Despite the absence of a systematic analysis of economics in Sartre's work, we argue that there can indeed be said to be a Sartrean economics, even if it is one that still awaits development. The status which Sartre accords to the concept of Scarcity allows him to advance the critique of economism begun by Karl Polanyi, who, for his part, had been satisfied simply to challenge the reduction of economics to its formal definition. Scarcity, Sartre teaches us, should not be submitted to the process of instrumental reason, but considered as a fact of human history. Economic analysis, meanwhile, should not be based solely on the theme of man's confrontation with a typically ungrateful Nature, but articulated through the concept of World as elaborated in Sartrean philosophy.
