15 December 2016 • Research Seminar La contribution du pluralisme juridique au développement du droit du travail en Nouvelle-Calédonie Nadège Meyer Université de la Nouvelle Calédonie Summary : L’indivisibilité, l’unité et l’égalité de la République française, État unitaire organisé sur le principe d’une seule organisation juridique et politique n’est plus ! La colonisation ayant eu pour conséquence d’annexer des territoires d’outre-mer à la République française a fait progressivement voler en éclat les fondements mêmes de l’État français en l’obligeant à prendre en considération la diversité socioculturelle qui la caractérise. Au fil du temps, la Constitution française de 1958 a intégré ces évolutions et consacre un Titre au statut sui generis tant politique que juridique reconnu à la Nouvelle-Calédonie. A cet égard, l’Etat français opère un transfert progressif de la compétence normative, tant législative que règlementaire, à la Nouvelle-Calédonie. Ainsi, le droit civil, commercial, fiscal, de la consommation, ou encore le droit du travail relèvent aujourd’hui de la compétence exclusive de la Nouvelle-Calédonie. Ce pluralisme juridique ne se cantonne pas au seul transfert d’une compétence normative à la Nouvelle-Calédonie. Il se double d’une reconnaissance et d’une intégration de la coutume kanak dans le corpus normatif contemporain. Les articles 75 de la Constitution et 7 de la loi organique du 19 mars 1999, disposent ainsi que « les personnes dont le statut personnel, […] est le statut civil coutumier kanak […] sont régies en matière de droit civil par leurs coutumes ». Après avoir affirmé que les relations de travail ne relèvent pas du droit civil et que le droit du travail constitue une branche du droit à part entière, émancipée du droit commun, la Cour de cassation en a déduit que les kanaks de statut civil coutumier sont soumis au Code du travail de la Nouvelle-Calédonie, applicable à tous les salariés et employeurs qui entrent dans son champ d’application. Même si la coutume ne régit pas les relations de travail, il n’en demeure pas moins que la population autochtone, ne vit pas exclusivement en tribu et occupe majoritairement un travail salarié. Pour des raisons évidentes de vivre ensemble, de paix sociale et d’efficacité économique, cette mixité importante de la diversité culturelle au sein des entreprises ne peut être niée ou négligée et nécessite au contraire une réelle prise en considération. Ainsi, malgré le refus de la Cour de cassation d’admettre le pluralisme juridique en droit du travail, il apparaît que celui-ci se traduit dans des pratiques d’entreprise en adaptant les conditions de travail, voire le lien d’emploi, à la diversité socioculturelle spécifique à la Nouvelle-Calédonie. |

2 December 2016 • Research Seminar Les recompositions du dialogue social en temps de crise. Une enquête auprès d'établissements français Élodie Béthoux & Annette Jobert IDHES, ENS Paris-Saclay Summary : À partir des données des enquêtes « Relations professionnelles et négociations d’entreprise » (REPONSE) 2004-2005 et 2010-2011 et d’enquêtes monographiques réalisées dans quinze établissements français aux relations sociales contrastées, cet conférence part du constat, à première vue paradoxal dans un contexte de crise, d’une intensification du dialogue social au niveau de l’entreprise. Interrogeant le sens et la portée de cette intensification, en partie liée aux développements de la « négociation administrée », les auteurs analyseront les recompositions actuelles des régulations de la relation d’emploi. Nous montrerons ainsi comment la difficulté accrue à mettre en débat les questions d’emploi observée face à la crise conduit à un repositionnement partiel et à un investissement croissant autour des enjeux de conditions de travail, qui contraste avec une implication routinière mais rarement stratégique sur la formation. Le contenu de cette présentation a fait l’objet d’une publication dans la Revue de l’IRES (N° 84 - 2015/1). |

25 November 2016 • Conference The future of work and non-standard forms of employment: understanding challenges, shaping prospects Manuela Tomei Director of the ILO's Conditions of Work and Employment Programme, International Labour Organization – Geneva This Conference was organized by the Interuniversity Research Centre on Globalization and Work and the Chaire en relations ethniques de l’Université de Montréal. Summary : “Non-standard forms of employment”, or “NSFE” have become a contemporary feature of labour markets around the world. Their overall importance has increased over the past few decades in both industrialized and developing countries, as their use has become more widespread across economic sectors and occupations. For some, working in NSE is an explicit choice and has positive outcomes. However, for most workers, employment in NSE is associated with insecurity. NSFE can also pose challenges for enterprises, the overall performance of labour markets and economies as well as societies at large. Supporting decent work for all requires an in-depth understanding of NSFE and its implications. The conference, based on a recent ILO publication, will detail trends and consequences of NSE and draws on international labour standards and national experience to advance policy recommendations that help to ensure protection of workers, sustainable enterprises and well-functioning labour markets. |

