Selon la théorie des parties prenantes, la Responsabilité Sociétal de l’Entreprise (RSE) est la réponse donnée par les entreprises à la pression croissantes des employées, actionnaires, communautés locales, ONG environnementales ou régulateurs afin de prendre en compte les impacts environnementaux et sociaux de leurs activités. L’enjeu n’est pas une simple compensation des externalités négatives mais une transformation des entreprises pour permettre une croissance durable. Ainsi, la RSE pousse les entreprises à être proactive et à dépasser les attentes règlementaires. Cependant, comment réussir à concilier des objectifs si différents voire opposés ? Alors que de plus en plus d’entreprises intègrent la RSE au cœur de leurs stratégies, les processus de gouvernance semblent être le chainon manquant pour réunir performance économique, sociale et environnementale. Cette thèse présente des arguments empiriques et théoriques de l’impact de la gouvernance à son plus haut niveau, du conseil d’administration au Directeur Général (DG). Après un chapitre d’introduction, le chapitre 2 analyse le lien entre la composition des conseils d’administrations et l’intégration de la RSE dans la stratégie des entreprises. Il s’appuie sur une loi sur la représentation des femmes dans les conseils d’administrations. Adopté en France en 2011, cette loi a entrainé la nomination de nouveaux administrateurs, majoritairement des femmes plus jeunes que leurs prédécesseurs. Pour autant, ce chapitre montre que l’augmentation de la diversité au sein des conseils n’est pas corrélée à variation de la performance financière et extra-financière. Ce chapitre repose sur l’étude des entreprises du SBF 120 de 2009 à 2015. Cependant, si les caractéristiques des administrateurs sont impliquées dans les processus de décisions, la mise en place des stratégies et le management de l’entreprise est confié au soin du DG. Grâce à un système de rémunération avec part variable, le conseil d’administrations s’applique à aligner les intérêts du DG avec les siens. Le chapitre 3 étudie l’efficacité des rémunérations variables basées sur des critères environnementaux ou sociétaux. Il montre que l’impact de ces « Bonus RSE » dépend du modèle de gouvernance de l’entreprise. Chez les entreprises possédant une gouvernance de type actionnarial, les « Bonus RSE » semble n’avoir qu’un impact négatif sur la performance financière. En revanche, pour les entreprises du type partenarial, ces bonus permettent efficacement l’amélioration des performances extra-financières sans diminuer la performance financière. Cette étude empirique se base sur un panel mondial de 3500 entreprises sur la période 2006-2015. Le chapitre 4 propose un modèle théorique permettant d’analyser l’impact de la nature intrinsèque ou extrinsèque des motivations. Basé sur le modèle principal-agent développé par Che et Yoo (2001), ce chapitre analyse différentes incitations pour une entreprise composée de deux agents travaillant sur une tâche « RSE ». Trois scénarios sont étudiés : les deux agents reçoivent une compensation financière, les deux agents sont motivés intrinsèquement, un agent est motivé intrinsèquement et l’autre financièrement. Le modèle montre que le scénario optimal pour le principal dépend du niveau de motivation intrinsèque mais également de l’interdépendance entre les décisions des deux agents. Dans le cas particulier de la rémunération des directeurs d’entreprises, les données empiriques montrent qu’inclure des critères RSE dans la rémunération est plus adapté aux entreprises avec une forte interdépendance décisionnelle. La conclusion retrace le lien qui unit gouvernance et RSE à plusieurs niveaux, et discute de l’implication des réseaux et effets de mimétisme entre entreprise. / According to the stakeholders’ theory, Corporate Social Responsibly is the firm’s response to increasing pressure from employees, shareholders, communities, environmental NGOs or regulators to consider the social and environmental consequences of their business activity. What is at stake, is not only a compensation of negative externalities but the adaptation and the participation of firms to a sustainable growth. In that sense, CSR is not just about being efficient but being the best and push firms to be proactive and go beyond legal requirements. But how manage objectives so various and even opposite? While firms start to integrate CSR into their global business strategy, at the top of the decision-making process, corporate governance appears to be the missing link to join economic, environmental and social objectives. This dissertation provides empirical and theoretical evidences of the determining factors involved at the high level of firms’ governance, from the board of directors to the CEO. After an introduction chapter, chapter 2 investigates the link between board composition and integrated CSR strategies. Adopted in 2011, the law targets listed firms and brought about the entrance of new directors, more likely to be women and younger than prior directors. However, we