Le double projet dans la Théorie Générale de Keynes : un commentaire du texte d'Olivier Favereau

摘要

O. Favereau assumes with spirit and brio that Keynes would have deepened and disclosed various elements of his economic theory with such an order and stressing as to accommodate it to the most efficient fighting against orthodoxy at the time, according to his own judgment. This idea attributes the heterogeneity of Keynes's economic theory to an hesitation in his practical thinking, and not to obscurities or confusions of an analytical or epistemological type. On some points considered as decisive by Favereau himself, it seems that this question "strategic hesitation or theoretic confusion" may be rather settled in the second way. The following points are here stressed in turn : the qualification of the unemployment state by the notions of market or non-market equilibrium ; the origin of non-calculable uncertainty : time or money ? ; the existence in Keynes of a theory of wealth allocation, alternative to the orthodox market theory.
