Book Synopsis Pouvoir, finance et connaissance by : Olivier Weinstein
Download or read book Pouvoir, finance et connaissance written by Olivier Weinstein and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les profondes transformations des entreprises sont au cœur de celles du capitalisme mondial depuis les années 1980. Elles ont conduit à la désagrégation de la firme " chandlérienne ", forme dominante de la grande entreprise pendant la plus grande partie du XXe siècle. Dans cet essai, Olivier Weinstein présente de façon précise et accessible les aspects majeurs de ces mutations et les questions qu'elles soulèvent. Première évolution : la financiarisation et les transformations de la gouvernance d'entreprise. Est-on passé d'un capitalisme managérial à un capitalisme financier? Comment cela se traduit-il en termes de configurations du pouvoir et d'orientations des comportements d'entreprise? Deuxième évolution : les transformations des systèmes de production, de management et des formes d'organisation industrielle. Troisième évolution : les transformations liées à la montée de l'" économie fondée sur la connaissance ", c'est-à-dire la recomposition des modes de production et de circulation des connaissances et compétences scientifiques et technologiques, et ses implications sur les structures et stratégies d'entreprise. Ce livre s'inscrit dans une perspective longue, revenant sur la formation de l'entreprise capitaliste moderne au XIXe siècle, sur les traits de l'entreprise " chandlérienne " et du capitalisme managérial. Il se situe également dans une perspective institutionnaliste, incorporant des éléments touchant à l'évolution des formes juridiques, des instruments de gestion et des fondements idéologiques

Book Synopsis Never Ending Nightmare by : Pierre Dardot
Download or read book Never Ending Nightmare written by Pierre Dardot and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2019-04-16 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neoliberalism's war against democracy and how to resist it How do we explain the strange survival of the forces responsible for the 2008 economic crisis, one of the worst since 1929? How do we explain the fact that neoliberalism has emerged from the crisis strengthened? When it broke, a number of the most prominent economists hastened to announce the 'death' of neoliberalism. They regarded the pursuit of neoliberal policy as the fruit of dogmatism. For Pierre Dardot and Christian Laval, neoliberalism is no mere dogma. Supported by powerful oligarchies, it is a veritable politico-institutional system that obeys a logic of self-reinforcement. Far from representing a break, crisis has become a formidably effective mode of government. In showing how this system crystallized and solidified, the book explains that the neoliberal straitjacket has succeeded in preventing any course correction by progressively deactivating democracy. Increasing the disarray and demobilization, the so-called 'governmental' Left has actively helped strengthen this oligarchical logic. The latter could lead to a definitive exit from democracy in favour of expertocratic governance, free of any control. However, nothing has been decided yet. The revival of democratic activity, which we see emerging in the political movements and experiments of recent years, is a sign that the political confrontation with the neoliberal system and the oligarchical bloc has already begun.
Download or read book Rated Agency written by Michel Feher and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hegemony of finance compels a new orientation for everyone and everything: companies care more about the moods of their shareholders than about longstanding commercial success; governments subordinate citizen welfare to appeasing creditors; and individuals are concerned less with immediate income from labor than appreciation of their capital goods, skills, connections, and reputations. That firms, states, and people depend more on their ratings than on the product of their activities also changes how capitalism is resisted. For activists, the focus of grievances shifts from the extraction of profit to the conditions under which financial institutions allocate credit. While the exploitation of employees by their employers has hardly been curbed, the power of investors to select investees — to decide who and what is deemed creditworthy — has become a new site of social struggle. In clear and compelling prose, Michel Feher explains the extraordinary shift in conduct and orientation generated by financialization. Above all, he articulates the new political resistances and aspirations that investees draw from their rated agency.
Book Synopsis The Oxford Handbook of the Corporation by : Thomas Clarke
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of the Corporation written by Thomas Clarke and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-02-21 with total page 672 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of the Corporation assesses the contemporary relevance, purpose, and performance of the corporation. The corporation is one of the most significant, if contested, innovations in human history, and the direction and effectiveness of corporate law, corporate governance, and corporate performance are being challenged as never before. Continuously evolving, the corporation as the primary instrument for wealth generation in contemporary economies demands frequent assessment and reinterpretation. The focus of this work is the transformative impact of innovation and change upon corporate structure, purpose, and operation. Corporate innovation is at the heart of the value-creation process in increasingly internationalized and competitive market economies, and corporations today are embedded in a world of complex global supply chains and rising state and state-directed capitalism. In questioning the fundamental purpose and performance of the corporation, this Handbook continues a tradition commenced by Berle and Means, and contributed to by generations of business scholars. What is the corporation and what is it becoming? How do we define its form and purpose and how are these changing? To whom is the corporation responsible, and who should judge the ultimate performance of corporations? By investigating the origins, development, strategies, and theories of corporations, this volume addresses such questions to provide a richer theoretical account of the corporation and its contested future.