do not find evidence that this diversity is correlated to financial or extra-financial performance. For this chapter, we use a panel composed of French listed companies (SBF120 index) over the 2009-2015 period. If director’s characteristics are involved at the top of the decision making-process, the execution of the strategy and management of the firm is delegated to the CEO. Using variable pay, compensation part determined by performance objectives, the board aligns the CEO’s interests with his own interests. Chapter 3 shows evidence of the effectiveness of CSR based compensation part, labelled under the term “CSR contracting”. We show that the impact of such compensation depends on the governance structure. For firms who focus on shareholder, CSR contracting is more likely to have a negative impact on financial performance and no impact on extra-financial performance. On the contrary, for firms with a stakeholder model of governance, we show that CSR contracting is effective and have a positive impact on the environmental and social performance without impacting the economic results. This empirical work is conducted on a worldwide dataset with 3500 firms over the 2006-2015 period. Chapter 4 provides a theoretical framework to understand the role of governance factor on the efficiency of incentives. We develop a model based on Che et Yoo (2001) model to study the influence of compensation among a team of two managers who have to work on a CSR task. We determine the optimal compensation between three compensation mixes: both agents receive monetary compensations, both agents receive external rewards from their environment, one agent receives monetary compensation and the other receives an external reward. We show that the choice of the optimal compensation scheme depends on the environment outside the firm, i.e. the level of the exogenous reward, and the environment inside the firm through the level of the interdependence between the managers' decisions which corresponds to the capacity of the firm to create cooperation between the agents. Then, using evidence from executive compensation, we apply this model to the relationship between the CEO and the board of directors and find that the adoption of monetary incentives for CSR tasks is more suitable for firms with a high decisional interdependence than for firms with a lower interdependence. In conclusion, from directors’ characteristics to the overall governance organisation, we retrace the link between corporate governance and CSR integrated strategies; a link who could go beyond firm frontiers and include industry ties and peer effects.

En este trabajo de investigación se indagará sobre la importancia que se genera al tocar temas sociales para incrementar y mejorar la imagen de una marca. En el mercado actual donde las empresas distribuyen productos y servicios similares entre si, la imagen proyectada ayuda a diferenciar a la marca de otras. Es por eso que los anunciantes se ven en la necesidad de utilizar la publicidad para tomar posturas sobre cuestiones políticas y sociales, generando que el público les atribuya una imagen de marca favorable y responsable socialmente. Está comprobado que las marcas que comunican su postura a favor y en apoyo a la comunidad LGBTIQ+ y a la igualdad de género en sus campañas, se presentan como fuertes y audaces por la generación más joven. Este estudio se centrará en analizar la percepción que se genera frente a una marca que recurre a utilizar la representación transfeminista con personajes trans en su publicidad, específicamente, en el rubro de las marcas de moda como lo es Calvin Klein. / In this research work, we will investigate the importance that is generated by talking about social issues to increase and improve the brand image. In the current market where companies distribute similar products and services among themselves, the projected image helps to differentiate the brand from others. That's why advertisers need to use advertising to take positions on political and social issues, generating a favorable and socially responsible brand image for the public. It is proven that brands that communicate their position in favor and in support of the LGBTIQ+ community and gender equality in their campaigns are presented as strong and bold by the younger generation. This study will focus on analyzing the perception generated by a brand that resorts to using the transfeminist representation with trans characters in its advertising, specifically, in the field of fashion brands such as Calvin Klein. / Trabajo de investigación

