Full textWith the development of an "immaterial economy", knowledge has become a strategic stake for the organizations. However, most of the concepts and management methods, inherited from the industrial era, are note properly adapted to the questions et knowledge. It appears consequently that :. Knowledge is both the producer and the product of itself, and of the organization ;. Knowledge and organization development are very closely tied to the autonomization processes that emerge from collective interaction
Dujarier, Marie-Anne. "L'idéal au travail, dans l'organisation des services de masse." Paris 7, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004PA070048.
Full textThis thesis describes a phenomenon in the organizations of mass services: the idealization of work as it should be done, and its effects on the activity, the outcomes and the way of coping with that, from a subjective point of view. The research took place in two different sectors: a public geriatric service, and a private restaurants chain, both in Paris, France. They have nothing in common but the organizational issue of mass services, which is to combine adaptation to customer demand with standardization of productive activity. In both sectors, current contradictions -institutional, organizational, technical, ethics-are kept unresolved as work is subject to ideal imperatives that overhang them. It relieves the organization planners from resolving harsh organizational dilemmas, providing them, as well, a moral satisfaction. This is a new social division of organizational activity where the front line has to deal with all the contradictions. The customer is used in the production of mass services to put pressure on the worker's activity and to control it. When ideal becomes a standard in the organization, the individual have to conceal the work as it is made, and to fake the work as it should be. The norm of ideal leads to act "as if" it was possible to get omnipotence from the organizations. The result is a poor systemic control as well as bad conditions for subjective developments at work. The thesis uses an innovative theoretical frame able to think together the subjective, organizational and social aspects of work. Our scientific position is clinical. It aims to develop the interpretation of the professionals, and built the hypothesis together with them
Philippe, Déborah. "Social perceptions and the structuration of markets : Three essays on the impacts of conforming and framing strategies on organizational status, reputation and legitimacy." Jouy-en Josas, HEC, 2009. http://www.theses.fr/2009EHEC0006.
Full textThrough theoretical and empirical analyses, this dissertation explores the mechanisms that drive the evolution of organizations’ position within the social structures of markets. Specifically, it investigates the impacts of two strategic behaviors – conformity and framing – on three social evaluations that significantly influence market actors’ perceptions of organizations and willingness to exchange resources with them – status, reputation, and legitimacy. Although extant literature has been particularly interested in explaining the antecedents of the stability and continuity of social structures, this work focuses on the agentic power of organizations willing to improve their position within these social structures. Through the exploration of corporate environmental communication, this dissertation argues that both conforming and framing strategies may have positive impacts on status, reputation, and legitimacy, but that proof of substantial conformity is often requested before framing strategies can have a significant effect on external social evaluations
Le, Masson Emmanuel. "L'idéologie de l'entreprise et les services publics." Aix-Marseille 3, 1999. http://www.theses.fr/1999AIX32007.
Full textThe purpose of this research is to reveal the reality of social relationships. It aims at going beyond and facing up to managerial statements which build up real "company ideology" promoting a "joint vision" so far as capital and work relationship are concerned. Finally, it appeared indispensable to the understanding of "compagny ideology", to study it, not only in the private sector, but also in areas where it's least expected : public services in general. In order to achieve this, we had to show how, but more importantly, why "company ideology" weaves into public services, in theory and practice. Our hypothesis for that purpose, is to demonstrate that such a phenomen is to be considered in relation with the speading of market logic into all the fields of social activities

Full textThere is phenomena of interpermeability between an organization and its environment in order to understand this dynamics, the strategical analysis allows us to understand the power play which grows between actors in the organization and in the environment and which tends to maintain the organization identity when the environmental turbulence develops itself into uncertainty. The effect of the latter on the organization depends in fact on the interpretation of this turbulence by the different organizational actors. The first part defines the theoritical framework and explains the different research methodologies serving as basic material for the thesis. The second part deals with the environmental dynamics while the third part is concerned with the organizational dynamics: the choice of reactive or proactive strategies are in interaction with the power games inside the organization and outside, with its environment. The fourth part deals with certain reactive strategies, whose importance comes from their role as integrating devices: these are first, organizational design, second, organizational culture and third, technology. The relationship between these is best illustrated by the movement called "industrial democracy", of which one form is the "module", defined as a democratic culture, an open design and a sophisticated technology. Finally the problem of power and of mastering the environmental uncertainty is discussed, as well as the fundamental question of the conditions of the interpermeability between an organization and its environment

