co-produire une connaissance transformative

The goal of this article is to inform practitioners and researchers alike about the emerging practice of collaboratively mapping alternative economies. The paper draws from an inventory of over 200 maps, action research, and semi-structured interviews to explore how collaborative mapping – a practice that is largely citizen-driven – may be leveraged for the co-production of (scientific) knowledge about alternative economies. An array of real and ideal types is proposed in order to help navigate the various dimensions of collaborative mapping. Four lines of discussion are proposed: (1) what can we learn from maps when reframed as mappings – as processes? (2) How performativity may bring light to evaluating the transformational nature of knowledge derived from collaborative? (3) How does collaborative mapping offer avenues for rethinking empowerment of citizens in producing knowledge about alternative economies? And, (4) what new challenges are emerging from acknowledging digital knowledge as a commons?Le but de cet article est d’informer autant les personnes de terrain que les chercheurs à propos de la cartographie collaborative appliquée dans le champ des économies alternatives. Cette étude est basée sur un inventaire de plus de 200 cartes, une recherche-action de deux ans, ainsi que des entretiens semi-directifs afin d’explorer dans quelle mesure la cartographie collaborative – une pratique largement à l’initiative des citoyens – peut être mise à profit de la co-production d’une connaissance des économies alternatives. Un éventail d’idéaux-types et de types réels est proposé afin de s’orienter à travers les diverses dimensions de la cartographie collaborative. Quatre axes de discussion sont explorés : (1) que peut-on apprendre de ces cartes lorsqu’elles sont comprise comme processus de cartographies ? (2) comment le concept de performativité permet de mieux comprendre la nature transformatrice de connaissances dérivées de cartographies collaboratives ; (3) dans quelle mesure la cartographie collaborative offre des pistes de réflexion afin de repenser la question de l’agence des citoyens dans la production de connaissances au sujet des économies alternatives ; et, enfin, (4) quels nouveaux défis découlent d’une reconceptualisation de la connaissance comme un commun ?Peer Reviewe

Recognizing and Resolving Social Dilemmas in Supply Chain Public–Private Partnerships

The public-private partnership is a popular strategy for creating global sustainable value. However, many public-private partnerships struggle to realize their value-added potential. Why do some public-private partnerships succeed while others fail, and how may those struggling succeed? Combining supply-chain integration and social dilemma perspectives into the conversation of public-private partnerships, we examine the dynamics and psychology ofcooperation necessary for public-private partnership success. Addressing the first part of our research question, we recognize three social dilemmas that can manifest while managing public-private partnership supply chains: a give-some dilemma, a take-some dilemma, and a give-or-take-some dilemma. To address the second part of our research question, we present a taxonomy of strategies resolving these public-private partnership social dilemmas through the enhancement of trust, self-efficacy, and/or social responsibility. We discuss implications for public-private partnerships, supply-chain, and social dilemma literatures

Improving the Quality of Knowledge Assets: Governance Mechanisms and Their Implications

Knowledge management initiatives are less likely to be successful if knowledge repositories do not provide high-quality knowledge assets. Two mechanisms employed by organizations to ensure knowledge quality are using experts to control or edit users’ contributions (such as in a refereed repository), and using a community of users to review, rate, or edit existing contributions (such as in a community-driven wiki). The goal of this paper is to explore these two mechanisms by drawing upon the concept of societal governance from sociology, identify the conditions under which they are preferable, and discuss their impact on how users contribute to and reuse information from knowledge repositories. Propositions are suggested and implications are discussed

The perilous path toward supply chain integration addressed from social capital perspective: An aggregated theoretical framework exploring the potential mediating role of knowledge sharing

A number of reports indicate that historically, due to its controversial foundations, companies have been struggling in identifying a standard route to pave the way to seamless supply chain integration (SCI) (Bask, A., Juga, J. 2001). The need to unveil the blurriness inherent to this concept  has been exacerbated in the post Covid-19 era (Hassan and Abbasi, 2021),  which had and still have tremendous negative impact on firms productivity.  Through our article we aim at exploring an avenue of analysis to support firms succeed their integrative initiatives with supply chain partners and ultimately make it a successful journey. Our essay is built on the premise that SCI is a form of alliance and social dilemma (McCarter et Northcraft, 2007;Fawcett et al., 2008 ; Agarwal, Croson, et Mahoney, 2009; McCarter & al., 2009 ; Zhao & al., 2011) and thus considered social capital as a grounding theory with social capital dimensions as potential enabling factors of SCI (El Abboubi, M., 2021). Based on an extensive literature review we argue that knowledge sharing, as the fundamental resource to capitalize on by the firms to gain competitive advantage (Grant and Baden-Fuller 1995), plays a mediating role in the potential relationship between social capital dimensions and SCI. This statement is supported by scholars who studied empirically the impact of each facet of the three dimensions of social capital naming, as defined in the framework of Nahapiet & Ghoshal (1998), structural, relational and cognitive dimensions, on fostering the knowledge transfer between stakeholder in the frame of inter or intra-organizational collaboration such as SCI project. Also, it emerges from the literature that knowledge has been identified as a critical pre-condition for effective supply chains (Harland, C.M., 1996; Lee, H.L. et al., 2000) as it provides motivation for collaboration between SC partner and has the potential to enable more effective SCI projects (Lee, Padmanabhan, and Whang 1997a; Lee, So, and Tang 2000).  These findings have been crystallized in a proposal of theoretical research model that requires to be investigated empirically to confirm the validity of the formulated hypothesizes. We closed up the article with highlighting the limits of our work and a proposal of leads for future research.   JEL Classification: J24, O15 Paper type: Theoretical researchA number of reports indicate that historically, due to its controversial foundations, companies have been struggling in identifying a standard route to pave the way to seamless supply chain integration (SCI) (Bask, A., Juga, J. 2001).