Solicitud de embargo por publicación en revista indexada. / La pandemia del COVID-19 generó que actividades cotidianas tengan que adaptarse a la nueva realidad, entre ellos el uso de las comunicaciones y las personas involucradas en este rubro, como los influencers. Durante la pandemia, el usuario utilizó mayor tiempo las redes sociales e incrementó su interés por mantenerse informado sobre la salud y su realidad. Por otro lado, el mal uso de las redes sociales produjo una infodemia de noticias falsas que complicó el poder encontrar información veraz. Por ello, buscaban que los influencers, con gran alcance en sus plataformas digitales, representen un papel social y responsable con su entorno. El objetivo de la presente investigación es analizar el impacto de las comunicaciones y el uso de la responsabilidad social de las influencers, específicamente en Instagram, en el contexto de la pandemia. Para poder observar este fenómeno se ha realizado una investigación mixta que integra las métricas cualitativas y cuantitativas de esta red social. Los instrumentos de investigación fueron articulados mediante complementación y utilizando el análisis de contenido, logrando adaptar instrumentos aplicados por otros autores en el ámbito de la responsabilidad social. Los resultados obtenidos se centran en cómo los influencers utilizaron la responsabilidad social dentro de sus contenidos audiovisuales cotidianos. En este sentido, se demuestra que los influencers juegan un papel relevante al sumarse a compartir la comunicación veraz y asertiva sobre los acontecimientos que se han suscitado por la pandemia, y dejan un precedente a futuro sobre el impacto de la influencia relacionada a la responsabilidad social. / The COVID-19 pandemic led to daily activities having to adapt to the new reality, including the use of communications and the people involved in this area, such as influencers. During the pandemic, the user used social networks for longer and increased their interest in staying informed about health and its reality. On the other hand, the misuse of social networks produced a fake news infodemic that made it difficult to find truthful information. For this reason, they wanted influencers, with great reach in their digital platforms, to represent a social and responsible role with their environment. The objective of this research is to analyze the impact of communications and the use of social responsibility by influencers, specifically on Instagram, in the context of the pandemic. In order to observe this phenomenon, a mixed investigation has been carried out that integrates the qualitative and quantitative metrics of this social network. The research instruments were articulated through complementation and using content analysis, managing to adapt instruments applied by other authors in the field of social responsibility. The results obtained focus on how the influencers used social responsibility within their daily audiovisual content. In this sense, it is shown that influencers play a relevant role by joining to share truthful and assertive communication about the events that have arisen by the pandemic, and leave a future precedent on the impact of influence related to social responsibility. / Tesis

This study examines how the organizational model of the Church of Sweden as stipulated in laws and regulations can contribute to an understanding of practical board work among members of working committees that are related to individual board members’ understanding of the organizational notions collaboration and responsibility. The study further examines how these two notions may be affected by how the organizational model of the Church of Sweden describes and outlines how collaboration and responsibility should ideally work within the Church of Sweden. Through qualitative analyses of regulatory documents, observations of board work and interviews and surveys with active board members, both clergy and lay members, of working committees within the Church of Sweden, the study finds that an ideal logic of how the organizational model of the Church of Sweden should work is conveyed through laws and regulations, but finds that the studied working committees follow these to a limited extent. Instead the study concludes that the practice of the studied working committees is determined by how individual members understand and believe the organizational model should work, i.e. how clergy and lay members within the working committees should cooperate. There is an indication of a correlation between how the working committees organize their work in the committees and how they relate to the organizational model of the Church of Sweden. The working committees that have a weak co-operation, seem to focus more on internal issues within their local church, while working committees that have a strong co-operation tend to focus more on strategic public issues within their local diocese.

