Penser l’aide à la décision publique autrement. Amartya Sen et le débat sur l’information
No full textNational audienceSen invites to think differently about the help of public decision makingand the evaluation of public policies. Rather than mechanically deriving arecommendation from the aggregation of certain information considered to represent individual utility, he emphasizes why the debate on information is of crucial importance. He highlights the relevance of individual and collective, subjective and objective information, sentiments and scientific assertions, as well as the need to take their limitations seriously. A fair collective decision requires the combination of all this information within a well-ordered public reasoning.Sen nous invite à penser autrement l'aide des décisions publiques et l'évaluation des politiques publiques. Plutôt que de déduire mécaniquement une recommandation à partir de l’agrégation de certaines informations réputées représenter l'utilité des individus, il montre l'importance du débat sur l’information. Il met en évidence la pertinence des informations subjectives et objectives, individuelles et collectives, les sentiments moraux des personnes et les énoncés scientifiques, en même temps que la nécessité de prendre au sérieux leurs limites. Une décision collective juste exige de combiner l’ensemble des informations, individuelles et collectives, subjectives et objectives dans le cadre d’un raisonnement public
Freins et leviers de la mobilisation sociale : l’histoire de la codétermination en France et en Allemagne
No full textInternational audienceCet article propose une étude comparative et historique des facteurs de mobilisation (Davis et Thompson, 1994) autour de la codétermination en France et en Allemagne. L’opportunité politique, les intérêts partagés des acteurs, la présence d’une infrastructure sociale, la dynamique de la mobilisation et la présence d’une institution socle ont permis à la codétermination de s’imposer en Allemagne (Gomez et Wirtz, 2018). Ces ingrédients n’étaient pas présents en France malgré une réflexion originale sur la nature de l’entreprise justifiant la codétermination. Nous contribuons ainsi à la compréhension de l’institutionnalisation d’une idéologie politique et montrons comment deux pays relativement proches politiquement peuvent emprunter des trajectoires différentes
Internal Conflicts and the Moderating Role of Property Rights in Sub-Saharan Africa: Implications for Property Taxation
No full textInternational audienceWe investigate the implications of internal conflicts for property tax revenues and highlight the moderating role of property rights in Sub-Saharan African countries over the period 1996 to 2019. Estimates based on fixed-effects regressions indicate that internal conflicts reduce property tax revenues, and property rights play a moderating role in the influence of internal conflicts on property tax revenues. Specifically, when property rights are clearly defined, the effect of internal conflicts is quantitatively weaker compared to situations where property rights are ambiguous or poorly enforced. Moreover, in addition to the positive impact of protecting property rights on property tax revenues, the estimates also provide evidence of government effectiveness, further reinforcing the interconnected relationship among internal stability, property rights protection and property tax revenues. Finally, among other factors tested, some, such as the level of development, the share of natural resources and the urban population, are also relevant in determining property tax revenues
Looking for resource density in the platform supply network
No full textInternational audienceIn a platform supply network, a platform owner uses a digital platform to link other firms such as suppliers, customers, logistics firms and other service firms for resource combination to manage supply chains in a comprehensive manner. Resources from different providers are combined on the platform to create value for suppliers. The literature on the Service-Dominant Logic (SDL) has implied that resource density (defined as the optimal combination of resources) is key to value co-creation. Resource density is enhanced when the number and variety of resources and/or their combinability at the opportune time and place are boosted. Yet the process by which the platform owner, complementors (independent companies providing complementary services) and suppliers interact to make this happen is still unclear. This research aims to explore how these three kinds of actors interact to build a resource density situation that guarantees satisfactory value creation in a platform supply network. Based on a qualitative study of a Business-to-Business (B2B) e-commerce digital platform, we identify three mechanisms through which these companies achieve resource density. The findings demonstrate how the mechanisms for achieving resource density manifest in the platform supply network context. We reveal that resource density can be achieved at three different levels, and that artificial intelligence and digital platforms play key roles in optimizing resource density.<br /
The QEg : A Generalized Version of QEPro Ability Measure of Emotional Intelligence
No full textInternational audienceThis article describes the development and validation of QEg, a generalized version of an existing performance-based measure of emotional intelligence (QEPro). While QEPro was designed for a population of French managers and leaders, QEg was designed for the French general population of adults. QEg is an extended version of QEPro from which existing items were extracted and revalidated and other items created in the context of the general population and everyday life. QEg is based on QEPro’s three-dimensional EI model and scoring approach. Our study showed that QEg has good psychometric qualities such as high measurement precision, an appropriate level of difficulty and a clear factorial structure that is similar to QEPro.<br/
On Whiteness and in-betweenness: Reflections of highly skilled Brazilian immigrants in France
