Comment le "permaentrepreneur" peut-il co-construire le monde de demain ?
Cet entretien présente le modèle de la permaentreprise, qui repose sur trois principes éthiques essentiels : prendre soin des hommes et des femmes, préserver la planète, et se fixer des limites. Sylvain Breuzard, qui a théorisé le modèle, considère que les structures en silos, typiques de la Responsabilité Sociale des Entreprises (RSE), doivent être dépassées au profit d’un agencement collaboratif des parties prenantes. La redistribution équitable des richesses est perçue comme le problème majeur à résoudre dans le monde actuel. Les permaentrepreneurs partagent une authenticité marquée, une ouverture d’esprit et un goût pour l’expérimentation. Ils sont en phase avec le monde de demain
Violence in harm reduction: Exploring the social, political, and emotional conditions of harm reduction work
Harm reduction professionals strive to reduce the health, social, and legal consequences associated with drug use in contexts permeated by violence. Building on fieldwork in Paris and Barcelona, we examine how they make sense of this violence. In Paris, the discussion of violence primarily hinges on the narratives of suffering from people who use drugs and the obstacles posed by the political context. In Barcelona, the narrative emphasizes precariousness and deficiencies in organizational violence management, which intensifies perceptions of violence. Moving beyond polarized understandings of violence, we argue that violence is socially constructed as an inherent aspect of the culture of harm reduction work. This process involves mechanisms of naturalization, delegitimization, and normalization, shaping work experiences and the construction of the professional self. Although violence manifests in similar forms and manifestations across settings, experiences of that violence differ based on how it perpetuates power dynamics and inequalities within the workplace

The Multiverse Across Asset Classes: Design Uncertainty in Asset Allocations
This paper documents the performance sensitivity of asset allocation methods with respect to design choices in the backtests. Endowed with five asset classes, we document the variations in Sharpe ratio of strategies with alternative (i) utility functions, (ii) signal-generating algorithms, (iii) sample periods, (iv) rebalancing frequency and (v) leeway with respect to a given benchmark, i.e, tracking error constraints. Our results show that while risk aversion does not impact risk-adjusted performance much (risk and return vary together), all other options can either significantly boost or deteriorate Sharpe ratios, especially signal source and inception date. Standard machine learning predictions nevertheless appear to deliver superior performance in a large majority of empirical designs
Chinese Multinational Enterprises in a New Reality: Advancing International Business Theory
International audienceThis introduction paper for our special issue on Chinese multinational enterprises (CMNEs) situates the important theme of CMNE growth within the context of rapid technological innovation, intensified geopolitical tensions, and trade wars in the global business environment of the mid-2020s. Using this context as a backdrop, we discuss the growth of CMNEs to derive implications for international business (IB) theory. We review key theoretical perspectives that inform prior research on CMNEs and outline the key challenges confronting CMNEs’ international expansion, as gauged against prior research. We summarize key theoretical insights from the eight papers included in this special issue. We then illustrate how future research can be informed by an explicit consideration of the international sanctions and geopolitical tensions in which CMNEs operate, as well as by the growing technological, linguistic, and ideological distance between China and European and North American countries, which influences CMNEs’ international strategies. We conclude by noting that at this critical juncture in CMNEs’ development, there are substantial opportunities for the IB community to broaden research and challenge existing theories by capturing the latest trends in the international expansion of CMNEs
Paving the way for incumbents' digital transformation. A review and research agenda
Digital transformation is reshaping the competitive landscape by forcing incumbent firms to rethink their strategies, organizational structures, and business models. While a substantial body of literature has explored digital transformation in specific sectors, focusing on various factors and organizational mechanisms, there remains a lack of a comprehensive and cohesive understanding of how incumbent firms actively lead or respond to these transformations. As a result, the concept remains somewhat fragmented and underdeveloped. This review addresses this gap by conducting a systematic review of 68 peer-reviewed articles across five major academic domains: entrepreneurship, general management, innovation, organization studies, and strategy. Our review identifies pathways of leading versus responding to digital transformation as well as the internal and external consequences and antecedents that enable or constrain digital transformation. We also offer a research agenda aimed at deepening our theoretical and managerial understanding of how incumbent firms navigate digital transformation , providing novel directions for future studies
Understanding Gender and Cultural Challenges in Female Technology-Based Entrepreneurship in Russia
International audienceThis study examines female technology-based entrepreneurship in Russia, focusing on motivations and challenges. While tech entrepreneurship offers high growth potential, it also poses greater risks and unique barriers for women. Based on in-depth interviews with Russian female entrepreneurs, the research explores their journeys through gender and cultural lenses. Key motivations include independence, self-fulfillment, and access to networks. However, significant challenges—such as institutional voids, limited support systems, and gender bias—persist. These are intensified by Russia’s post-Soviet context, where lingering patriarchal values intersect with Soviet-era gender policies. Using computer linguistics to analyze interview data, the study reveals how economic, social, and historical factors shape entrepreneurial choices. It offers practical insights for policymakers and promotes inclusive development in transitional economies.Cette étude analyse l’entrepreneuriat féminin technologique en Russie, en examinant les motivations des femmes à lancer des entreprises dans ce secteur et les défis auxquels elles sont confrontées. Bien que porteur de croissance, ce type d’entrepreneuriat comporte des risques accrus et des obstacles spécifiques. À travers des entretiens approfondis avec des entrepreneures russes, la recherche met en évidence des moteurs clés tels que l’indépendance, l’épanouissement personnel et l’accès aux réseaux. Néanmoins, les femmes font face à des vides institutionnels, à un soutien limité et à des biais de genre persistants, aggravés par le contexte post-soviétique. L’analyse linguistique des données révèle l’influence de facteurs économiques, sociaux et historiques sur leurs choix. L’étude propose des pistes concrètes pour renforcer l’inclusion dans les économies en transition

Individual, Collective, or Both ? Payment Mechanisms and Adoption of Sustainable Land-Use Systems
The adoption of sustainable land-use systems (SLUS) remains low among smallholder farmers in Sub-Saharan Africa, mainly due to immediate costs and risks outweighing short-term benefits. This study examines how different payments for environmental services (PES) mechanisms can incentivize SLUS adoption among smallholder farmers in Zimbabwe, assuming a critical mass adoption would enhance environmental services. Using a framed lab-in-the-field experiment with 588 farmers, we modeled SLUS adoption as a threshold public good game and compared three PES mechanisms: individual payments unconditional on reaching an adoption threshold, collective payments conditional on reaching adoption threshold, and a combined approach incorporating both payment types. We also investigated policy framing effects on adoption decisions and explored prosocial and risk preferences' role in decision-making. Results show only the combined payment scheme successfully achieved the SLUS adoption threshold. When the same payment structure was implemented without explicit explanation of the additional payment, contributions dropped to control group levels, highlighting policy framing's crucial role. Social preferences and risk attitudes showed minimal correlation with adoption decisions, although farmers exhibiting other-regarding preferences in the dictator game contributed more to the threshold public good game. These findings advance our understanding of PES design by demonstrating that combining individual and collective payments can overcome coordination challenges in SLUS adoption, while emphasizing clear communication in program implementation