Cette étude aborde la problématique de la participation des personnes morales de droit public à l’arbitrage à l’occasion des litiges relatifs aux relations qu’elles entretiennent avec les personnes privées étrangères. Par opportunisme économique, un certain nombre de pays développés et en développement se montrent tout à fait favorables à ce que l’État se soumette au contentieux arbitral. Dans d’autres pays, tels qu’en Amérique latine et dans le monde arabe, il se manifeste des tendances nettement hostiles gravitant entre l’interdiction totale et une adhésion conditionnelle de l’État à l’arbitrage. Deux écoles s’affrontent, celle des privatistes qui considèrent l’arbitre international comme le juge naturel du milieu des affaires, face à celle des étatistes qui postulent que les juridictions étatiques demeurent les seules habiles à connaitre souverainement des litiges opposants les personnes publiques à leur interlocuteur privé. Les raisons qui sous-tendent l’assouplissement de certains gouvernements vers un élan libéral de l’arbitrage en droit public, résultent du phénomène globalisant de l’économie qui tend à réduire à néant les règles internes des États dans le cadre du nouvel ordre économique mondial. Par contre, les conséquences sociales, financières et juridiques des sentences arbitrales portent certains gouvernements à adopter une position réfractaire à l’arbitrage mettant en cause les entités publiques. Ils brandissent le droit à l’autodétermination des peuples pour éviter le bradage de leurs ressources au détriment des droits économiques, sociaux et culturels de leurs populations, et ce, en dépit du fait que l’investissement direct étranger joue un rôle considérable dans le développement des pays en émergence. Notre défi ultime dans ce travail est d’explorer les diverses avenues permettant d’atteindre un juste équilibre entre les intérêts publics et la protection des investissements privés. Ceci exige un changement de paradigme qui prendra en compte les dimensions plurielles que constitue le contentieux investisseurs-États. / This study investigates the difficulties that arise when legal disputes between public bodies and foreign private entities are resolved through arbitration. For economic expediency, some Western states and developing countries are quite open to the idea of resolving legal disputes by submitting to arbitration proceedings. Other countries, such as Latin America and the Arab world, have a clearly hostile approach to state participation in arbitration proceedings, ranging from total prohibition to conditional submission. There is a clash between two schools of thought: the privatist approach that considers international arbitration to be the business community’s natural forum, as opposed to the statist approach according to which only state courts are qualified to consider legal disputes between public bodies and private entities. The underlying reasons for the increased flexibility of certain governments in favor of a liberal move towards public law arbitration are a result of the globalizing effect of the economy, which tends to decimate domestic state laws within the framework of the new global economic order. On the other hand, the social, financial and legal consequences of arbitration awards render some governments resistant to arbitration involving public entities. They brandish the right to self-determination of peoples to guard against the depletion of their resources to the detriment of the economic, social and cultural rights of their populations. This is despite the fact that foreign direct investment plays a considerable role in the development of emerging countries. The ultimate aim of this study is to explore different avenues for striking a fair balance between public interests and the protection of private investments. This requires a paradigmatic change so as to take into account the multiple dimensions of legal disputes between the state and investors.

Quelques chercheurs ont récemment étudié le rôle de levier d’innovation, voire même d’innovation inversé des projets social business ou BOP pour les multinationales des pays développés.Cette étude longitudinale analyse en profondeur le cas d’une multinationale de l’agroalimentaire, et explore le rôle des projets social business et BOP (SBOP) dans le renouveau stratégique de cette entreprise : l’aidant à être simultanément plus durable (face aux défis environnementaux et sociaux actuels) et compétitive. Elle analyse le processus de ce renouveau stratégique mené à partir des projets SBOP et les facteurs clés de succès de ce renouveau ; parmi eux : une double approche (« top down » et « bottom up »), articulée sur trois niveaux: individuel, collectif and organisationnel. Elle met aussi en valeur l’impact de l’orientation sociétale des projets, comme accélérateur et amplificateur de ce renouveau. / For a few years researchers have been focusing on the BOP as a lever for innovation and even reverse innovation for MNEs from developed countries. This in depth longitudinal study of an agrofood company explores the role of BOP and social business (SBOP) initiatives as a lever for strategic renewal of a whole company: helping it become simultaneously more sustainable (as regards our global environmental and social challenges) and more competitive. It analyses the process of this renewal and the key factors of its success; among them: a double (top down and bottom up) approach: articulated on three levels: individual, collective and organizational. It also analyses the role of a socially oriented focus as a booster of this strategic renewal.

