Texte écrit et traduit pour une revue japonaise ; War has always been present in the history of mankind, but its relations with the economy have always been dangerous. In this context, the economic analysis of disarmament is recent, mainly present since the last quarter of the 20th century, with mixed and often contradictory results. However, many economists have addressed this question directly or indirectly, from Ricardo to Marx, from Veblen to Keynes, from Pareto to Schumpeter. Disarmament has been analysed as a mainly political factor whose macroeconomic consequences must be measured and on the procedures for converting the arms industries, for other economists it is a utopia in the light of imperialism, of the warlike character of the capitalism and economic conflicts still present. The German historical school insists rather on the usefulness of wars just like certain American economic analyses of the military-industrial complex. Arms race models have highlighted the difficulty of disarmament without political mediation. Finally, UN analyses on disarmament for development have highlighted the difficulties inherent in this strategy. ; La guerre a toujours été présente dans l'histoire de l'humanité, mais ses relations avec l'économie ont toujours été dangereuses.

Marxist economics are evaluated from a feminist perspective to uncover their phallocentric bases, & feminist transvaluations of Marxian political economy are suggested. It is argued that Marx's grounding of value in the notion of species-being is phallocentric because it universalizes human existence, tranforming a historically contingent possibility into a gendered, essentialist possibility. A distinction is made between closed (phallocentric) economies & open economies (economies of excess), which challenge the rationality that underlies the modern foundationalist project. The development of the concept of open economies, beginning with Friedrich Nietzsche, is outlined. Open economies incorporate notions of plenitude & scarcity in discussions on the production & allocation of resources, & include energies, values, & meanings as types of resources. 34 References. J.
