Abstract

Le livre de Thomas Piketty « Le Capital au XXIème siècle » est ambivalent. D'un côté, une lecturethéorique trop simple, fondamentalement a-institutionnelle, retient un taux de croissancedéfinitivement exogène et ignore l'hétérogénéité du capital, faisant de la répartition des revenus et desrichesses une donnée technique sans influence en retour sur la croissance elle-même. D'un autre côté,les faits stylisés rassemblés et les intuitions qui y sont associées incitent réfléchir sur les tenants etaboutissants de la répartition des revenus et des patrimoines pour lui redonner une place centraledans la théorie économique et lui restituer sa dimension sociale.
