    Abstract

    [eng] Modeling bounded rationality in economics. . This paper surveys the economic models of bounded rationality. The different models are arrayed along two dimensions, with one axis opposing perfect rationality to bounded rationality, and the other axis opposing systemic rationality to calculated rationality. Six groups of models are contrasted: satisfying models, cost models, reliability models, automaton models, learning models, and evolutionary models. Whereas the first three groups of models belong to decision theory, the last three ones belong to game theory. The conclusion addresses an important question: the relation between optimization theory and bounded rationality. To answer this question, the distinction between procedural rationality and substantial rationality will be used. [fre] Modélisations de la rationalité limitée : de quels outils dispose-t-on ?. . L'article analyse différents modèles de rationalité limitée proposés en économie. Ces modèles sont ordonnés autour de deux dimensions, l'une opposant la rationalité parfaite à la rationalité limitée, l'autre la rationalité calculée à la rationalité systémique. Six familles de modèles, réparties entre la théorie de la décision et la théorie des jeux, sont distinguées : les modèles de satisfaction, les modèles de coûts, les modèles de fiabilité, les modèles d'automates, les modèles d'apprentissage et les modèles d'évolution. Une dernière question est abordée en conclusion : la nature des liens unissant l'optimisation et la rationalité limitée. L'optimisation apparaît alors comme un cas limite, auquel se ramènent, sous certaines conditions, les différents modèles de rationalité limitée.
