Abstract

(VF)L’œuvre du philosophe Michel Foucault a influencé la recherche en sciences de gestion à partir de travaux dans le domaine du contrôle. La recherche sur la disciplinarisation dans l’entreprise, première forme de l’influence de Foucault sur les sciences de gestion, est aujourd’hui prolongée par des travaux sur la gouvernementalité. Ces thèmes de recherche correspondent à deux approches de l’entreprise : l’entreprise comme lieu où l’on contrôle les comportements et l’entreprise comme forme spécifique de gouvernement des individus.(VA)The philosopher Michel Foucault has influenced research in management mainly in the field of accounting and management control. However, the theme of discipline which has so far received most attention is not the only aspect of foucaldian research. Governmentality is another approach which focuses on the relation between the firm and its societal and political environment.