Full textThe thesis considers the theory of communicative action of J. Habermas from the standpoint of technical decision-making. This theory permits a critical analysis of the "social determinism of technology" inherited from H. Marcuse; nevertheless, it assumes that the price of the conditional legitimacy of technology is its assignment to a realm of social interaction where understanding through language is useless. Habermas' "linkage of the action's and system's perspectives" suggests a strategical analysis of industrial organizations, where agents and researchers maintain an "objectifying" attitude. However, this double objectivism is strongly disavowed today by industrial sociologists. Our own research focuses on the robotization of the French, German and Brazilian automobile industries. In all these countries the introduction of microelectronic tools gives rise to an increase in the importance of micro decisions; however, this universal tendency towards participation, which depends on communicative instruments, takes on very different forms according to the social cultural aspects of the country. This diversity in decision-making processes can be explained as the result of different "technical cultures". The ensuing conception leads to a revision of Habermas' interpretation of modernity

Full textThis study aims at defining the content of the concept of transition, the concepts related to it, and at demonstrating the relevance of this concept with regard to the study of change in productive organisations. Based on a patterning of the psychological and psycho-sociological aspects of a situation of transition, and on the analysis of three firms, this research proves that; 1- the appearance of transitions develops in two stages: in a first stage, the behaviours of the managing directors create a situation of deconstruction of social links and identities in the working environment. In a second stage, the wage-earners react by building up new social links focused on a collective project of social change, presented in terms of an acknowledgement of identity. 2- Resorting to the concept of transition enables to measure the capacities of a firm to adapt on the social level, and in certain cases to reveal a rationality of the individual and collective action based on the quest for identity and coming under the form of a rupture with the model of social links proposed by the firm
Rambaud, Elsa. "Médecins sans frontières : Sociologie d'une institution critique." Thesis, Paris 1, 2013. http://www.theses.fr/2013PA010350.
Full textMédecins Sans Frontières is the first international medical emergency aid NGO and an organization that has institutionalized critical activity, a phenomenon that this thesis seeks to understand. The most opposite sociologies have studied criticism as an extra-ordinary practice which would be a matter of pure ideas. In contrast with this common frame of analysis, we explore its social rooting. We study the construction of an avant-garde position inside the humanitarian arena. With its center of reflexion, MSF has its own « grammar» (in a metaphoric sense) and its own grammarians. This specificity and its position allow it to play critical blows like the stop of its fund raising for the tsunami at the top of the mobilization (2005). We distinguished three devices underpinning criticism inside the NGO. Amazingly, the first one is a man: Rony Brauman. Understanding the institutionalization of criticism implies studying « Roi René» critical charisma. The second one, instances dedicated to criticism, can be considered as his heritage. The third one is an uncertain division of labor sometimes sustained by power fragmentation technologies. After analyzing the «game of the call to order», we then focus on different adaptations of MSF members to the NGO's critical expectation, examining the cost of criticism and its effects. Critique being inseparable from power, its study sheds light on MSF 's governance and its members ' strong commitment. This sociological normalization of critical practices, between sociology of international relations and collective action, is based on a corpus of interviews and discussions, various archive collections and ethnographical observations

Full textThere is a conception widely used in management: the newtonian conception of reversible time, in which time is perceived in a linear manner. Within such a perspective, the question of organization emergence is not a problem, because the past and the present provide us enough elements for deciding. However, if we adopt a realistic conception of time, i. E. An irreversible conception, then the question of emergence poses a real problem. Reasoning in irreversible time amounts to introducing the indeterminate nature of the future. This research puts forward a theory of the emergence of organizations that incorporates the irreversible nature of time: the gift theory developed by Mauss. This theory presents the emergence of the organization as a gifts process driven by the individual who is actually obliged to commit himself by giving resources to the various protagonists in order to make the organization emerge

