Abstract

This paper defines the evolution of the tribe of French-speaking Quebec economists over the last 75 years as an experience marked by three discontinuities: (1) the passage from the era of political economy to the peaceful coexistence of three curiae (HEC, Laval and Montréal) in the post Second World War; (2) the consolidation of these three curiae into two phratries (SCSE and ASDEQ) in hostile coexistence in the 1970s; and (3) the fragmentation of the phratries in issues-related clans in the recent past. It is argued that the reunification of the tribe is a distinct possibility but that progress in this direction might be quite slow. Ce texte présente l’évolution de la tribu des économistes québécois de langue française depuis 75 ans comme une histoire faite de trois grandes discontinuités : (1) le passage de l’économie politique à la coexistence pacifique entre trois curies (HEC, Laval et Montréal) dans l’après Seconde Guerre mondiale; (2) la consolidation des trois curies en deux phratries en coexistence hostile (SCSE et ASDEQ) dans les années soixante-dix et (3) l’éclatement des phratries en clans définis par les issues dans les années récentes. On montre que la réunification de la tribu est possible, mais que les progrès risquent d’être lents.
