Abstract

Cet article interroge la nature de la « Responsabilité sociale de l’entreprise » (RSE) dont il s’agit de cerner la portée dans le contexte de globalisation et financiarisation des chaînes de valeur. La RSE est ici appréhendée par le biais de deux dispositifs managériaux distincts - les alertes éthiques et les codes de conduite - respectivement situés aux deux extrémités des chaînes globales de valeur où ils ont pour finalité d’enrayer des pratiques déviantes en matière de gestion des comptes dans un cas, et de conditions de travail dans l’autre. Malgré des contextes et des modalités d’application fortement spécifiques, l’analyse comparative des caractéristiques structurelles de ces dispositifs permet de mettre à jour trois traits communs sur lesquels nous nous appuyions pour évaluer les effets de la RSE en mobilisant des critères spécifiques issus des travaux de l’économie institutionnelle.