Full textThis thesis is presented as a part of a sociological study and particularly focuses on the organizational field in the Iran, This work would analyze the interaction between the organization and individual. On the organizational side, it includes the Centre's objectives, strategies implemented to achieve these objectives, but also the type of authority and its evolution, or the various actors and their powers. It will also touch on different activities which the Centre had initiated, and the image it presented of Iranian society. The body of this research is presented in three parts: 1 -The idea of "dialogue of civilizations". Including the political and social environment and in the second part, we study the idea of the creature of the Centre. 2 -The action of the dialogue; how the principal actors perform, revival or changes instructions. Then, we study the implementation and development of the action of the dialogue. 3 -Interaction of Center and its environment in both internal and external aspects (staff and production). The study of the inner life is through the women employed because of their important roles in the Center. We consider it as the unofficial interaction. The effects of the activity of the Centre in its environment (society) is consider as the official interaction. Ln summary, this work aims to analyze the functioning of the Centre and its role in the society

Vafaï, Kouroche. "Information asymétrique, comportements opportunistes et hiérarchie : essai en économie des organisations." Paris 1, 1995. http://www.theses.fr/1995PA010079.
Full textThe doctoral thesis is composed of four original essays in organization theory. The methodology adopted is the principal-agent approach. The first essay is a critical survey of the agency theory of the firm on the subjects of hierarchy, internal job design and delegation. The second essay exhibits an explanation to the introduction of a third party in a principal- agent setting. We show that the principal prefers a three-level hierarchy with tasks separation to a principal-agent structure when the different tasks of the agency overlap too much. By analyzing the impact of the market structure on the agency's design, we also show that three- level hierarchy is efficient only on oligopolistic markets. The third essay considers the strategic role of labor division in the firm. We show that, when the employees may use the know how acquired through their activity inside the firm to quit their job and go into business for themselves, labor division can be used by the firm to lessen the incentives for such opportunistic behaviors. The fourth essay studies the impact of employees' collusion or side-contracting on the internal labor market of the organization. Our major findings in a two periods multi-level agency model are first that to avoid employees' collusion, the firm uses a mixed promotion scheme. This scheme specifies that the second period top managers are promoted from first period middle managers, the workers remain at their posts and second period middle managers are recruited from outside. Second, side-contracting is more harmful when it takes place at the top of the hierarchy
Cartier, Jean-Baptiste. "Contribution à la théorie de l'architecture organisationnelle : la SAS (Société par Actions Simplifiée) comme structure de filialisation." Dijon, 2004. http://www.theses.fr/2004DIJOE004.
Full textThe Société par Actions Simplifiée (SAS) is a recent form of business organization (1994), which has a very strong contractual dimension and promotes great flexibility in its organization and governance. The theory of organizational architecture (TOA), which stems from the positive theory of agency, is used as basis for the thesis. This theoretical model explains why the SAS form is chosen to incorporate wholly-owned subsidiaries in corporate groups. Under the efficiency principle, this form can be explained by a greater reduction in agency costs than for other form of business organizations. Twenty assumptions were made on the basis of the TOA and the features which explain its superior performance when compared to other forms of business organizations (adaptation, savings in administrative costs, simplification, and decrease in agency costs). An empirical study was conducted, involving 170 general counsels of large corporate groups comprising wholly-owned subsidiaries organized as SASs

Full textThe empirical study of twenty six moroccan exporting firms showed that the most efficient businesses in the sample are those who knew how to adopt their organization to the necessities of the export activity. Those companies adpoted their internationalization strategy to export objectives, taking into consideration, within the framework of their activity, a real term linked growth. They adopted an appropriate organizational structure that may go hand in hand with the startegy of opennes to foreign markets. The senior managers of the said firms knew the importance of human resources in the implementation of their strategy and developed democratic and participative styles of management. Finally, they took advantage from their interaction with environment, by seazing all opportunities necessary for their development

