Local public action and territorial anchoring of foreign subsidiaries : an ago-antagonistic perspective

Face au phénomène de désindustrialisation de certains territoires français, accompagné par des mouvements de délocalisation, et dans un contexte de concurrence mondiale exacerbée, la question de l'attractivité des territoires infranationaux se pose avec acuité. Cette thèse porte sur l'attractivité territoriale entendue comme la capacité à retenir des activités économiques étrangères de sorte à favoriser le développement territorial. Ainsi, ces travaux de recherche posent la question du lien théorique et empirique entre action publique locale et ancrage territorial des filiales étrangèresThe question of attractiveness of subnational territories is particularly raised due to the fact that some French territories are facing the phenomenon of deindustrialization accompanied with movements of relocation in a context of worldwide competition. This thesis will focus on the territorial attractiveness intended as the capacity to retain foreign economic activities so that favoring local development. Thus, the research works raise the question of the theoretical and empirical link between local public action and the territorial anchoring of foreign subsidiaries. The idea is to understand what this anchoring consists of in terms of local public action, and the way it affects i

Les formes de travail institutionnel et les rôles du territoire dans la phase d’émergence d’un RTO de l’ESS

L’article a pour objectif d’étudier l’émergence d’un Réseau Territorialisé d’Organisations (RTO) appartenant à l’économie sociale et solidaire (ESS). A travers une approche néo-institutionnelle, cette recherche étudie les différentes formes de travail institutionnel des acteurs de ce réseau (Lawrence et Suddaby, 2006; Cloutier et al., 2016) tout en questionnant les rôles que joue le territoire dans ce processus (Lawrence et Dover, 2015). L’étude menée permet d’identifier le travail territorial comme une forme particulière de travail institutionnel. La recherche permet aussi de relever les éléments fondateurs et structurants de la phase d’émergence d’un RTO spécifique, composé d’organisations sociales et solidaires.The article aims to shed light on new insights about the emergence stage of a specific cluster, composed of cultural associations. Exploring a single arts and associative cluster, our findings contribute to reduce the lack of research on this specific field by means of an original theoretical approach based on neo-institutional theory. We focus on different types of institutional work (Cloutier et al., 2016), as well as different roles endorsed by the territory (Lawrence and Dover, 2015), which were required to set up the specific cluster. The findings lead to the identification of territorial work as a specific form of institutional work.El objetivo del artículo es estudiar la creación de una Red Territorializada de Organizaciones pertenecientes a la Economía Social y Solidaria. A través de un enfoque neoinstitucional, en este trabajo se investigan las diferentes formas de trabajo institucional de los actores de esta red (Lawrence y Suddaby, 2006; Cloutier et al., 2016) al tiempo que se cuestionan los roles que desempeña el Territorio en este trabajo institucional (Lawrence y Dover, 2015). El estudio de RTO Anim'assos contribuye a los trabajos recientes sobre el trabajo institucional en un enfoque territorializado. Permite poner de relieve los elementos fundacionales y estructurales de la fase de creación de una RTO y, más concretamente, de una red de organizaciones sociales y solidarias

Co-creation for the Implementation of SDGs in a French Municipality

International audienceSDG 17 is all about strong partnerships and cooperation and is required for the achievement of all other SDGs. In that sense, collaborative policymaking is an important target for local public organizations in the European region. The case of Venelles, France, shows how sustainable practices can be promoted through the inclusion of local stakeholders in decision-making processes. As the smallest of only a handful of municipalities in France, in early 2021 Venelles has decided to co-create a local 2030 Agenda hand in hand with its inhabitants. Under the name of "Venelles in Transition," a series of workshops has been initiated, aiming to identify the SDGs that are important for the inhabitants and develop concrete propositions for their implementation. The aim is to analyze the co-creation process and discuss the following question: to what extent could co-creation spur the local implementation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals? As opposed to the paradigms structuring the public sector today, co-creation has participation and openness at its core and therefore breaks with established approaches to policymaking. Due to it being so different from existing decision-making processes, it requires public managers to master new skills. However, numerous obstacles remain and must be overcome, while activating the numerous drivers, to fully implement co-creation. This chapter aims to shed light on these elements through the example of "Venelles in Transition.