[pt] O gerenciamento de resíduos sólidos tornou-se um tema de preocupação para administradores públicos de todo o mundo. O aumento no nível de consumo, somado ao uso indiscriminado de materiais descartáveis, despertou na opinião pública movimentos que cobram das empresas uma nova postura referente à preservação dos recursos naturais. O Green Supply Chain Management - GrSCM, surge como uma nova forma de gerenciamento da cadeia de suprimentos que leva em conta todo o ciclo de vida do produto, desde a extração de suas matérias-primas, até sua disposição final. Uma vez que a aplicação deste conceito ainda é incipiente, o presente trabalho inicialmente apresenta uma abordagem das principais definições descritas na literatura para os termos ligados ao GrSCM. Em seguida, a partir de um diagnóstico que referencia a situação dos resíduos sólidos na comunidade da Rocinha, uma favela no Município do Rio de Janeiro, propõe diretrizes gerais para um sistema logístico de recolha e beneficiamento destes resíduos (com destaque aos recicláveis) para áreas de favela em geral, buscando medidas práticas de aplicação do conceito de GrSCM em locais de ocupação irregular e pobreza acentuada. As diretrizes foram traçadas sob três perspectivas: a dos empresários geradores dos produtos; a dos moradores e organizações locais e a dos órgãos públicos e instituições responsáveis pela coleta e limpeza da região. Como conclusão, defende-se que para o bom funcionamento de um sistema de gerenciamento de resíduos a partir da aplicação do GrSCM em realidades tão complexas, governo e empresas privadas devem ser parceiros e atuar de forma coordenada. Cabe ainda aos moradores e organizações locais, o dever de cobrar, adotar, fiscalizar e promover ações que visem o bem estar do local onde vivem. / [en] Municipal solid waste management (MSCM) has become a topic of concern for public administrators all over the world. The increase in the level of consumption added to the indiscriminate use of disposables, gave rise to public opinion movements that require new approaches from companies in order to preserve the natural resources. The Green Supply Chain Management (GrSCM) emerges as a new way of managing the supply chain that takes into account the whole life cycle of the product, from the extraction of raw materials to its correct final disposal. Since the application of this concept is still new, this dissertation initially defines the main terms related to the GrSCM described in the literature. Following, based on MSW data obtained on the Rocinha community, in the Rio de Janeiro municipality, general guidelines of a logistic system for the collection and processing of waste (with emphasis on recycling) in slum areas aiming to achieve practical measurements for the application of the GrSCM concept are proposed. These guidelines were drawn from three perspectives: that of the entrepreneurs that generate the goods; that of the residents and local organizations; and that of the public agencies and institutions responsible for collecting and cleaning the area. In conclusion, it is argued that for the proper functioning of a MSW management system in complex neighborhoods based on the application of GrSCM, government and entrepreneurs must be partners and act in a coordinated manner. Besides, the residents and local organizations must adopt, promote and monitor actions that aim the welfare of the local where they live.

[pt] Com base na análise dos Relatórios de Sustentabilidade de 2012 de quatro empresas de diferentes segmentos (Telecomunicações, Seguros e Previdência, Cosmético e Mineração), a presente pesquisa buscou entender qual a racionalidade predominante neste tipo de publicação à luz dos conceitos de racionalidade instrumental e racionalidade substantiva de Guerreiro Ramos. Para alcançar este objetivo, o marco teórico apresentou a discussão na literatura acerca dos conceitos de responsabilidade social, sustentabilidade, racionalidade substantiva, racionalidade instrumental, identidade organizacional e reputação corporativa. No que diz respeito aos procedimentos metodológicos, os conjuntos de documentos coletados foram analisados por meio da análise de conteúdo, o que permitiu a criação de categorias de observação, quais sejam: (1) Relação com Stakeholders; (2) Declarações e Referenciais Institucionais; (3) Aspectos Legais; e (4) Equilíbrio Triple Botton Line. A seguir, cada categoria foi relacionada com um conjunto de elementos característicos das duas racionalidades elencadas gerando duas classificações distintas. Como resultados alcançados, de uma forma geral, foi possível identificar a predominância de elementos de racionalidade instrumental na maioria dos discursos, o que confirma a hipótese inicial e indica o cálculo utilitário presente em grande parte destes documentos. De forma mais aplicada, as conclusões do estudo contribuem para uma gestão das organizações mais holística/humanística, pois torna possível que estas reflitam e problematizem o seu posicionamento e suas ações em relação à Sustentabilidade, observando se a opção por um discurso mais superficial que visa apenas atender à construção de uma boa imagem institucional é tão efetiva quanto um discurso que relate valores e práticas organizacionais que lidem com os reais desafios de uma atual gestão sustentável. Além disso, as conclusões podem suscitar novas questões sobre o tema – como, por exemplo, como seria a evolução do discurso nos relatórios de sustentabilidade de uma mesma empresa com o passar do tempo - que poderão ser melhor exploradas por novos estudos. / [en] Based on the analysis of the 2012 Sustainability Reports from four companies of different segments (Telecommunications, Insurance, Cosmetics and Mining), this research sought to understand the prevailing rationality in this type of publication, in relation to the concepts of instrumental rationality and substantive rationality, based on Guerreiro Ramos. To accomplish this goal, the theoretical framework presented a discussion about the concepts of social responsibility, sustainability, substantive rationality, instrumental rationality, organizational identity and corporate reputation. Regarding the methodological procedures, collected documents were studied using content analysis, which allowed the creation of categories of observation, which are: (1) Relationship with Stakeholders; (2) Institutional statements and frameworks; (3) Legal Aspects, and (4) Triple Bottom Line balance. Next, each category was related to a set of characteristic elements of the two rationales listed, creating two different classifications. According to the results, in general, it was possible to identify the predominance of elements related to instrumental rationality in most speeches, which confirms the initial assumption and indicates the utilitarian calculation largely seen in these documents. As a practical matter, this study’s findings contribute to the management of organizations, once it becomes possible for these companies to ponder over and problematize their positioning and their actions in relation to sustainability, observing if the option for a more superficial discourse that seeks only a good corporate image is as effective as a discourse that reports organizational values and practices that address the real challenges of a current sustainable management. In addition, these findings may raise new questions about the subject – such as how the evolution of speech in sustainability reports of the one company over time would be, which could be better explored by further studies.

