Abstract

L'émergence et l'affirmation, dans les années 1970-80, d'une " nouvelle économie institutionnelle " , branche de l'économie dominante, peut sembler paradoxale. Voilà près de trente ans que prolifère ce mot d' " institution " dans la littérature professionnelle des économistes. Le présent article se veut une contribution à l'éclaircissement de ce problème, qui conduit à une conclusion négative : le traitement de la question institutionnelle que nous propose l'économie orthodoxe est un échec. Cette façon de poser la question des institutions, en effet, n'est que la conséquence, pour l'essentiel, d'une offensive visant à annexer les autres savoirs, tout en tentant de combler les contradictions interne de l'économie dominante. Comme tout empire, l'empire économique tente de masquer et de dépasser ce qui le mine par une extension déraisonnable de ses prétentions. Mais, que ce soit en ses marches ou en son cœur, cet empire a développé tant de difficultés, voire d'apories, qu'il est souhaitable de renouer avec l'idéal de l'économie politique comme une science empirique, riche des autres développements disciplinaires. En ce sens la socio-économie des institutions, comme logique propre d'une économie politique du XXIème siècle, serait une façon de dépasser le néoinstitutionnalisme et ses équivoques. En bref, les questions posées par North pourraient être déplacées avantageusement grâce aux problématiques de Marx, Weber et Polanyi, repensées pour le monde d'après 2008, d'après la première grande crise de ce siècle neuf.