7 June 2016 • Research Seminar Employment Relations: Towards an internationally comparative framework of analysis Greg Bamber Monash University, Melbourne, Australia This paper discusses an internationally comparative approach to employment relations research. We start with the Varieties of Capitalism concept (VoC), and argue that it provides a useful initial framework for thinking about how to compare national employment relations systems. We reassess the VoC framework in light of the evidence summarised in the twelve country-specific chapters in the 6th (2016) edition of our book – International and Comparative Employment Relations. We argue that while our analyses provide evidence that supports aspects of the VoC approach, they also help to identify some of the limitations of this approach. We further illustrate these limitations by highlighting some of the increasing within-country differences that we found between countries, including the rise in non-standard work, dual patterns of employer coordination, and outsourcing and organisational fragmentation. This leads us to argue for an internationally-comparative approach that goes beyond simple models and that is capable of capturing a broader range of factors which reflect the connections between national economies as well as industry sector level features that shape employment relations.

10 May 2016 • Seminar Betwixt and Between: Working in hybrid organizational forms Eva Boxenbaum MINES ParisTech / Copenhagen Business School The transition to renewable energies represents a societal challenge that supposedly is so complex that any individual organization cannot address it alone. Hence, organizations increasingly engage in hybrid organizing to collectively address such challenges. This paper examines how employees and managers collaborate across the organizational divides of two heterogeneous firms that engage in hybrid organizing within the renewable energy sector. Qualitative data collected in real time, at an interval of two years, is mobilized to trace how organizational actors cope with working in a hybrid organizational constellation, and which organizational consequences it produces. |

9 December 2015 • Seminar Les réfugiés et le marché du travail dans la région de Montréal : entre admission et intégration Adèle Garnier CRIMT - University of Montreal L’intégration économique des réfugiés est présentement sous les feux de l’actualité canadienne et internationale. Ce séminaire se proposait d’explorer les liens entre l’admission des réfugiés au Canada et leur participation au marché du travail plusieurs années après leur arrivée dans la région de Montréal. Bien que les réfugiés soient considérés comme une catégorie de nouveaux arrivants particulièrement vulnérables du fait de leur émigration forcée, ils sont loin de constituer un groupe homogène. Il comportait d'abord une analyse comparative des profils socioéconomiques des trois principales catégories de réfugiés admis par le Canada, soit les réfugiés sélectionnés par le gouvernement, les refugies parrainés par le secteur privé, et les refugies reconnus après une demande d’asile. Se basant sur des entretiens réalisés avec des réfugiés et des intervenants en employabilité, il discutait ensuite des opportunités et obstacles que ces catégories de réfugiés rencontrent dans leur intégration sur le marché du travail à Montréal, dans les Laurentides et en Montérégie. Ce portrait a mis en évidence la complexité institutionnelle des liens entre admission au pays et intégration socioéconomique des réfugiés, et a permis de réfléchir sur la mobilité en tant que notion géographique, sociale et professionnelle. |

18 November 2015 • Seminar Class vs. Special Interest: Labor, Power, and Politics in the United States and Canada in the Twentieth Century Barry Eidlin McGill University Why are US labor unions so weak? Union decline has had important consequences for politics, inequality, and social policy. Common explanations cite employment shifts, public opinion, labor laws, and differences in working class culture and organization. But comparing the United States with Canada challenges those explanations. After following US unionization rates for decades, Canadian rates diverged in the 1960s, and are now nearly three times higher. This divergence was due to different processes of working class political incorporation. In the United States, labor was incorporated as an interest group into a labor regime governed by a pluralist idea. In Canada, labor was incorporated as a class representative into a labor regime governed by a class idea. This led to a relatively stronger Canadian labor regime that better held employers in check and protected workers’ collective bargaining rights. As a result, union density stabilized in Canada while plummeting in the United States. |

8 December 2014 • Seminar Capacités, évaluation et travail. Pour une sociologie évaluative du droit Jean De Munck Université Catholique de Louvain / CriDIS L’approche par les capacités d’Amartya Sen a ouvert une voie qui peut, heuristiquement, amener la sociologie à se repositionner dans le débat portant sur l’évaluation, et notamment l’évaluation du travail. D’un côté, les activités de valuation et d’évaluation peuvent être thématisées comme des objets empiriques d'un point de vue pragmatique; d’un autre côté, la portée évaluative du métalangage sociologique n’est pas refoulée mais explicitement thématisée. Cette approche conduit à d’intéressants prolongements en sociologie du droit. SSHRC-MCRI Project: 3.5 |

31 October 2014 • Seminar Solidarity Forever ... Aggregation makes us Strong: An Idea of Informal Workers’ Aggregation Supriya Routh CRIMT/Université Laval In this paper, I will discuss the nature and functioning of a few selected informal workers’ organizations, which are diverse in their legal statuses. By discussing the modus operandi of these organizations, I will argue that trade unionism as an organizational platform is losing its popularity and significance amongst informal workers. I will then offer an idea of network-based functionally unique organization of informal workers, which I will call workers’ aggregation. I will show that characteristically informal workers’ aggregation is constitutive of a small core nucleus of members and an outer cytoplasm of networks. I will argue that given the non-typical nature of informal work, it is through these workers’ aggregation that informal workers can enhance their strength and power to encounter the existing oppressive political-economic structures rather than only following the trade unionism route.