Les domaines de la philosophie et de la théorie politique ont connu un certain nombre de changements au cours des quarante dernières années. L'un attire notre attention tout particulièrement ; le basculement d'un point de vue national, cristallisé par le contrat social rawlsien, vers un point de vue non-national. En effet, plusieurs penseurs abordent un ensemble de phénomènes considérés comme nouveaux, tels que les traités de libre commerce et l'économie globale, les entreprises et les institutions supra et transnationales, l'immigration et les contrôles frontaliers etc. Ces changements sont intéressants puisqu'ils obéissent, principalement, à une évolution majeure du terrain politique et social que l'on appelle mondialisation. Les théoriciens travaillant dans le domaine de la justice globale semblent s'adresser à deux questions différentes mais reliées. La première concerne la justice globale : dans quelle mesure et pourquoi l'ordre mondial est-il juste ou injuste ? Qu'est-ce qu'un ordre global juste ? La deuxième est dans un sens corollaire à la première, et concerne la responsabilité : qui devrait être blâmé ou digne d'éloge pour l'ordre mondial ? Est-ce que les citoyens sont responsables de l'ordre mondial ? Qui devrait redresser ses éventuelles conséquences injustes ? Face à l'économie mondialisée et aux institutions politiques et économiques internationales et trans-nationales, cette interrogation devient légitime et nécessaire : suis-je responsable à l'égard des travailleurs des sweat shop lorsque j'achète des habits à Auchan ou bien à l'égard des caféiculteurs très mal payés lorsque je prends un capuccino dans un café Starbucks ? Est-ce que les citoyens sont responsables des traités de libre commerce que leurs gouvernements signent ? Ces questions sur la responsabilité des individus dans le contexte de la mondialisation seront l'enjeu de ce travail de recherche. Nous interrogerons plus exactement la responsabilité d'un agent lorsqu'il fait partie d'un chaîne causale complexe, lorsqu'il participe d'une injustice structurelle. Ainsi, il ne s'agit pas seulement d'une chaîne causale, mais de connexions qui sont l'issue d'un changement des modes de productions, de consommation et de la concurrence dans un marché mondialisé. Plus important encore, il ne s'agit pas simplement de la responsabilité individuelle mais plutôt de la responsabilité individuelle en tant que citoyen, et donc d'une responsabilité politique. Elle peut certes être individuelle, mais nous devons tenir compte du fait qu'elle doit être pensée en tant que responsabilité politique, et pas uniquement morale, puisque l'individu et ses actions sont déterminés par des communautés politiques dans lesquelles il participe, ou dans lesquelles il est représenté. Ainsi, la mondialisation nous invite à repenser la responsabilité individuelle pour pouvoir rendre compte des intuitions morales et politiques qui guident une bonne partie du champ de la justice globale. Pour cela, nous verrons dans un premier temps la manière dont les théories de la justice globale essaient de répondre à ce défit. Grâce à cela nous dégagerons l'hypothèse qui nous guidera, l'idée que dans la mondialisation, un agent peut être responsable, avec d'autres, des raisons pour lesquelles il n'est pas considéré comme responsable. C'est-à-dire qu'il sera méta-responsable. Dans un second temps, nous essaierons de déterminer un model de responsabilité individuelle, et de comprendre comment la responsabilité est attribuée. Ensuite, nous essaierons de formuler une manière de concevoir la responsabilité politique. Grâce à ces deux éléments, la responsabilité individuelle et la responsabilité politique, nous pourrons parvenir à formuler une conception de la méta-responsabilité comme forme de penser l'agentivité traversée par la mondialisation. / The fields of philosophy and political theory have met major changes in the past 40 years. On of them is quite interesting; there has been a change of the national point of view, which paradigm could be the rawlsian model, to a non-national one. Many thinkers have thought about a set of phenomenons considered as new such as free trade agreements and global economy, supra and transnational institutions and corporations, immigration and border control etc. The thinkers working on global justice seem to adresse two sets of different but related questions. The first ones concern global justice: why and to which extend is global order just or unjust? What is a just global order? The second set is, in a sense a corollary of the first and concerns responsibility: who is to be blamed or praised for the global order? Are citizens responsible for the global order? Who should address its possible unjust consequences? Facing globalization and international and transnational political