Book Synopsis Training Engineers for Innovation by : Denis Lemaître
Download or read book Training Engineers for Innovation written by Denis Lemaître and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-10-25 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history, engineers have been defined as those who bring technological innovation to society. However, the concept of innovation and the role of the engineer are now changing as a result of globalization, the digital revolution, growing inequalities and environmental concerns. Training Engineers for Innovation therefore analyzes the ways in which the educational systems for engineers are adapting to these new demands, as well as the conditions in which this training has developed. This book brings together the works of a consortium of researchers dedicated to the subject area as part of the Innov’Ing 2020 project. Its contributors present various means to devise effective pedagogies adapted to a holistic approach to innovation which incorporates the technical, economic, social, ethical and environmental dimensions of engineering.
Download or read book Fab Labs written by Laure Morel and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The digital economy is now expanding rapidly, and is starting to overturn the past achievements of the Industrial Revolution. Initially engaging in the world of services, it is now turning to the manufacture of objects. Just as microcomputing evolved from large scale computing to more personal use, and as the Internet left behind the world of armies and universities to become universal, industrial production is gradually becoming directly controlled by individuals. This appropriation is being done either on a personal level, or, more significantly, within local or planetary communities: Fab Labs. These digital fabrication laboratories offer workshops to members of the public where all sorts of tools are available (including 3D printers, laser cutters and sanders) for the design and creation of personalized objects. The bringing together of various users (amateurs, designers, artists, “dabblers”, etc.) and possibilities for collaboration lies at the heart of these open-access productive spaces. This book covers a range of advances in this new personal fabrication and various issues that it has raised, especially in terms of the alternatives to salaried work, intellectual property, ecological openings and the hitherto unseen structuring of societies.
Download or read book Democratic Work written by Alexis Cukier and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-05-08 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes a radical transformation of labour institutions, in order to lay the foundation for the democratization of society rather than capitalist accumulation. Using an empirical analysis of the contemporary world of work, Alexis Cukier examines the democratic meaning of today’s critique of work organization and questions the theoretical models (linked to class struggles and to industrial democracy) to conceive of a "democratic work." Considering particular historical experiments (such as cooperatives, self-management, worker’s councils) that try to realize democracy at work, this book also analyzes the political issue of "democratic work" in relation to issues such as labour law, feminist struggles and political ecology. Ultimately, this book proposes some institutional paths that could overtake the divide between the rights of the citizens and the rights of the workers, arguing finally: if we really want to radicalize democracy, we should begin with democratizing work.
Book Synopsis Rethinking Asian Capitalism by : Thi Anh-Dao Tran
Download or read book Rethinking Asian Capitalism written by Thi Anh-Dao Tran and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-07-20 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book attempts to reflect on the changes that Vietnam has experienced over the past 30 years, during and after DoiMoi. Through multi-dimensional empirical investigations, it aims to offer theoretical and empirical accounts for how a variety of socioeconomic regimes emerged after the end of the Cold War. Being methodologically pluralist (including both theoretical and empirical studies), it aims to give a higher profile to heterodox thinking in comparative political economy. Particular attention is given to post-socialist governance, economic transformation, land rights, trade-led growth, civil society participation, climate change, and the post-COVID 19 recovery. This book comes at a time when great changes are about to take place in Southeast Asia, where heterodox economic development strategy is rather understudied. With Asia playing an increasingly important role in the world economy, readers wish not only to hear about the economic transformation but also to see certain hidden aspects or original evidence in order that they can perceive the other dimensions put in place in a market-oriented economy. It will be relevant to students and researchers interested in transitional economics, development economics and the political economy.