17 avril 2014 • Seminar Judiciarisation ou juridicisation du travail en France ? Jérôme Pélisse Co-directeur de GESTES / Membre du laboratoire PRINTEMPS Cette communication se proposera d’interroger les modalités par lesquelles le droit vient encadrer les relations professionnelles et structurer plus particulièrement les négociations et la conflictualité au travail en France depuis une vingtaine d’années. La juridicisation des relations sociales, désignant un recours accru au droit dans les interactions ordinaires des relations de travail, est en effet trop souvent confondue avec un phénomène de judiciarisation, entendue comme la saisie plus fréquente des tribunaux pour régler des conflits du travail. Ces deux processus sont pourtant à distinguer, tant se dressent entre eux les obstacles liés à l’activité de mobilisation du droit. Fondée sur des sources quantitatives (les enquêtes REPONSE) et qualitatives, l’analyse explorera les conditions sociales qui président à ces processus de juridicisation et judiciarisation. Nous cherchons en particulier à montrer l’importance de la structuration des collectifs de travail pour comprendre la place et les usages du droit dans les transformations des formes de conflits du travail contemporains.

31 October 2013 • Master Class Représentation collective : trajectoires d'acteurs, cheminement de chercheurs Christian Dufour CRIMT Christian Dufour Institut de recherches économiques et sociales (IRES) Christian Dufour and Adelheid Hege are recognized as leading experts in the field of union representation. Their comparative research on everyday collective representation – conducted as part of the scientific program of the Institut de recherches économiques et sociales (IRES) – has resulted in numerous publications on trade unionism and its renewal. This conference drew on long-term observations of labour relations and labour relations actors in the European context. Their extensive fieldwork has, over time, resulted in the development of a number of hypotheses about the sociological foundations of collective employee representation. These hypotheses continue to be refined and tested, especially in the face of profound changes that have occurred since the 1980s, not only within the actors’ environment, but also to the actors themselves. |

17 October 2013 • Research Seminar A Forgotten Cohort: Citizenship at Work and Persons with Disabilities Ron McCallum University of Sydney, Australia / CRIMT The 2011 World Health Organisation/World Bank report on disability showed that 15% of the world's population, approximately one billion people, are persons with disabilities. Approximately 80% live in developing countries, and in most nations disability is synonymous with poverty. One of the hallmarks of citizenship is employment or self-employment. Work not only enables us to earn remuneration to support ourselves and our families, but it enables us to contribute to the growth of our nation through the utilisation of our skills. Yet in countries like Canada and Australia, persons with disabilities are a forgotten cohort. This is because our levels of employment or of self-employment are far lower than is the case with other groups, except perhaps for first nations peoples. In a 2009 OECD background paper, it is noted that the employment rate of persons with disabilities and health problems in the thirteen countries under study was 40% which is slightly over half the general employment participation rate which was close to 75%. Not until the levels of employment and of self-employment are improved for persons with disabilities will most disabled persons attain full and meaningful citizenship. In this presentation, first, I shall examine article 27 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) which exhorts governments to implement programs to facilitate the undertaking of work in the open labour market by persons with disabilities. Second, as a Vice-Chairperson and the immediate past Chairperson of the United Nations Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD Committee), I will detail the experiences of this monitoring body on the employment of persons with disabilities. Finally, a brief exploration of the work undertaken by the ILO on the employment of persons with disabilities will be undertaken. In particular, the ILO Convention 159 on Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment (Disabled Persons) 1983, and the Code of Practice – Managing Disability in the Workplace, 2001, will be discussed.

4 June 2013 • Research Workshop Sub-national economies and global capitalism: a comparative analysis of regional governance of FDI Phil Almond De Montfort University, Royaume-Uni Summary: In the context of the competitive global fragmentation of production of contemporary capitalism, this paper examines how governance actors at sub-national regional levels have constructed responses to the international competition for FDI. It is based on intensive qualitative comparative research across eight sub-national regions in four advanced industrialised economies - Canada, Ireland, Spain, and the UK - which, to varying degrees, have economies in which FDI plays an important role. It draws on interviews with both governance actors, and subsidiary unit managers in regionally important multinational corporations. It finds significant differences in governance patterns both within and between nations. These are shaped both by the broad nature of economic coordination, particularly the contrast between liberal and social democrat variants of capitalism, and by the nature of territorial political arrangements within nation states. Our results suggest that those governance systems that have benefitted from a degree of political consensus, and where there are clear interlocutors between the subsidiary units of MNCs and the public realm, have a greater chance of potentially creating positive outcomes. Foreign MNC engagement with regional institutions tends to occur mainly at points where the subsidiary unit is involved in international contests for investment, and is relatively restrained outside this. There is no indication that local managers of foreign MNCs perceive more coordinated regional variants of capitalism more negatively than more liberal variants. SSHRC-MCRI Project : 5.3.3 |

