Abstract

[fre] L'article propose une revue d'ensemble des méthodes d'analyse structurale des modèles économiques. Il traite d'abord de l'étude des structures causales (caractérisées par la présence ou l'absence de certaines variables dans chaque relation), mettant en évidence et justifiant les différents types de formes récursives et de séparabilité qui peuvent s'en déduire. L'apport des structures qualitatives est ensuite abordé, qui tient compte du signe des relations d'influence entre les différentes composantes du modèle. En ce sens, les conclusions les plus significatives portent sur les classes de variables liées qualitativement.. Après avoir cerné les limites que rencontre l'analyse de ces deux types de structures, l'article aborde l'étude des structures linéaires par intervalle. Différentes méthodes d'exploration des figures géométriques qui s'en déduisent sont alors proposées, et les résultats obtenus sont interprétés en termes de statique comparative généralisée et d'analyse multicritère. [eng] Towards a structural approach in economics . Manfred Gilli, Gilbert Ritschahd Et Daniel Royer. The article is concerned with a general survey of various structural methods that can be applied to economic models. It first deals with the causal structures (defined by the presence or absence of variables in each relation), emphasizing and justifying the various types of recursive forms and separability properties whisch can be deduced. The scope of qualitative structures is then considered, which take into account the sign of the influence relationships among the various components of the model. In this respect, the most significant conclusions concern the classes of qualitatively linked variables.. After emphasizing the limits encountered in the analysis of these structures, the article takes up the study of linear interval structures. Various methods for exploring the geometric figures that arise from this type of structure are proposed, and the results are interpreted in term of generalized comparative static and multiple criteria analyses.
