Le renouveau de la théorie des organisations. Lecture critique de trois ouvrages récents

Thierry Granger

Revue Économique, 1997, vol. 48, issue 1, 147-180

Abstract: [eng] Organization theory embraces the theory of markets and the theory of internal organization of firms. Its renewal is permitted by the development of microecono­mics of uncertainty and information (agency and games). We read with a critical attention three recent textbooks and try to establish the methodological approach and some important results in this applied field. In the background, a general incentives theory and a new institutional economics emerge progressively with the firm as a major actor. This theory provides a new ground for the teaching of applied microeconomics. [fre] La théorie des organisations englobe la théorie des marchés et la théorie de l'entreprise. Elle connaît un renouveau permis par le développement de la micro­économie de l'incertain et de l'information (agence et jeux). Au travers de la lec­ture critique de trois manuels récents, nous cherchons à établir les méthodes d'approche et certains résultats importants de cette discipline appliquée. Au fond, se dégage progressivement une théorie générale des incitations et des institutions économiques dans laquelle l'entreprise joue un rôle clé. Cette théorie fournit un nouveau domaine à l'enseignement de la microéconomie appliquée.