10 May 2013 • CRIMT-CRSDD Seminar Penser l’entreprise comme institution aujourd’hui – L’apport de la sociologie Denis Segrestin Universités à Sciences Po (Paris) Centre de sociologie des organisations (CSO) Summary: L’entreprise peut-elle être observée comme une institution sociale ? Nous l’avons affirmé en d’autres temps, alors que l’on pouvait déceler les signes de la « réhabilitation de l’entreprise » dans la société. Nous le réaffirmons aujourd’hui, en dépit d’une conjoncture adverse dans laquelle la firme est soupçonnée d’avoir sacrifié à la fois sa « forme » et son « âme ». A cette fin, nous remontons aux sources de la théorie de la firme : par-delà le couple hiérarchie / marché, on y retrouve le fil rouge d’une analyse qui postule la nature foncièrement sociale de l’activité économique. Toute une série de questions-clés resurgissent : la singularité des échanges dans l’entreprise en réseau ; l’attachement des firmes à des « régimes » particuliers du capitalisme ; les enjeux politiques sous-jacents au contrôle des firmes. Poursuivant sur cette voie, on réalise qu’il reste bien des « ressorts » à l’entreprise-institution d’aujourd’hui. This seminar was jointly organized by CRIMT and the Social Responsiblity and Sustainable Development Resarch Chair (CRSDD) at ESG UQAM. Deliverables Media Library |

25 March 2013 • CRIMT Seminar Given that Capitalist Exploitation in Work and Employment Continues, How Are Workers Responding? Gregor Gall Bradford University School of Management, Royaume-Uni A survey of how workers are responding to continued exploitation and oppression suggests that there is limited innovation in forms and expression of conflict at work in the global north. Consequently, the efficacy of defending and advancing is declining. By contrast, in the global south workers are learning and deploying not only the historical tactics of workers in the global north but also developing some new techniques and tactics. This suggest that the direction of knowledge should be from the south to the north in the transnational workers' movement. SSHRC-MCRI Project : 4.4 Deliverables Media Library |

23 November 2012 • Research Seminar Legal Pluralism and Globalization Jean-Guy Belley McGill University Summary: Nous sommes nombreux à partager l'intuition d'une affinité élective entre 'mondialisation' et 'pluralisme juridique' ( P.J. ). Mais il y a plusieurs manières de comprendre et de problématiser cette affinité. À partir de la sociologie, le P.J. se conçoit comme la manifestation d' une crise radicale du droit moderne induite par la mondialisation. À partir de la science juridique, la mondialisation se conçoit, à l'inverse , comme le produit de la mobilisation du droit moderne portée au niveau mondial. À partir du droit public, le P.J. est celui des sources formelles ou informelles de droit objectif promues ou reconnues par les institutions étatiques et interétatiques. À partir du droit privé, le P.J. est celui des modes de création des droits subjectifs par et pour les opérateurs transnationaux; il est impulsé notamment par une extension et une adaptation des techniques du contrat et de la personnalité morale. Techniciens de l'ombre ou intellectuels organiques, les juristes qui se mettent au service des acteurs de la mondialisation sont les nouvelles élites de la pratique et de la théorie du droit. À leurs yeux, le P.J. n'est plus une hétérodoxie sociale, mais la nouvelle orthodoxie de la science du droit. SSHRC-MCRI Project : 3.5.1 Deliverables Media Library |

12 November 2012 • Research Seminar The German Labour Market After The Financial Crisis: Miracle or just a good policy mix? Gerhard Bosch University Duisburg-Essen Institute for Work, Skills and Training, Germany In the wake of the financial crisis, the German economy experienced its most severe slump since the Second World War. However, the effects on the labour market were different from those experienced in all other previous economic crises. Employment did not decline as expected and unemployment did not rise. Moreover, youth unemployment did not increase, in contrast to experience in virtually all other European countries. This paper sets out to investigate this German employment ‘miracle’. It will be shown that state-subsidised short-time working arrangements were not alone in preventing a collapse in unemployment but that a key role was also played by several other working time instruments incorporated into collective agreements concluded between trade unions and employers. Nor should the role of the parties to collective bargaining in avoiding an increase in youth unemployment be overlooked either. “Dismissing hours and not workers” a recession can maintain production potential and speficic skills, avoid long-term scar effects of unemployment, reduce excessive demands on labour market policy through a massive increase in unemployment, and strengthens social cohesion.

