of southern politicians and economists (Manna, Scialoja, de Cesare, Magliani) supporters of a liberalization aimed at the formation of a large internal market accompanied by a vast public works plan and the strengthening of national cohesion. He holds important positions including that of Inspector General of Finance and Secretary General of the Ministry of Agriculture, Industry and Commerce. Follows: 2) GALLOTTI Giuseppe.

Returning to Naples after the amnesty of 1830, he dedicated himself exclusively to his literary and historical studies. In 1848 he was one of the main exponents of the moderate wing of the constituent assembly. Convicted of conspiracy against the state, he fled back to France from where he returned only in 1859. It was in this period that he dedicated himself to economic studies which culminated in the publication of the present work and in 1861 of the essay "Study on the present conditions of the Neapolitan provinces" .

Giovanni Manna (Naples, 21 January 1813 – Naples, 23 July 1865) was an Italian jurist, economist, politician and academic. He taught Administrative Law at the University of Naples until 1860 when, after the Unification, he carried out a more intense political activity. Together with Pietro Calà Ulloa, Enrico Cenni and Federico Persico, he belonged to the group of Neapolitan "neo-Guelph" intellectuals, i.e. moderate Catholics who aspired to a confederation of pre-unification states under the presidency of the Pope. in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies he was Minister of Finance in 1848 (I government of Carlo Troja) and in 1860 (government of Antonio Spinelli di Scalea). After his failed legation to obtain an agreement with the Piedmontese he retired from active political life. In the Kingdom of Italy he was Minister of Agriculture, Industry and Commerce in the Farini and Minghetti governments I). During this mandate he took part in the debate for the unification of the monetary issuing institutions, which took place in the first decade of unification. As minister, Manna advocated, with modern and advanced theses for the time, the union of all the issuing institutions according to the French model. His activity as a jurist is best known for having written the first book on Administrative Law in Italy with his "The administrative law of the kingdom of the Two Sicilies" published from 1840 to 1847. His phrase is famous: governments pass, administration remains. As an economist he intervened decisively in the Italian academic debate of the mid-19th century regarding the opportunity of adopting the marginalist paradigm in the study of political economy.
