Mario Einaudi was born in 1904 in one of the most influential family in Italy. His father, Luigi Einaudi, was one of Italy's great economic thinkers and became the second President of the Republic of Italy. After graduation from Turin with a dissertation on Edmund Burke, Einaudi spent two years at the London School of Economics, working with William Beveridge and Harold Laski. He worked for the Office of War Information and the Council on Foreign Relations and began to teach future Allied Military Government personnel about European government once a week at Cornell University. Three central tenets to Einaudi's work were: that the study of politics must be embedded in history; that Europe and the United States have much to teach each other about the practice of democratic politics; and that the classics of political theory must inform the study of contemporary democratic states. These themes were best embodied in his 1959 book, The Roosevelt Revolution. More

These addresses were made to the students of Brown University at morning chapel service. They were too brief to allow logical development...and they do not pretend to have any clear connection one with another. Yet, roughly speaking, the first four groups do have some correspondence with the four college years, while the last group is addressed to those who are leaving the college campus and finding their place in the larger world beyond it. The sections are The New Environment, The Widening Horizon, The Deepening Faith, Persistent Problems, and Beyond College Gates. Some of the addresses are titled: Tyranny of Democracy, Two Kinds of Hypocrisy, Lessons Not Found in Books, The Social Message of Religion, Optimist or Pessimist?, The Meaning of Temperance, The Power of Focus, Continuous Education, What is America?, and The Meaning of Change.
