Abstract

[eng] The "convention theory" agrees with the idea that the market mechanisms are not sufficient for explaining economic coordination and states the assumption that actors use conventional indicators for defining goods quality. These indicators lay as basis of several coordination models which make the market to work. These models have to be analysed, as well as the transition process from one model to another and the role of the institutions in this process. The aim of this article is to deal with such questions by making a case analysis in the field of the organic farming, which seems to be highly exemplary. [fre] L'approche conventionnaliste adhère à l'idée que les mécanismes du marché sont insuffisants pour rendre compte de la coordination économique et pose entre autres l'hypothèse de l'existence de repères dits conventionnels par lesquels les acteurs définissent la qualité des produits. Ces repères, qui sont à la base de plusieurs modes de coordination, sont des conditions qui permettent au marché de fonctionner. L'hypothèse que la "qualité" soit définie de manière endogène et relève de processus de construction différenciés, conduit à analyser les différents régimes de coordination liés à la qualité, le passage éventuel d'un régime à l'autre et le rôle des institutions de certification dans ces évolutions. L'objet de cet article est de mener cette analyse, en prenant pour champ d'application le secteur de ce qu'il est convenu d'appeller l'agriculture biologique.