Book Synopsis Le savoir et la finance by : El Mouhoub Mouhoud
Download or read book Le savoir et la finance written by El Mouhoub Mouhoud and published by Editions La Découverte. This book was released on 2009 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Depuis les années 1980, le capitalisme connaît une profonde mutation, attribuée en général à la montée en puissance de la finance, devenue force planétaire, et aux nouvelles technologies, qui ont fait entrer les économies industrielles dans la "société de la connaissance". Pour beaucoup, ce nouveau capitalisme devait profiter à tous ; une vision optimiste brutalement démentie par la crise de 2007-2008. Car les nouvelles technologies favorisent la circulation des idées et de l'information, mais de manière très inégale selon les pays, contribuant à creuser les écarts. Quant à la finance moderne, si elle facilite le développement d'innovations telles qu'Internet, elle est aussi à l'origine de l'instabilité de nos économies. Dans cet essai, El Mouhoub Mouhoud et Dominique Plihon montrent ainsi ce que les crises doivent à la contradiction majeure entre le court-termisme des financiers et l'horizon long de l'accumulation des connaissances. Et ils proposent une vision originale du capitalisme mondialisé : loin d'un "monde plat" mettant en relation les territoires et les travailleurs grâce aux nouvelles technologies de l'information, ce dernier se caractérise toujours plus par l'accaparement des connaissances et des ressources au profit d'une minorité de pays et d'acteurs - notamment lié aux dérives des droits de propriété intellectuelle. D'où un appauvrissement paradoxal des connaissances et de leur diffusion. Les auteurs explorent alors les conditions d'une alternative pour l'après-crise"--P. [4] of cover.

Book Synopsis Cognitive Capitalism, Welfare and Labour by : Andrea Fumagalli
Download or read book Cognitive Capitalism, Welfare and Labour written by Andrea Fumagalli and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-05-29 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the transformations of both accumulation process and labour in the transition from a Fordist to a cognitive capitalism paradigm, with specific regard to Western economies. It outlines the advent, after industrial capitalism, of a new phase of the capitalist system in which the value of cognitive labour becomes dominant. In this framework, the central stakes of capital valorisation and forms of property are directly based on the control and privatization of the production of collective knowledge. Here, the transformation of knowledge itself, into a commodity or a fictitious capital, is analyzed. Building on this foundation, the authors outline their concept of "commonfare." This idea of commonfare implies, as a prerequisite, the social re-appropriation of the gains arising from the exploitation of those social relations which are the basis of accumulation today. This re-appropriation does not necessarily lead to the transition from private to public ownership but it does make it necessary to distinguish between common goods and the commonwealth. This book explains this distinction and how common goods and the commonwealth require a different framework of analysis. This volume will be of great interest to all scholars and researchers, as well as a more general readership, who wish to develop a critical thinking of the mainstream analysis of this topic. Contributing to the "Marxism-heterodox" approach using rigorous theoretical analysis and empirical evidence, it is aimed at all those who act socially and aspire to a better understanding of the development and the contradictions of contemporary capitalism.

Book Synopsis Les cartes de la connaissance by : Jean-Paul Bord
Download or read book Les cartes de la connaissance written by Jean-Paul Bord and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2004 with total page 699 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les sciences humaines et sociales entretiennent avec l'image en général et la carte en particulier des rapports complexes, voire contradictoires ou extrêmes, allant du rejet iconoclaste des uns à l'iconophilie, voire l'iconomanie des autres. Pourquoi pareil spectre de positions à l'intérieur d'une même discipline (ici en géographie) et pareille diversité de pratiques entre disciplines ? Au-delà de la compétence technique nécessaire qui peut expliquer la fréquence et la virtuosité du recours à la cartographie d'une part, au-delà de l'intérêt pédagogique de la visualisation d'un discours abstrait d'autre part, se pose plus fondamentalement la question épistémologique de la valeur heuristique de la carte dans la production du savoir. Après un groupe de contributions introductives définissant des positions théoriques différentes, voire opposées, cet ouvrage développe la réflexion autour de quatre thèmes : 1) Commandes, productions et usages de la carte ; 2) Dénaturaliser les cartes : 1e pouvoir et l'autorité ; 3) Langage graphique et construction du savoir ; 4) Cartographier l'Autre. Il se poursuit par un groupe d'interrogations transversales sur les précurseurs du langage graphique de la cartographie statistique des XVIIIe et XIXe siècles ; sur la valeur rhétorique de 1a carte, les modalités collectives de construction de l'identité et de l'altérité et des politiques publiques territoriales ; à propos des politiques urbaines, sur la force de l'instrument graphique et en même temps sa difficulté, voire son incapacité, à dire la complexité du social. Trois contributions tirent enfin quelques leçons d'ensemble : la première établit une comparaison entre les traditions cartographiques anglo-saxonne et française ; la seconde, sans nier les inconvénients, voire les risques, de l'outil cartographique, insiste sur son apport aux processus de la cognition géographique ; la dernière, interrogeant les travaux de sciences politiques en priorité mais pas exclusivement, pose la question de la redondance de l'image par rapport au texte et surtout du risque d'une cartographie d'assignation, de " portrait du roi ".