No full textInternational audienceThis study examines the experiences and positionalities of three highly skilled Brazilian women in France, who underwent a process of being seen as the Other during immigration, a circumstance, as we understood, of Situated Whiteness. Using intimate and introspective data, we discuss how we become the Other and how our experiences involve attachment to previous symbolic capital to feel less foreign, resulting in a state of in-betweenness. The latter encompasses different dimensions of Otherness and oscillations in one’s symbolic capital that balance foreignness and belonging
ChatGPT, AI-generated content, and engineering management
No full textInternational audienceThis study explores the integration of ChatGPT and AI-generated content (AIGC) in engineering management. It assesses the impact of AIGC services on engineering management processes, mapping out the potential development of AIGC in various engineering functions. The study categorizes AIGC services within the domain of engineering management and conceptualizes an AIGC-aided engineering lifecycle. It also identifies key challenges and emerging trends associated with AIGC. The challenges highlighted are ethical considerations, reliability, and robustness in engineering management. The emerging trends are centered on AIGC-aided optimization design, AIGC-aided engineering consulting, and AIGC-aided green engineering initiatives.<br/
Operational policies and performance analysis for overhead robotic compact warehousing systems with bin reshuffling
No full textInternational audienceThis paper studies a novel robotic warehousing system called the overhead robotic compact storage and retrieval system, which can free up the floor space occupation at a low cost. Bins, as basic storage containers, are stacked on top of each other to form a bin stack. Along overhead tracks, bin-picking robots transport bins between storage/retrieval positions and workstations with the aid of track-changing robots. Little research has been done to study operational policies and performance analysis for this new robotic compact warehousing system. We propose a nested queuing network model that considers two transportation resources and performs reinforcement learning using real data to improve the reshuffling efficiency. We find that reinforcement learning based reshuffling policy greatly reduces the reshuffling distance and saves computation time compared to existing policies. We find that the storage policy of stacks affects the optimal width/length ratio regardless of the system height. Interestingly, we obtain the number of robots that can stabilise the system to avoid an explosion of the order queue; two more robots than that number will produce relatively low throughput times. Compared to an AutoStore system, using our system reduces cost by 30% with a slight increase in throughput time.<br/
Technological innovation and the co-production of accounting services in small accounting firms
No full textInternational audience"Purpose: Increasingly, emerging information technologies such as shared software and continuous accounting are offering alternative ways to perform accounting tasks in a supposedly more efficient fashion. Yet, few studies have investigated how they affect the provision of accounting services, especially in the context of small accounting firms, which provide legal and tax services to entrepreneurs and businesses. Drawing on the service perspective, the paper critically examines how technological innovation challenges and reconfigures the co-production of accounting services in these firms.Design/methodology/approach:The paper answers calls issued in prior studies to conduct empirical research on emerging information technologies for accountants. It focuses on the specific context of small accounting firms and draws on interviews with small accounting firms' managers (n = 20).Findings:The study emphasizes five significant challenges that accounting firm managers face when using information technologies to support the provision of their services (ensuring reliability, factoring in their heterogeneous client base, repricing, training clients to use new technologies and promoting advisory services). Information technologies are shown to have a structuring role in the co-production of accounting services, as they lead to reconfigurations of the relationships between accountants and their clients. A range of four configurations is developed to highlight accountants' strategies to maintain collaborative relationships with their clients while integrating new technologies into their work practices.Originality/value:By conceptualizing accounting services as a co-production process, the paper offers new insights into the implications of emerging information technologies for small accounting firms."<br/
Fulfilling the process promise in new venture creation research : The ethnography/accelerator approach
No full textInternational audienceResearch SummaryCollecting fine-grained, longitudinal data to study new venture creation (NVC) is critical but empirically challenging given the partly invisible, collective, and highly discursive nature of NVC. This article offers the ethnography/accelerator approach as one powerful solution to this problem. This approach theorizes the implications raised by the invisible, collective, and highly discursive nature of NVC as challenges of accessibility, multivocality, and reflexivity. It provides a framework articulating these challenges with key ethnographic insights to advance data collection and theory building, before discussing five implications of this approach for NVC research and providing recommendations and points of caution.Managerial SummaryExplaining how to create, organize, and operate a new venture is critical but raises important methodological challenges. Early-stage ventures have no operating history, the stakeholders collaborating with entrepreneurs are geographically dispersed, and entrepreneurs' stories are often examined uncritically. The ethnography/accelerator approach suggests overcoming these challenges by using business accelerators as a research setting to apply ethnographic methods and collect reliable data. It provides guidance for enabling the full-time immersion of the researcher into this setting, allowing the collection of finely-grained data capturing the day-to-day practices and interactions at the heart of new venture creation and the views of the entrepreneurs, mentors, investors, policymakers, and the like playing a pivotal role in this process.<br /
