The history of modern innovation is primarily that of the industrial research laboratory, but the demise of the independent inventor —like that of the entrepreneur —has been much exaggerated. Independent inventing, in fact, continues to flourish as a cultural and technical practice in the contemporary United States. There are, however, a number of structural and cultural impediments in the way of independent inventors who seek to translate their invention into a commercial innovation. By drawing a comparison with the art world, (...) |

L’expression « subsidiarité » apparaît ces dernières années dans la littérature managériale pour conseiller des voies organisationnelles innovantes. La reprise d’un concept élaboré pour rendre compte initialement de communautés politiques, pose problème. Ce travail vise à mettre en lumière la difficulté principale du passage du champ politique au champ managérial. En effet, la subsidiarité rend au niveau inférieur un pouvoir qui lui revient de droit. Or, l’approche économique de théorie des organisations, notamment à travers la théorie de l’agence, présuppose une (...) |

The term « subsidiarity » started to appear in managerial literature in the last few years, to advocate innovative managerial practices.

Currently, it is being proposed as an integrative theory of economic ethics (Donaldson&Dunfee, forthcoming). This paper will extend (...) |

Subsidiarity is often implicitly conceived as an organizational model or a Weberian ideal type. The purpose of this paper is to show that, in contrast, subsidiarity is a principle in the sense of the tradition originating from Thomas Aquinas. Considered as an ideal type, subsidiarity may be perceived as impossible to apply because of its ideal status, abstracted from the circumstances. Here, we will demonstrate the consequences of the fact that subsidiarity is one of the common principles of practical moral (...) |
