inter lib.org sur Kenneth J. Arrow

L'apport de Kenneth Joseph Arrow, à la pensée libérale et à la théorie de l'organisation, concerne essentiellement son intérêt à la notion de l'apprentissage et de la confiance qu'il introduit dans son article de 1974. Le partage de cette valeur dans une société agit comme un « lubrifiant social » qui a des effets sur la performance. Son travail permet de comprendre également l'évolution des entreprises, non pas vue comme un effet mécanique et subissant des ordres hiérarchiques mais découlant d'un processus naturel et culturel.

Kenneth Arrow appartient au courant dominant de l'école néo-classique avec une défense absolue de l'individualisme méthodologique :

"Il n'est pas vraiment nécessaire pour l'entreprise d'être l'unité fondamentale de l'organisation dans l'invention, il y a beaucoup de raisons de supposer que des talents individuels comptent beaucoup plus que l'entreprise en tant qu'organisation".^[1]

1. ↑ There is really no need for the firm to be the fundamental unit of organization in invention; there is plenty of reason to suppose that individual talents count for a good deal more than the firm as an organization (Kenneth Arrow, 1962, Economic welfare and the allocation of resources for inventions, In: Richard R. Nelson, dir., The Rate and Direction of Inventive Activity: Economic and Social Factors, Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, p624)
