Abstract

In recent years, the French economy has suffered a number of shocks that have impacted household consumption, including the health crisis, the invasion of Ukraine and the ensuing energy crisis. These shocks have led to sharp but uneven price increases, with differing effects across different consumption items. For certain items, there has been a clear divergence between value and volume trends, revealing substitution effects within household consumption, from goods to services, as a result of the lower increase in service prices. Sur les dernières années, l’économie française a subi plusieurs chocs qui ont affecté la consommation des ménages, tels que la crise sanitaire, ou l’invasion de l’Ukraine et la crise énergétique qui a suivi. Ces chocs ont débouché sur de fortes mais inégales hausses de prix, qui ont eu des effets différenciés selon les postes de la consommation. Pour certains d’entre eux, on observe une nette divergence d’évolutions entre valeur et volume, révélant notamment des effets de substitution au sein de la consommation des ménages, des biens vers les services, du fait de la hausse moins forte du prix de ces derniers.
