Le rôle des outils de mesure de la performance environnementale : le cas des audits et indicateurs environnementaux dans dix entreprises françaises c…

2009

International audience; La performance environnementale est un sujet d'actualité pour les chercheurs en sciences de gestion. Depuis la loi NRE, elle constitue l'une des préoccupations majeures des dirigeants d'entreprises. Pour évaluer cette performance, ceux-ci sont de plus en plus nombreux à adopter des outils de gestion préconisés par les normes ISO 14000, tels que les audits et les indicateurs environnementaux. Il convient alors de s'interroger sur le rôle de ces outils dans les entreprises : répondent-ils à de réels besoins organisationnels ? Ou sont-ils utilisés pour promouvoir l'image des entreprises face aux contraintes institutionnelles de plus en plus fortes ? Cet article tente de…

Utilisation des critères non financiers pour évaluer ou piloter la performance : analyse théorique

2005

The determinants which explain the use of non-financial measures in order to evaluate or drive the performance belong to disciplinary (contractual) and knowledge-based approaches. The aim of this paper is to propose a theoretical analysis of these explanations. For the disciplinary view, we realize a typology of the existing literature. We show that others theories explain the choice of non-financial measures too. For the knowledge-based view, we propose a synthesis of the existing literature in which the link between non-financial and theoretical explanations exists. Finally, we explain why the Balanced Scorecard can be associated to the disciplinary view and the Intellectual Capital to th…

Social media users in search of ‘facts’: the Trade Union House fire case

2021

What factors influence users to believe the stories they find in social media, and what role do emotions play for users in concluding that a particular fact is ‘true’? This article examines one aspect of emotionalized communication in social networks in an information war context, namely, how social network users make decisions about the reliability of the information they receive. We employ a qualitative study of a single case – a discussion among Russian-speaking Livejournal.com and Facebook.com users of a tragic incident in Ukraine – the deadly fire that took place in the Odessa Trade Union House on 2 May, 2014. The relevancy of this case consists in how, for all its uniqueness as a trag…

Le renouvellement du contrôle juridictionnel de l’administration au moyen du recours pour excès de pouvoir

2017

The role of the administrative judge (the excess of power) has evolved due to the implementation of the various texts adopted recently as well as the developments in the case-law in recent years. In many areas, its role now goes beyond the mere confrontation of an administrative act with the rule of law. At the heart of the annulment decision is a statement and an assessment of the facts, apart from the interpretation of the law, which were usually separated by the principle of separation between the administration and its judge.Some jurisprudence which has become very classical, as well as others more recent, can be considered as characteristic manifestations of this new tendency of the ju…

La marque ou une mention innovante permet-elle de compenser l'impossibilité de toucher le produit par les consommateurs ?

2015

Packaging or methods of distance selling prevent consumers from touching the products and therefore from evaluating them properly. Thus the aim of this research is to observe whether extrinsic information, such as brand or innovative cue, can compensate this lack of sensory information and so improve the hedonic evaluation. An experiment conducted on 110 subjects with two fabrics shows that consumers evaluate them more positively when they observe them with an extrinsic information than when they observe them without this information, and that this improvement is greater than that obtained when we allow them to assess the fabrics by the touch in addition to the mere sight.

Dividing Responsibility for Care : Tracing the Ethics of Care in Local Care Strategies

2020

This article analyses local care policies through the lens of the feminist ethics of care. The focus is on the normative understandings regarding care that emerge in local care strategy documents and how these understandings relate with the concept of ‘responsibility’. In this article, strategies published by the municipality of Jyväskylä, Finland, between the years 2008 and 2016, are analysed using Trace analysis. The research questions are: How is the division of responsibility regarding care among different actors constructed in the strategies? How do the roles assigned to these different actors accord with the principles of ethics of care? The findings show that the documents emphasise …

Transnational ties: Resource or stressor on Peruvian migrants' well‐being?

2020

This paper explores the role of types and the intensity of transnational ties for migrants' well‐being from a global perspective. Based on a literature review, two competing hypotheses are formulated—transnational resources versus transnational stress—according to which transnational ties have either a positive or a negative effect on migrants' well‐being. Drawing on data from a large‐scale survey of Peruvian migrants worldwide, this paper examines the strength and direction of the relationship between Peruvian migrants' transnational ties and poor well‐being, the latter measured as depression/loneliness as a principal concern. While the multivariate regression results do not support the tr…

To vote or not to vote? Migrant electoral (dis)engagement in an enlarged Europe

External voting by nonresident citizens has become an important feature of contemporary democratic politics. However, compared to the average voter in domestic elections, we still know significantly less about migrants’ motivations to vote or not. Whereas analyses of external voting patterns offer insights into the results of external voting compared to origin populations, there is a lacuna of knowledge about why migran…
