Abstract

Une appréhension adéquate du concept d'équilibre en économie implique qu'il soit resitué dans le contexte de l'histoire intellectuelle tant de la physique que de l'économie. Dans cette perspective, la notion d'Equilibre Grénéral, concept-pivôt de la théorie néo-classique, se révèle anachronique, pour des raisons à la fois “internes” et “externes” à l'histoire de la pensée et des méthodes économiques. Les difficultés internes sont examinées à l'aide des catégories d'Invariants, d'Existence, d'Unicité et de Stabilité.