18 October 2012 • Research Seminar The Shop Steward in the Danish Industrial Relations Model: A flawless change from centralization to decentralization of the collective bargaining system Steen E. Navrbjerg University of Copenhagen, Denmark The shop steward is a corner stone of the Danish Industrial Relations (IR) model. Shop stewards are the main drivers for cooperation at the company level and the importance of the role of the shop steward has further increased in the context of the decentralization of collective bargaining. Recruiting and retaining shop stewards can be seen to be an increasing problem. This is the case in many countries. In Denmark, the job of steward is ever more demanding as the process of decentralization has enhanced the scope of issues to be negotiated at work place level. On top of that, shop stewards can experience a loss of members from traditional union to "yellow" (employer-dependent) unions. Moreover, new forms of often international ownership, with limited or no understanding of local industrial relations institutions and traditions, exert increasing pressure on the often nationally based bargaining and cooperation culture. Our study of shop stewards, spanning the period from 1998 to 2010, reveals that Danish shop stewards are more satisfied with their job today than 12 years ago – despite the fact that the job has become more challenging! This seminar will present the Danish model of Industrial Relations and show how the Danish industrial relations system has managed to change from a centralized to a decentralized system, without losing shop stewards’ interest and motivation in the process. Part of the explanation is a gradual but progressive change in the IR system at all levels. Employers’ organizations and unions, through collective bargaining, solve a major part of labour market challenges, with the state limited to the provision of a framework for these negotiations, in most instances at least. This makes the social partners ‘owners’ of most of the rules pertaining to labour market issues. However, there are threats to the system. Yellow unions have recently expanded, to the extent that they now organize 10 per cent of the labour force, thus weakening the traditional unions. While these yellow unions are a challenge – or rather a nuisance - at the work-place level, at the central level, employers’ organizations seem to have no interest in dealing with these new unions since they do not deliver viable contributions to solving the challenges of the welfare state. As such, the state also seems to have limited interest in cooperating with yellow unions. SSHRC-MCRI Project: 4.4 Deliverables Media Library |

9 October 2012 • Research Seminar Strategic HRM in Multinational Corporations: When Practice Meets Theory Dana Minbaeva Copenhagen Business School, Denmark This presentation put emphasis on strategy implementation as the focal construct in strategic HRM. It started with a discussion of HR-related challenges multinational corporations (MNCs) are facing in the dynamic and highly competitive global marketplace. Then, focusing on global talent management, it explained how the fit between the global HR architecture and the strategic business processes can enhance the effectiveness of MNCs’ strategic responses to the identified challenges. The presentation also discussed the role of the corporate HR function in strategy-making, focusing on its role in orchestrating of both top-down communication of strategic intent across MNCs and bottom-up autonomous responses adapting the intent to local circumstances and conditional changes.

18 April 2012 • Research Seminar Multinational Corporations and “Embeddedness”: Global, National and Local Perspectives Phil Almond De Montfort University, United-Kingdom Attempts to analyse the complex relations between international firms and employment systems at various geographical levels often depend on some notion of embeddedness. The meaning of this, however, varies, from local/regional attempts at anchoring foreign investors within a territory, through work on MNCs' interactions with national business and employment systems, to discussions of MNCs' role within global capitalism. Drawing on research projects looking at MNC's interactions with regional and national actors and institutions over a number of years, this seminar attempts to map various levels and types of embeddedness (and disembeddedness), with a view to identifying practical directions for future empirical research. |

11 April 2012 • Master Class Thinking about social regulation : theoretical and practical issues Christian Thuderoz INSA-Lyon, France (Still) thinking about social regulation (negotiation), 50 years after Walton and McKersie and Allan Flanders, 30 years after Howard Raiffa and Bill Zartman: is it useful? Yes, because it establishes a rational-negotiated (and more efficient) model of decision-making at a time when traditional hierarchical institutions are in decline, the demands for employees to participate in decisions concerning their lives and work are increasing and it is becoming urgent to rethink work and its institutions in light of new social regulations which bring about new and more intense arrangements. We must, therefore, think about this (negotiated) re-written landscape of how we live together within the business organization. What theoretical tools do we apply? To achieve what kind of changes? How do we equip the actors? Christian Thuderoz and Reynauld Bourque, both CRIMT co-researchers, are the authors of Sociologie de la négociation (2011), published by Presses Universitaires de Rennes.

