Les fictions comme moteur du capitalisme

Jens Beckert

Regards croisés sur l'économie, 2021, vol. n° 29, issue 2, 190-199

Abstract: Capitalism is characterized by its orientation towards the future. Economic agents act on ?fictional expectations? in order to cope with uncertainty. When expectations fail to convince, crisis may occur. Therefore, controlling these fictions is a key political issue.