Full textSince a few years, project organizing, traditionally specific of some activities, gains most of the economic sectors. The post-bureaucratic structures a priori allow a larger flexibility, more transversality, and softening control modes, in order to release individuals’ initiative. This study aims precisely to identify control systems used to manage project managers. An abductive method, leaning against an interpretativist approach, reveals that these control modes are not only at least as powerful as in bureaucratic organization, but also more acute and more sophisticated. The method is given rhythm by two series of semi-directive interviews close to industrial product development project managers. Mobilizing a foucaldian theoretical approach, this research shows that these managers are figuring in the centre of a “ Dispositif ” of various and original modalities of control. The “Conduct of one’s self”, for which managers’ professionalization process constitutes a concrete form, helps us to understand how managers succeed in existing, resisting, among multiple tensions. Anchored in a critical perspective, three contributions are emerging from this study: -On a theoretical level: the foucaldian approach suggests a new interpretative framework in management theory, -On an epistemological one: a critical approach incites to think about methodological choices. -Finally, on a managerial level, the question of the adaptation of the HRM with project actors’ management is clearly settled

Full textThe university today can no longer be content with adjusting its missions to current developpements : it has to radically change the way it meets them. While demands from streamlining and rationalizing are still spelled out by political instances, both the spirit behind them and the way they are formulated come from the world of economy. From now on the university must define itself, and account for the quality of its products on the international market of science, as a private company would. The present dissertation shows to what extent this process is indeed part of a capitalist ideology as formalized by Luc Boltanski and Eve Chiapello in "Le Nouvel esprit du capitalisme". As shown all though, paradoxes are central to the world of academe because of the several contradictions and tensions that are as many rifts in university research, for instance that between 'hard' and 'soft' sciences, or between fundamental and apllied research. These paradoxes testify to the complexity which characterizes the university and which somehow constitutes it. In this perspective paradoxes are their own justification in that they make it possible for the university to change without any calling for any sudden break with the past or revolutionary upheaval. The present study also shows how a rationalizing of the university along the lines defined by a capitalist economy leads to the emergence of a new paradoxes and it explores their significance. Its major aim is to understand the grammar of change that is at work in the discourse developed within and on the university. Through the observation of one specific case we see how changes are implemented inside a university, how they are perceived and what kind of response they prompt. It also strives to go beyond local particularities and to bring out those elements that can apply to the university world at large

Full textHow can an organization act? Is it an actor in itself or does it need others to act on its behalf? How is it possible to address these questions without presupposing the organization? I would like to put forward a communicational approach to organizational action. Borrowing from A. J. Greimas’ narratology and from individuation philosophy, I show that the organization – and any ‘social’ being – acts by being attributed actions. Individuation philosophy allows a theory of organizational action derived from the way organizations are constituted. Thus, organizations themselves also play a part in attribution practices, for inasmuch as they exist “more or less and in a certain way”, they call for further actions. Through the imbrication of mandates and of programs of actions, in a logic of appropriation/attribution, the organization can act by always relying on others to do so. There is no need to invoke an essentialist ontology of organization to state that it acts by itself, for there is no opposition between stating that the organization acts and that others act for it. I provide my theoretical discussion with a firm empirical grounding through the study of four different fields. I analyse audio and video recordings from a tenants association, the reform project of a French higher education institution, events from the daily work of a New York skyscraper manager and a meeting between Doctors without border representatives and Congolese health administrators. Given the theoretical nature of my proposal, this variety of empirical data allows me to show the usefulness of those ideas to the study of a large array of situations

