About
Stéphane Lalut — Economist, independent researcher and essayist. Author of the framework of anthropy.
Stéphane Lalut is an economist, independent researcher and essayist. He develops the framework of anthropy — the hypothesis that social systems displace disorder rather than resolve it — through a series of working papers and two published books.
His articles and reviews appear in Alternatives Économiques, La Vie des Idées, En attendant Nadeau, Terrestres, Nonfiction, Le Temps, and Mediapart.
He has worked in European marketing management, public-sector consulting, and international entrepreneurship. This experience at the intersection of private, public, and international domains underpins an approach that combines analytical rigour with close attention to the concrete mechanisms of cost displacement.
