Abstract

L’Empire de la valeur propose une critique de la théorie de l’utilité de l’approche walrassienne et lui substitue l’hypothèse alternative du désir mimétique. Cette critique est examinée en trois temps. On discute tout d’abord l’identification et l’interprétation que propose Orléan des hypothèses walrassiennes : objectivité et convexité des préférences d’une part ; souveraineté du consommateur d’autre part. On évalue ensuite la portée des conséquences de l’hypothèse mimétique sur les propriétés de l’équilibre concurrentiel, en termes d’optimalité et de stabilité. On reformule enfin sa critique moins en termes d’hypothèses ou de résultats que de questionnements, relatifs d’une part à la frustration des agents marchands, d’autre part à la pacification du monde social qui en résulte.
