Particularizing Nonhuman Nature in Stakeholder Theory : The Recognition Approach
2022
AbstractStakeholder theory has grown into one of the most frequent approaches to organizational sustainability. Stakeholder research has provided considerable insight on organization–nature relations, and advanced approaches that consider the intrinsic value of nonhuman nature. However, nonhuman nature is typically approached as an ambiguous, unified entity. Taking nonhumans adequately into account requires greater detail for both grounding the status of nonhumans and particularizing nonhuman entities as a set of potential organizational stakeholders with different characteristics, vulnerabilities, and needs. We utilize the philosophical concept of ‘recognition’ to provide a normative under…

Le mensonge comme manœuvre d’acquisition de légitimité organisationnelle : considérations éthiques et processus de réalisation
2019
This research aims to focus the attention on the concept of "legitimation lie" in order to break the silence surrounding it and to shed light on an organizational phenomenon that is not as rare as what we could believe. Specifically, it provides an explanation of how some entrepreneurs succeed in acquiring initial legitimacy for their small and new businesses through lies. The study of the antithetical association of legitimacy and lies led us to focus on two research axes: on the one hand, the ethical considerations attributed to legitimacy lies and on the other hand, the process of their realization.On the theoretical level, our study required a reassessment of classical moral approaches,…
Ethics in military organisations : implementation in the battlefield and lessons for management sciences
2016
This research questions the idea of military ethics. Our work uses an analytical framework combining three different disciplines: Ethics of care, developed in moral philosophy, Stakeholder theory, from business ethics, New institutionalism theory, from management science. This framework is then applied on two different research fields: the first one deals with the study of battles where ethical stakes were particularly high: the battle of Alger, the Iraqi war, the Srebrenica battle.The second one is qualitative interviews with officers coming back from the battlefield: 10 US officers from the Iraqi conflict and 7 French militaries from Afghanistan. These two research fields are completed by…
Social media for universities’ strategic communication: how Nigerian universities use Facebook
2020
A university has many stakeholders with varying interests and commitments. Several studies have examined modes and methods of HEIs communication with stakeholders. To the best of our knowledge, it is not evident in the literature how the engagement between universities and their stakeholders proceeds on the social media platforms particularly from a developing country perspective. This study employed stakeholder theory to give newer understanding to social media marketing as a strategy to reach university stakeholders and utilised an inductive, generic, qualitative approach in a netnography context to achieve the aim of this study. Theoretically, this chapter makes three key contributions. …
Le recours au dialogue avec les parties prenantes dans l'exercice de la responsabilité sociale des entreprises (RSE) : proposition d'une typologie
2021
Since Freeman's work (1984), dialogue with stakeholders has become a central theme in the field of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) (Bonnafous-Boucher & Pesqueux 2006; Brown & Dillard 2015; Brown et al. 2020).This dialogue is strongly encouraged by international standards (ISO 26000, GRI, IIRC, AA1000SES, OCDE Principles), which describe it as a tool to inform the decisions of organizations and to allow stakeholders to make their views heard.While the concept of dialogue is omnipresent in the literature, the use of dialogue as a management device is little questioned and documented in scientific studies. How is the dialogue organized by companies? What are the roles of stakeholders? In…
Incidence of Stakeholders in the corporate social responsibility of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises of Santa Marta
2018
Abstract This article analyses the perception and application of corporate social responsibility (CSR) practices in a sample of 499 micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) in the city of Santa Marta (Colombia) following the theory of Stakeholders. Specifically, the interdependence technique of exploratory factor analysis was used to determine the most influential Stakeholders in the execution of CSR practices. It was found that Stakeholders related to the value chain, the environment and corporate management favour social responsibility actions in local MSMEs. In contrast, community and government have less influence on the development of social responsibility practices in MSMEs. Additi…
Co-determination and Merger Incentives from Transfers of Wealth: Firm Owners vs. Workers
2010
When workers can capture rents from their influence on corporate decisions, mergers can become a device to generate transfers of wealth. This paper examines the merger incentives from these transfers of wealth. It is found that worker influence increases merger profitability, in line with the owners’ incentive to use mergers to reduce the rents captured by workers. In contrast, the workers’ merger incentives are shown to be decreasing in their own degree of influence on the merger decision, in line with the view according to which workers can be used by incumbent managers as a defensive instrument in acquisitions.
