Un bref historique de l'économie expérimentale

Buda, Rodolphe (2000): Un bref historique de l'économie expérimentale.

Abstract

Ce papier tente de faire un rapide historique de l'économie expérimentale depuis son origine apparente en 1948, son origine scientifique dans les années soixante notamment avec l'oeuvre de V.L.Smith jusqu'à la fin des années 90. Il présente le protocole expérimental défini par V.L.Smith et montre les liens qui ont très vite été noués entre l'économie expérimentale, la théorie des jeux et la psychologie.

A noter que ce papier a été rédigé avant l'attribution en 2002 du Prix Nobel d'économie à D.Kahneman et V L.Smith.
