Abstract

In this article, we will try to model the consequences of certain choices of production technology on social relations. We show that there is an asymmetry in certain configurations between consumers and firms. As a result, the economy cannot achieve optimum spontaneously. In the case of repugnant consumption, the return to the optimum requires the abolition of the market.
