Abstract: The objective of this paper is to identify the essential ingredients that allow us to take into account the phenomenon of creativity in economic analysis, understood from two points of view: that of the individual and that of the system. To answer this question, we adopt an approach focused on the history of economic analysis, and, more precisely, we examine the specificity of an approach where creativity occupies a central theoretical place: the Austrian economic tradition. What are the specific elements of this approach that allow the phenomenon of creativity to be taken into account? To refine our answer, we will compare the various currents that coexist within the Austrian economic tradition and in which the place of creativity varies. The conceptual scheme of complexity economics offers, in our opinion, the possibility of redefining in a coherent whole all the elements previously identified. JEL classification: B13, B25, B41, B53.
