Abstract

Depuis les travaux pionniers de Kenneth Arrow (1951), Anthony (1957) et Mancur Olson (1965), la théorie des « choix rationnels » ou approche économique du politique, fondée sur le paradigme « utilitariste », s'est considérablement développée aux Etats-Unis, gagnant progressivement tous les domaines de la science politique et représentant près de 40 % des articles publiés de 1952 à 1992 dans l'American political science review (Green, Shapiro, 1995, p. 97). Son impérialisme même suscite aujourd'hui une vigoureuse contre-offensive, lancée par Green et Shapiro dans un ouvrage au titre évocateur, Pathologies of rational choice theories (1994). Il n'en va pas de même en France où, en science politique du moins, le débat reste embryonnaire. L'approche économique du politique suscite peu d'articles et ceux que l'on recense dans la Revue francaise de science politique sont le plus souvent le fait d'économistes (Lafay, 1982 ; Rosa, 1976) ou de spécialistes étrangers (Green, Shapiro, 1995 ; Lewis-Beck, 1985 ; Downs, 1961). Introduire à ce type d'approche, faire l'inventaire des principaux travaux existants, discuter leurs apports à la compréhension du politique et principalement du vote, tel est l'objectif des articles ici rassemblés, qui croisent le point de vue du sociologue, de l'économiste et du politiste. [Premier paragraphe]
