Abstract

Alors que les partis politiques sont au coeur de la vie démocratique, ils n’occupent qu’une place marginale dans les modèles d’économie politique. Merlo (2006) fait l’analogie entre la place de la firme en organisation industrielle et celle des partis en économie politique. Political parties represent another fundamental institution of representative democracy, and have long been recognized as key players by the political economy literature (see, e.g., Downs, 1957). However, the question “what is a party?” in political economy is as difficult and elusive as the question “what is a firm?” in industrial organization.