and economical institutions those questions become legitimate and necessary: am I responsible for the sweat shop workers that produced the clothes I bought at Auchan or for badly payed coffee-grower when I buy a capuccino at Starbucks? Are citizens responsible for the free-trade agreements that are signed by there governments? These questions concerning the individual responsibility in the age of globalization will be the object of these research. We will question the responsibility of an agent when he is part of a complex causal chain, when contributes to structural injustice. Thus, it is not only about a causal chain but about connexions that are the result of changes in the modes of production and consumption, or the competition on a global market. Moreover, individual responsibility, in this context, cannot be thought solely as individual but the responsibility of individuals qua citizen, this is political responsibility. It is certainly individual but since agents and their actions are also determined by the political communities to which they belong or that represent them, this responsibility must be thought as political and not only as moral. Thus, globalization invite us to rethink individual responsibility in order to make sense of the the moral and political intuitions the guide the field of global justice. In order to do so, we will see, first, the way in which some theories of global justice try to tackle this challenge. Thanks to this we will determine thy hypothesis that will guide us; the idea that in the context of globalization an agent can be responsible, with others, for the reasons that make him non-responsible, that is, meta-responsible. On a second moment we will try to formulate a model of individual responsibility and to understand its conditions of attributability. Subsequently we will try to formulate a way to conceive political responsibility. Thanks to this two elements, individual responsibility and political responsibility we will be finally able to formulate a conception of meta-responsibility as a way to think agency when it is entwined by globalization.

Le modèle de production et de consommation linéaire, qui se résume à: extraire, produire, utiliser puis jeter, menace la préservation de nos ressources naturelles, alors même que les Déchets d’Équipements Électriques et Électroniques (DEEE) constituent des « mines urbaines » riches en métaux de valeur. Les politiques publiques classiques des années 70, fondées sur une approche régalienne, se sont révélées inefficaces pour stimuler des démarches innovantes et collectives.Dans cette thèse, nous étudions une approche alternative fondée sur un principe de responsabilisation des producteurs, encadrés par une forme de co-régulation entre acteurs publics et privés. Alors que la responsabilité est souvent associée à une logique individuelle, qu’est-ce qu’une responsabilité collective? Plus encore, pour faire de la responsabilisation une technique politique de gouvernement, quels processus et instruments s’agit-il de mobiliser pour rendre des acteurs collectivement responsables?À travers le cas de la filière des DEEE, cette thèse propose des principes de la co-régulation. Nous nous appuyons sur la littérature sur les communs, où ont été discutées les conditions d’une gestion et d’une gouvernance collectives. La thèse repose sur une approche exploratoire, qualitative et longitudinale. Une analyse comparative au niveau européen permet une mise en perspective des propositions théoriques. / The Linear Economy is structured on: extraction, production, product use and landfill. This model prevails although it is a threat to the preservation of natural resources. Whereas, Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) constitute “Urban Mines” that are rich in valuable metals. Public policies from the 70s, based on regulatory constraints, have proved to be inefficient in instigating innovative and collective processes.In this thesis, we study an alternative approach based on the responsabilization of producers through co-regulated action between public and private actors. While responsibility is often linked to individualism, this work scrutinizes the substance of collective responsibility. Furthermore, in consideration of responsabilization as a mode of political governance, we examine the processes and the instruments which could be engaged to bestow collective responsibility on private actors.Through an exploratory, qualitative and longitudinal approach in the context of the WEEE sector, we propose new co-regulation principles. The research is based on the literature of the commons in which the conditions of a collective governance are discussed. The theoretical propositions are considered in the perspective of a comparative analysis at the European level.
