Walras avait-il raison de critiquer Dupuit ?

Abstract

On sait l’animosité de Walras envers la notion de surplus de Dupuit. Les raisons en sont peut-être principalement psychologiques ou idéologiques, sans oublier la difficulté de Walras à comprendre d’autres analyses que les siennes. Mais nous voulons ici chercher des raisons plus rationnelles à son animosité ; des raisons plus spécifiquement scientifiques. L’opposition entre un Dupuit utilitariste libéral et un Walras anti-utilitariste et socialiste peut alors justifier, ou du moins éclairer, le rejet du surplus par ce dernier. Deux débats permettent en particulier d’étayer cette impression, celui sur les chemins de fer, bien sûr, mais aussi celui sur les droits de mutation.