Full textThis study falls within the focus of research on pragmatic sociology concerning engagement schemes of action. This thesis sets out to compliment the competence to judge and the actions by person through a strategic action regime modelisation system. This involves examining this regime within the internal economy and its relation with other schemes of engagement which can be considered as a resource to denounce and justify.This inquiry employs different resources which impact the production of different categories of analysis and description. First of all, the study is based on the body of theory in pragmatic sociology and disagreements postulated in sociology. Secondly, a focus on the work of N. Machiavelli, equated with political grammar of strategic action. Followed, by an analysis of two empirical surveys linked to the research themes treated. The first survey concerns the planning related to logistical sub-contracting in the electronical commercial domain. The second survey, analyses the work concerning the representation of an electoral enterprise campaign.The strategic action of regime is a lens to analyze and construct a framework of the actions and situations which are based on the principles of equity of power. The situations consist of power struggles aimed to keep or conserve that which is good. The evaluation of situations such as power relations facilitate the reduction of uncertainty in carrying out actions, in order to classify the situations and proceed to distribution of goods. Virtù refers to the competence of people in strategic actions which facilitate engagement in strategic situation

Full textReferring to constructivist approaches of language, we consider that it may be a vector of reality creation. It is particularly the case for the time dimension. This investigation deals with the conceptions of time that have been expressed for twenty years in the french management control literature. A + conception of time ; has to be understood as an idea associated with the word + time ; by management control specialists. In a first step, we have tried to identify and formulate those ideas, which happen to reduce time to concepts of manageable things. As a result they are particularly able to create a sense of security in comparison with the idea of a destructive time. A second step of our research is focused on implicit conceptions of time met in french management control handbooks. Those conceptions, if not expressed directly in literature, constitute the basis of management control methods. During the exploration phase, we have underlined the essential role of four attitudes recommended by the discipline, which are linked to precise conceptions of time : retrospection, prospective, reaction and proaction. We have tried to articulate those concepts in a single model, using two approaches of time, namely the orientation (to the past or to the future), and the relation to uncertainty. The main part of our investigation consisted in following each of those attitudes and its evolution in management control literature. To achieve this, we have used lexicometry associated with conventional qualitative analysis methods, applied to ten french management control handbooks (issued between 1978 and 1990). This inquiry highlighted the raising up (in the vocabulary as well as in the ideas) of reaction and proaction, which hare the most active attitudes. This result can be interpreted as the change from uncertainty negation to active acceptation. In our conclusions, we try to show how producing time is also producing control, indirectly and often unconsciously

Full textResearches from different social science disciplines have brought to light the transnationalization of politics in southern countries, ie the participation of international actors in areas such as, for example, the organization and observation of elections. Based on these researches, in an approach of historical sociology, this thesis shows how international "experts", under the label of "governance", have managed to impose themselves in the national political spaces to carry out activities considered as pertaining to the internal affairs of states (elections, parliaments, constitutions, etc.). Based on a survey made of the study of archives, observations, and interviews among the three poles that structure this form of transnational public action (UN, World Bank, USAID), we look more specifically at the processes by which these activities led to the production and mobilization of government knowledge. In contrast to an approach that would focus on "democracy promotion", we show that this legal, administrative, economic and political knowledge, all mark different frontiers between "administration" and "politics". Taking an interest in professional and academic struggles as to the uses of this knowledge then makes it possible to show how the same object of transnational public action (for example parliaments) is the subject of different and sometimes quite opposite problematization. During the first period studied, from 1961 to 1989, these activities remain limited and confined to distinct social spaces. But from 1989, the collapse of the Soviet bloc, ending diplomatic competition towards “third world” countries, opens the possibility of carrying out large-scale activities aimed at reforming state institutions and gathers these social spaces. A transnational field of "governance" reforms then emerges between more stabilized transnational social spaces, such as human rights, development, and international economic cooperation. The rapid increase in funding in the 1990s has led this field of reforms to differentiate itself into sectors ("electoral assistance", "parliamentary strengthening", "public financial management", etc.) within which the professionals of the various organizations collaborate, despite different professional and disciplinary habitus that oppose them on the object and form of interventions. These different activities of "governance" are institutionalized internationally and are imposed within national spaces on a fuzzy border between "administration" and "politics". The thesis then shows how it is a logic of professionalization that brings "experts" from different sectors to produce knowledge, norms and models of public action with universal vocation, to reaffirm permanently their authority in the field of reforms as in national spaces. The thesis shows, finally, how this form of public action which consists in sending international "experts" within the States is devalued by the arrival in the years 2010 of activities based on organizations local non-governmental organizations that conduct campaigns for the "transparency" of state institutions

