Abstract

Cet article propose d'interpréter les logiques de reporting sociétal à la lumière des cadres normatifs comptables. Dans une première partie, nous rappelons les principaux arguments qui justifient l'intégration du reporting sociétal dans les dispositifs de communication financière des entreprises cotées. L'analyse des cadres théoriques classiques de la publication d'informations sociétales (théories contractuelles et théorie de la légitimité) conduisent à identifier deux logiques de communication : une « logique de la valeur » et une « logique de la transaction ». Dans une seconde partie, nous explicitons de quelle manière ces logiques correspondent aux approches conceptuelles de la comptabilité. La logique de la valeur s'inscrit dans une conception statique de la comptabilité et la logique de la transaction s'inscrit dans une approche dynamique de la comptabilité.