24 November 2011 • Research Seminar Jumping Scale, Crossing Space: The JfJ and Organizing Cleaners for Global Strength Luis LM Aguiar Sociology, University of British Columbia, Okanagan, British Columbia Arguably neoliberalism has done the most damage to the already vulnerable workforces in the economy. Building cleaners, as part of this workforce, have suffered from privatization, contracting out, as well as post-industrial labour legislation and the fiscal crisis of the welfare state. The result is a sweatshop citizenship (Aguiar 2006) bordering on ‘advanced marginality’ (Wacquant 2008) threatening to permanently expulse cleaners (and other low wage workers) to the desertion fields of (neo)neoliberalism (Crouch 2011; Boltanski and Chiapello 2004; Bauman 2007; Agamben 2005). To counter this assault on cleaners, the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) has globalized its justice for janitors organizing model for the purpose of building global strength to deal with the neoliberalism of global cleaning companies, and in the process, secure protection and achieve gains for cleaners everywhere. Is the justice for janitors (JfJ) model the model for organizing in the 21st century? How is this model transitioning into transnational organizing and places, and by what mechanisms and structures is this being done, is the focus of this seminar. Luis Aguiar will examine (1) the JfJ model, (2) mechanisms and structures of transnational organizing and (3) the meaning of partnerships between the SEIU and partner unions (e.g. FNV Bondgenoten in the Netherlands; LHMU in Australia [and perhaps the SIPTU in Ireland]) set-up to arrest the erosion of cleaners’ rights and stymie the proliferation of the sweatshop citizenship status. Through interviews at the SEIU HQ in Washington, as well as fieldwork in Australian, and Amsterdam, the author seeks to understand the flexibility of the JfJ model and the meaning of partnership in the context of a union with global ambitions. This presentation will end by discussing the idea of “solidarity transformed” (Anner 2011), and the extent to which the SEIU’s globalizing of the JfJ is an example of this concept.

5 & 8 April 2011 • Research Seminars Organizing Independent Contractors: The Impact of Competition Law Shae McCrystal University of Sydney, Australia Held at both Université Laval (5 April) and the University of Montreal (8 April), this research seminar was organized in collaboration with the Faculty of Law and the Department of Industrial Relations at Université Laval, and the Faculty of Law and School of Industrial Relations at the University of Montreal. Summary: ILO Convention Nos. 87 and 98 guarantee the rights of workers to organise and to engage in voluntary collective bargaining. The protections in these Conventions expressly apply to ‘workers’, not just to workers who labour under a contract of employment. In Australia, the right to engage in collective bargaining has conventionally only been granted to employed workers, with all other workers subject to competition laws which make collective bargaining unlawful. Under Australian competition laws there is an exemption process which permits groups of ‘small businesses’ to seek permission to bargain collectively from the Australian competition regulator. As independent contractors are small businesses for this purpose, they are able to use this process to seek permission to engage in collective bargaining with a defined target. The operation of this exemption process in practice offers an interesting insight into how the arguments traditionally used to justify collective bargaining by employee workers fare when considered by competition regulators questioning whether or not independent contractors should be allowed to bargain collectively. This seminar provided an introduction to Australian laws, as well as examples of the operation of the Australian competition provisions. The authors was particularly interested in how the Australian approach to this issue compared with the Canadian regulation of independent and dependent contractors. How does Canadian competition law impact upon the capacity to organise contractors and what is the role of the competition regulator? Are all such matters better left to labour law regulation and how does the recognition of dependent contractors in Canada impact on this issue?

11 March 2011 • Research Seminar La place de la négociation collective dans six pays européens : de la cohérence des systèmes à la construction des acteurs Christian Dufour Associate Researcher, CRIMT Adelheid Hege Institut de recherches économiques et sociales (IRES), France / CRIMT This research seminar was held at the University of Montreal. Summary (French only): Au cours des vingt-cinq dernières années, des transformations profondes ont affecté les organisations syndicales et leur place dans les sociétés au sein desquelles elles sont nées. Les environnements économiques ont été bouleversés et les anciennes cohérences identitaires se sont étiolées. La négociation collective, activité centrale des syndicalismes quelle que soit la diversité des approches et des agencements à l’œuvre, ne pouvait qu'en être affectée. À la demande de la CFDT et de la CGT en France, et pour l'Institut de Recherches Économiques et Sociales (IRES), Christian Dufour et Adelheid Hege viennent de compléter une étude sur l’évolution des stratégies de négociation collective mises en œuvre par des organisations syndicales de six pays européens (Allemagne, Espagne, France, Grande-Bretagne, Italie, Suède). Ce séminaire visait la présentation de résultats d'enquêtes combinant un travail de synthèse des grands changements intervenus au cours des 25 dernières années, avec une approche de terrain fondée sur des enquêtes auprès d'acteurs collectifs.

