Comment pensons-nous a l'argent? Comment l'utilisons-nous? Notre rapport a l'argent est revelateur de notre rationalite et, plus profondement encore, de notre identite personnelle. Il est affecte par un ensemble de biais psychologiques et d'anomalies comportementales. Nous sommes davantage attaches a la valeur nominale de la monnaie qu'a sa valeur reelle. Nous ne depensons pas de la meme maniere le revenu de notre travail et un legs familial. L'argent peut nous faire basculer dans l'addiction ou la compulsion. Pourtant l'argent est l'instrument essentiel de notre inscription normee au sein de la sphere economique. Il rend commensurables les valeurs des biens sur le marche mais tend egalement a uniformiser les valeurs morales et esthetiques. Ce livre interroge les mecanismes qui suscitent, parfois paradoxalement, l'adhesion ou la resistance cognitives et morales des individus a l'institution et aux activites monetaires. Ces dernieres forment les supports de reactions morales spontanees. Certains biens nous paraissent en principe incommensurables a toute evaluation monetaire. Certains salaires sont juges a priori trop hauts ou trop bas. Certaines transactions commerciales sont visceralement considerees comme degradantes. En reflechissant a la place des anomalies comportementales et des intuitions morales dans notre relation a l'argent, nous pouvons tenter de le resituer dans une perspective a long terme qui contribue, a la fois, a en expliquer l'emergence et le succes historiques et a envisager un usage futur plus conforme a notre nature.
