Résumé anglais The opposition within the liberal tradition between a commitment to laissez-faire and a tendency to reshape actual markets along the lines suggested by an idealized market theory may serve to distinguish sharply neo-liberal and neo-classical economics. Four examples (competition policies, welfare analysis, theory of externalities and macroeconomic intervention) may help to illustrate the peculiarities of the neo-liberal scientific research programme which postulates that actual markets can be analyzed fairly well with the help of a market theory. Far from disculping neo- liberalism from the accusation of being a vehicle for ideology, such an acknowledgment of its scientific dimension help to understand how this ideological function may work powerfully.
