Abstract

[fre] Les représentations habituelles clés comportements d'emploi et d'investissement dépendent étroitement de la spécification retenue pour le modèle de production. Ainsi, l'effet attribué aux variations du coût relatif travail-capital sur la technique de production découle des hypothèses de subtilité, ex ante et ex post, des facteurs.. Cet article montre que la prise en compte des degrés d'utilisation du capital et clé travail amène à trouver de fortes similitudes entre les représentations des demandes de facteurs issus des différents modèles de production. On montre en effet que cette prise en compte dans un modèle de production clay-clay débouche sur une relation directe entre la représentation de la substitution du capital au travail et les modifications du coût relatif clés facteurs. [eng] Factors utilisation levels and capital labour demands. Gilbert Cette. Usual representations of labour and capital demands depend strongly on the specification of the production function. Thus the effect of the variations in the relative prices coefficient on the production technique derives from ex-ante and ex-post factors substituability hypothesises.. This paper showes that the integration of capital and labour utilisation levels lead us to strong similarities between factors demand representations obtained from different production models. We show that ihls integration in a clay-clay production model opens to direct relation between capital and labour substitution formalization and factors relative prices modifications.
