Abstract

The aim of this paper is to discuss three approaches of the evolution of economic systems. If Marx, Schumpeter and Georgescu-Roegen together criticised the mechanistic character of economic theory to learn about evolution, each proposed a particular analysis : Marx makes class struggle the driving force of evolution while Schumpeter's concern is the factor endogenous to the economic sphere, and the one of Georgescu-Roegen is the relationship between economic activity and the natural environment. beyond their differences, there are some correspondences in their works. They have introduced the irreversibility of time and historical time into the economic analysis.