Full textThe work presented in this dissertation is part of the SocLab project which proposes a formalisation of the Sociology of Organised Action (SOA). This formalisation is based on the use of a meta-model of the structure of social organisations, which enables an analytical study of an organisation's attributes as well as the simulation of the behaviours the organisation's actors might potentially adopt. This in turn allows an organisational diagnostic, which, though less rich than in a discursive expression of the SOA, gains in rigour and objectification. According to this approach, an organisation is seen as a system which, as a result of the actors' behaviour towards each other, procures for them a greater or lesser level of action capacity for reaching their own individual goals. Two regulation feedbacks run through this system : the first, which can be defined as functional, where actors adjust their behaviours towards one another so as to obtain a satisfactory level of action capacity ; and the second, which appertains to the endogenous evolution of the organisation, whereby the actors look to modify to their advantage the very structure of said organisation. Use of the meta-model leads to the representationof an organisation's structure as a particular mathematical construct composed of sets, functions and relations. By marshalling diverse mathematical tools, we have studied the influence of an organisation's structure on both of these regulation feedbacks. We can for example, regarding functional regulation, explain why actors behave as they do as well as detect real or potential coalitions ; also it is possible to detect in what ways an actor may attempt to modify the organisation's structure. In a more general sense, the mathematical study of the structure of an organisation will allow us to define a great number of indicators which will then be interpreted, with the help of the concepts of organisational sociology, as properties of the studied organisation

Full textA firm is first of all human organisation. The economy is based on a political society. Just as there is no economy without an organization, there is no organization without a final goal. Society allows man to survive and develop himself through economic activity. This activity is based on deep human needs. But over time, "society" has drifted, and the administration of "things" has come to replace the former government of people. Now, new managerial methods tend to redefine the role of an economically oriented organization. A philosophical vision of society, firms and man can help us to redefine the foundations of human life

Full textIt is a question of launching a comment on how to fill in some deficiencies shortcoming of perception and analysis if intangible capital of the organizations. We will seek to highlight intrisically abstract reality related to the issue of the organizational heritage which being composed of explicitly calculable or measurable countable elements, as well as implicitly detectable elements, not easily measurable however determining in the organizational behavior and in the results. This research stands on the concept of limited rationality which depends on both conscious and unconscious strategic question : we draw up a connection between the limited rationality and the formal or informal behavior, a matter which highlights the concept of latent mechanisms. We have carried out two qualitative studies with two groups of fifteen managers and fifteen employees. That is what enabled us to explore the quantifiable variables or methods. Then, we undertook two other studies through a survey taking two samples. The first one is made of 100 managers in Lebanese organizations, the second being composed of 300 employees in the same organizations. After having qualified and quantified the methods of the informal, we sought to bring closer the informal of the lobbying or influence management. Thus, we proceeded throught a journalistic style approach with several ministers, senior officials and trade unionists in order to locate the means of influence management. We have therefore focused our attention on the newest two modern Lebanese companies, which became the symbol of the hidden interaction between strategic management and political interferences. Thereafter, we extended this preliminary approach to a sample of 120 managers representing the lebanese organizational fabric, both private and public ones. The objective of this sixth study was settled to locate the influence methods and tools in the lebanese managerial environment, in addition to the lobbying mechanisms

Full textThis dissertation consists of a series of three papers questioning the influence of contractual governance in situations of inter-organizational opportunism. Our empirical analysis focused on a dataset consisting of detailed information on 102 disputes arising in vertical relationships and involving 178 European firms. First, we distinguish the controlling and coordinating functions of contracts to analyze the ability of contractual governance to limit enforcement costs. Our findings show that both contractual control and contractual coordination reduce enforcement costs. In addition, we highlight a moderating effect of the type of opportunism (ex ante vs. Ex post) on the contractual governance-enforcement costs relationship. Second, integrating insights from previous research in law and economics regarding the fixed costs of court ordering with Transaction Cost Theory’s emphasis on the limits to court ordering for complex transactions, we predict and find support for a U-shaped relationship between contractual complexity and the probability of private settlement. Third, we investigate the ability of governance dimensions to resolve inter-firm disputes. Drawing upon the concept of framing, we show that the interplay between the effects of contractual and relational governance structures on dispute resolution is moderated by the way firms make sense of the dispute. We find that effects of structural governance are contingent on the frame of the dispute

