Philippe Moati’s main research focuses on the observation and the understanding of the mutations of the current capitalism, from an evolutionist and institutionalist perspective. He published about the methodology of sectorial dynamics studies. He is a specialist of the retail industry. His recent works are focused on the transformation of the mass consumption model and the emergence of a new consumption model centred on the production of useful effects, potentially compatible with the ecological challenges.
