Vilfredo Pareto

economist Italy

Vilfredo Pareto was an Italian economist and sociologist best known for the Pareto principle, also known as the 80/20 rule, which posits that a small percentage of causes often leads to a large percentage of effects. Born in 1848, Pareto's observations on wealth distribution and his later work in sociology laid the groundwork for various theories in economics and management. His insights continue to influence modern thought across multiple disciplines, including business, economics, and social science.
