Abstract
Le présent article revient sur le dernier ouvrage de Thomas Piketty, Capital et idéologie (2019). Nous commençons par inscrire l'ouvrage dans l'argument développé par l'auteur dans ses précédents ouvrages, avant d'en souligner un certain nombre de limites. Nous questionnons d'abord la manière dont Piketty pense le capitalisme, avant d'en venir à sa théorie de l'idéologie. Enfin, nous tenterons de définir les contours et limites du projet de dépassement du capitalisme de Piketty, c'est-à-dire sa vision d'une société juste, d'un « socialisme participatif », développée au dernier chapitre de l'ouvrage.
