Les interventionnistes ne croient pas aux vertus et aux mécanismes auto-équilibrants du marché. Ils considèrent, au contraire, qu'il peut être source d'inégalités qu'il faut corriger par une redistribution des revenus par exemple ou encore par un salaire minimum. Ils prônent ainsi une économie de marché modérée par l'intervention de l'État. 2, record 1, French, - interventionniste