8 November 2010 • Research Seminar Blindness in the History and in the Law Ron McCallum University of Sydney, Australia / CRIMT Held at the University of Montreal, this research seminar was organized in collaboration with the Faculty of Law at the University of Montreal. Summary: This seminar's subject was twofold, blindness in history, and blindness in law. Ron presented a number of blind persons who have played important roles in the history of our world. As a blind lawyer, in the final portion of this narration, he commented on several outstanding blind lawyers and unpacked two landmark legal decisions dealing with with blind people. Ron has chosen this topic to increase the awareness of how blind people have contributed to the history of our world. As a blind lawyer himself, this was also an opportune forum to recount the stories of some blind lawyers, as well as the stories of several blind persons whose litigation has developed two legal precedents. Before embarking upon this task, however, Ron said a few words about why, so late in his life, he has sought to search for his origins as a member of the blind community who have peopled our world ever since human beings first came to life.

1 November 2010 • Research Seminar Power, Institutions and the Cross-National Transfer of Employment Practices within Multinationals Anthony Ferner De Montfort University, United-Kingdom / CRIMT This research seminar was held at HEC Montréal. Summary: This seminar proposed an approach to the transfer of practices within multinational companies (MNCs) based on an integration of the neoinstitutionalist work of Kostova and others (e.g. Kostova 1999; Kostova & Roth 2002) with more comparative institutionalist traditions, and with a more explicit and elaborated account of the exercise of power in the transfer process. It is argued that, while valuable in its development of ideas of institutional duality, the neoinstitutionalist conceptualization of transfer has a number of limitations. First, it neglects to locate institutional duality within a broader context of the dynamics of the global economy. Second, its notion of the national institutional terrain is in need of refinement to take account of intra-national institutional heterogeneity and dynamic evolution. Third, neoinstitutionalists neglect the role of power, and the deployment of power resources by actors at different levels, in the process of transfer. Finally, the neoinstitutionalists’ fruitful distinction between the implementation and internalization of transferred practices needs to be supplemented by a more nuanced consideration of adaptation and ‘hybridization’ of practices in the host institutional context. Proceeding by means of a set of ‘provocations’ (cf. Kostova et al. 2008) and ‘propositions’, the author suggested ways in which these limitations could be addressed. SSHRC-MCRI Project(s): 1.1 |

30 October 2010 • Research Seminar Venture Labour: Knowledge Work and Risks in the New Economy Gina Neff University of Washington, USA Held that Saint-Mary's University, this research seminar wasorganized in collaboration with the Office of the Vice-President Academic, the Dean Sobey School of Business, the PhD Program of the Sobey School of Business and the Visiting Speakers Program at Saint Mary's University. Summary: Modern life is more precarious due in large part to the lack of job security provided by contemporary jobs. There are growing ranks of part-time workers, freelancers, independent contractors, and the self-employed. This seminar explored why people accept riskier work and how they are adapting, especially within technology industries. Gina Neff examined what she call "Venture Labor" – the investment of financial, human, and social capital that ordinary employees make in the companies they work using a case study from the early pioneers of the commercial Internet.

Dynamiques institutionnelles et mobilisations collectives Claude Didry Laboratoire Institutions et dynamiques historiques (IDHE) ENS - Cachan, France This research seminar was held at the University of Montreal. Summary (French only): Les restructurations apparaissent actuellement comme des processus diffus, récurrents et complexes de réorganisation affectant l'entreprise dans sa recherche de flexibilité et d'avantages compétitifs. Mays, par rapport à la gestion courante du changement, les restructurations prennent un relief particulier en raison de leur ampleur, de l'intensité des conflits auxquels elles donnent lieu et de leurs conséquences sociales, notamment en termes d'emplois. Elles constituent des événements qui impliquent les dirigeants de l'entreprise, les représentants des salariés et, au-delà, l'ensemble du personnel. Les instances de représentation des salariés (syndicats, comités d'entreprise…) constituent alors un lieu privilégié de débats pour envisager l'avenir, face à des opérations de réductions d'effectifs, de filialisation, d'externalisation ou de fusion, qui mettent en question la réalité de l'entreprise elle-même. Dans une perspective comparative, l'auteur a montré que l'existence même de restructurations dépend de « règles du jeu » instituant un espace de débats, qui prennent des formes diverses selon les continents (Europe, Amérique du Nord), Mays aussi en fonction des entreprises et des territoires. Il a également accordé une attention particulière à une expérience innovante de négociation d'entreprise qui s'est développée, en France, dans le cadre des restructurations ayant précédé la crise de 2008.

14 May 2010 • Research Seminar Setting the Record Straight About International Labour Standard Setting Anne Trebilcock Conseillère académique au Centre de droit international de l'Université de Paris Ouest Nanterre, La Défense et ancienne conseillère juridique de l'Organisation internationale du travail (OIT) Held at the University of Montreal, this research seminar was organized in collaboration with the Faculty of Law at the University of Montreal. Summary: In Imagining Post "Geneva Consensus" Labor Law for Post "Washington Consensus" Development, Brian Langille renders a useful service by reviewing contemporary thinking in the field of development and prodding reflection on its possible implications for national and international labor law. I would certainly agree with his remarks that there is no trade-off between the political economy of decency and efficiency, that the ILO Constitution is an instrument that opens the door to many possibilities, and that labor law is not (inherently) limited to employees. However, his analysis of the genesis of international labor standards and their use widely misses the mark. In essence, to make his point he sets up and knocks down a strawman. He paints a broadbrush picture that does not accurately represent important features of the system, including an appreciation of the different roles played by the ILO's governing structures and the ILO secretariat. In the process, he reMayns closed to seeing the relevance that ILO standards can have to development. A more nuanced analysis of the content of such standards in light of labor market trends and the need for a balanced globalization would be a more productive path to follow. His plea for principles over rules ignores the fact that we already have a number of principles, and that on their own, they are clearly insufficient.

