Abstract

Ce papier a pour objet de préciser la terminologie du concept de gouvernance. Nous allons examiner les modes de gouvernance les plus connus, à savoir la gouvernance d’entreprise, la gouvernance publique, et la gouvernance territoriale. C’est ainsi, que nous évoquerons le concept de la Responsabilité Sociale de l’Entreprise (RSE), le courant du New Public Management (NPM) et le concept de gouvernementalité de Michel Foucault (1978). Nous considérons que la gouvernance s’applique à un « système » et nous proposons une définition du concept de gouvernance d’un système, comme suit : « La gouvernance d’un système désigne les mécanismes au moyen desquels les mandataire(s) et les mandants articulent leurs intérêts et aplanissent leurs différences afin de réaliser leurs objectifs. La gouvernance désigne, par ailleurs, les institutions, qui influent sur l’exercice des pouvoirs dans les entités concernés. Enfin, la gouvernance d’un système est décrite par l’interaction participative entre les acteurs concernés à tous les niveaux ». La gouvernance est un concept holistique qui s’applique à plusieurs niveaux, et pour plusieurs objectifs, dans un environnement marqué par des conflits d’intérêts, des situations d’incertitudes et d’asymétrie d’information.
