Abstract

L'économie du bien-être ou welfarisme, qui pose que les seules informations pertinentes pour juger les états sociaux sont les utilités individuelles (Sen, 1979), a très longtemps occupé une place hégémonique dans le champ de l'économie normative. Le modèle ELIE de redistribution des revenus (ELIE signifiant Equal-Labour Income Equalization) se présente, de manière à la fois très explicite et récurrente, comme rompant avec cette tradition aujourd'hui encore dominante (Kolm, 2005, 2011b). Ce papier interroge le sens de cette prise de distance avec le welfarisme. Après avoir procédé à un certain nombre de mises au point concernant, d'une part, le modèle ELIE et, d'autre part, le welfarisme, nous discutons les différents aspects de la rupture du modèle ELIE de redistribution des revenus avec le welfarisme.
