Abstract

[fre] La théorie économique italienne de l' entre-deux-guerres. Enquête sur un oubli historiographique. . Les économistes italiens, tant au début du XXe siècle qu'après la seconde guerre mondiale, occupent une place de premier plan dans le domaine de la théorie économique. L'auteur de cet article s'interroge sur les raisons qui ont provoqué l'oubli de la génération active pendant l'entre-deux-guerres. Il apparaît possible de montrer que la communauté des économistes s'organise alors autour de deux ensembles : d'une part, un « bloc orthodoxe » d'inspiration néo-classique et libérale, d'autre part, des pensées hétérodoxes par rapport à celle du bloc orthodoxe. L'étude des relations entre ces deux ensembles fournit une réponse satisfaisante à la problématique de l'« oubli scientifique ». [eng] Italian economic theory during the inter-war-period. . Italian economists, at the beginning of this century of after the Second Mondial War, provide contributions of highest level in theorical economic thought. The author is searching the reasons why the niter-war generation is forgotten. It seems possible to prove that the scientific communauty organises itself about two unities : the first is composed by a « bloc orthodoxe », with neo-classical and liberal inspirations, which extends an Italian tradition, the second is concern by heterodox thoughts by opposition to the « bloc ». The relations between these two unities provides a good explanation to the reasons of this « scientific oblivion ».
