Abstract

[fre] Dans l'œuvre de Boisguilbert, les vues sur les marchés varient selon le type de lien social qui, en amont, les organise. D'un côté, nous trouvons un premier modèle quasi moderne des marchés, où ceux-ci régulent les rapports symétriques entre métiers, au nombre de deux à l'état d'innocence, et de deux cents à l'état opulent. Toutefois, la question de l'équilibre des marchés ne reçoit qu'une réponse métaphysique, qui éloigne Boisguilbert de Turgot, et a fortiori de Walras. D'un autre côté, se dégage des textes de Boisguilbert un modèle d'inspiration classique, adapté aux rapports asymétriques de l'état opulent. Dans ce second modèle, le marché du blé ordonne, à travers une logique mimétique et collective des comportements, le rapport entre la classe des maîtres (les fermiers) et la classe des ouvriers. [eng] In his works, Boisguilbert develops différents views on markets according to the nature of the social link. On the one hand, our study of Boisguilbert's texts has shown a nearly modern model of markets. In this model, markets regulate the connection between the crafts through a metaphysical equilibrium. On the other hand, we have brought up to date a second model of markets, which is valid to the developed state. Within this classical model, the market for corn regulates, by a collective logic, the connection between the classes which constitute the opulent society.