Full textWhat do historical representations recall in an applied communication perspective to the life of an organization or an institution, from the point of view of the contents of these representations but also from the point of view of how they are organized? We will look at both the diversity of the representations from the past, and the work of their staging, the valorisation of an organization and we are looking to determine if they are legitimate, and how they determine or not a requisite for truth and fidelity. In the first section we will consider the links between the past and communication by examining more particularly the forms of recourse to the past and the communicational scope. We also propose an analysis of the contents of the magazine “L’Expression d’Entreprise” over ten years, concentrating on the aspects relating to the history of companies, this allows us to envision these forms of memory “in practice”. In the second section entitled “the past orchestrated”, we are interested in the activity of agencies and museum terms, for which we propose a characterization. We insist notably on museum visits, accompanied with questionnaires by interviews, in order to collect out stated intentions. Are we looking at an artificial collective memory or an established communication activity ?

Full textThe object of my thesis is to clarify what the human metaphor can bring to the understanding of the organizational phenomenon and to show in what instrumental manner the cognitive metaphor of man can effectively account for management situations as part of general organizational audits in order to achieve a “perfect” analysis. This demonstration requires that we link the organizational and cognitive fields in a new way around the central concept of the human metaphor. This is our theoretical project. In the first part we see to what extent the metaphor helps the detachment process and how it manages to carry out highly complex human tasks at a human level. The first part demonstrates (1) the unavoidable fact to use anthropometaphoric representations of the organization (2) that metaphorization in the human model needs to be perceived as a natural human activity thanks to which complex information is gathered in a significant and creative way. There is therefore a real connection between human pattern and organizational models that allow the anthropological and anthropocentered approach. In the second part we introduce the cognitive theories of the mental space and conceptual integration. The project consists in integrating the mental space of the organization which is composed of different mental and logical states and present in a single integrated space, a blend according to Fauconnier and Turner (2003). This is our practical project. In the third part, 4 case studies are dealt with through Qualitative Secondary Analysis method, using the methodology of mental spaces. 13 out of 15 vital identified relations are compressed into a metaphoric personality out of which emerges the management situation in a conceptual unified whole. These case studies highlight the epistemological and methodological principles of a new cognitive analytical approach and demonstrate its value, thus opening a new field of research

Full textThis thesis deals with organizational learning, and more specifically with learning organizations. I mobilize the concept of organizational identity and focuses on a specific mode of organizing: intra-organizational communities of practice. First, I develop a model conceptualizing organizational identity as a system composed of five interacting facets. Second, I articulate a renewed definition of communities of practice as collective answers to prescription failures. A quantitative study of four communities of practice allows the establishment of a link between membership into a community and individuals' preference for certain sources of knowledge. This result confirms that communities of practice are more than a mere linguistic formula and are a distinct psycho-sociological reality. In a third phase, a comparative study is used to reveal the factors which contribute to this specific form of social network that can be defined as an “organizational mousse”

Full textThis dissertation is about a number of "firm theories" and the epistemological question called "trascendental arguments". In part I, the transcendental argument (TA) is defined as the necessary congruence of scientific discourse's contents and of its pretension to truth. This epistemic argument allows to demonstrate that epistemological approaches of economics either root economic laws in nature with no way to prove this hypothesis, or else support an absolute form of "relativism. In a similar way, the many approaches of the agents'rationality are here demonstrated to be aporetic. Part II shows, despite a number of authors' effort to deal with the questions of the firm's very existence, that Friedman's "as. . . If" hypothesis, the ultimate formulation of the standard firm theory, leads to a foundationless and normative economics. Part III uses the TA to analyza the question of agents' beliefs in the theories of the firm and "shared beliefs"
