Sommario/riassunto

Le gouvernement des hommes use et abuse de « l’argument statistique ». Avec l’émergence d’un État néo-libéral, l’action publique s’appuie de plus en plus sur des indicateurs chiffrés qui fournissent des évaluations de la performance des différentes actions politiques. Des « palmarès » variés connaissent une grande diffusion (souvent sous l’appellation anglo-américaine de benchmarking), en hiérarchisant les lycées, les Universités, et même les nations. Ce passage par la quantification, loin de fournir une image neutralisée des phénomènes, les transforme et les performe. Ce livre propose des études de cas précis, enquêtes sur le budget des familles, commissions du plan, statistiques locales ou comptabilité nationale, analysant la production des statistiques publiques et leur usages par les autorités publiques. Et l’on verra comment la statistique s’est imposée à la fois comme un outil de preuve, dans les sciences empiriques, et comme un outil de gouvernement, selon l’intuition que Foucault avait déjà présentée dès les années 1970 sous le nom de « gouvernementalité ».