Des actions visibles de résistance collective sont menées dans un contexte de survie (Amossé et al., 2008), donnant lieu à des conflits « défensifs » (Groux et Pernot, 2008) qui sont souvent intenses. À l'occasion de ce séminaire tenu à HEC Montréal, Rachel Beaujolin-Bellet a traité de la façon dont s’organise cette résistance et, plus spécifiquement, du travail d’animation du conflit des entrepreneurs militants.

5 November 2009 • Research Seminar Constitutionalizing Labour Rights: Paradox, Peril and Promise Judy Fudge University of Victoria, Canada / CRIMT Held at the University of Montreal, this seminar was organized in collabroation with the Faculty of Law at the University of Montreal. Bien que portant sur la réalité européenne, la discussion a permis une remise en contexte du cas canadien. Summary: In 2007, in Health Services and Support – Facilities Subsector Bargaining Association v. British Columbia, the Supreme Court of Canada expressly overruled twenty years of jurisprudence that interpreted the freedom of association as excluding collective bargaining. In 2008, in Demir and Baykara v Turkey, the European Court of Human Rights followed suit and overruled its earlier decisions on the matter to hold that the right to freedom of association in the European Convention on Human Rights includes collective bargaining. The recent successes before courts have led some observers to suggest that it may now be a propitious time for a co-ordinated and proactive litigation strategy to vindicate labour's collective rights. In this presentation, Judy considered what gave rise to these remarkable decisions and what they portend for the role of the courts in labour relations in Canada and beyond.

29 October 2009 • Research Seminar Les relations industrielles en Europe Centro-Orientale: fin ou extension du modèle social européen ? Guglielmo Meardi Warwick Business School University of Warwick, United-Kingdom This research workshop was held at HEC Montréal. Summary: This presentation outlined the main points of an in-progress book (Where Workers Vote with Their Feet), which elaborates ideas first presented in some earlier articles, based on a decade of fieldwork in Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovenia. It first described the emergence of a new Central Eastern European 'model' of industrial relations, combining relatively high degrees of state regulation with disorganized industrial relations, and then discussed the implications of EU accession, in terms of regulations, 'social dumping', transnational effects and consequences for the EU as a whole. It ended with an argument as to whether a system so far based on marketisation and employee 'exit' logic (migration, absenteeism, organisational disloyalty) can develop new forms of employee 'voice'.

6 October 2009 • Research Seminar Struggles on the Frontier of Control over Professional Identity: Leading Cases from Canada Larry Haiven St-Mary's University, Canada / CRIMT This research workshop was held at the University of Montreal. Summary: Professions and unions have often been positioned as opposing alternatives or logics of action in labour theory. The professions embrace a spirit of individualism and mystique, privileged by a social status, while unions are collectivist and seek respect and to usurp power from a dominant class. How might we reconcile the professions and their increasing efforts to achieve collective bargaining in the workplace? The author proposed that collective representation of professions is not an indication of the ultimate decline of professions in bureaucratized workplaces, but rather is the expression of a new arena of power for labour playing itself out at the forefront of work regulation in Canada. A sample of labour disputes of professionalized workers, illustrates that collective bargaining is an occupational closure strategy that alters the boundaries of a profession in an attempt to Mayntain distinct professional identity. Each case highlights the struggle over the exercise of discretion within the professional doMayn through which the boundaries regulating professional work are being rewritten.

Comment rendre compte de cette complexité ? Quelles sont les approches théoriques et méthodologiques les plus pertinentes qui puissent permettre d'aborder la question de la gouvernance multi-niveaux ? L'atelier a permis d'explorer les trois pistes suivantes : 1) Qu'entend-on par gouvernance multi-niveaux ? Comment définir le concept ? Quelles en sont les principales dimensions? 2) Quelles sont les principales approches théoriques qui permettent d'aborder le thème de la gouvernance multi-niveaux? Quels sont les principaux points de convergence et de divergence entre ces approches? Quelles sont les principales hypothèses à l'appui de ces approches? Existe-t-il des auteurs incontournables? 3) Quels sont les enjeux et les défis méthodologiques associés à l'approche axée sur la gouvernance multi-niveaux? Trois chapitres étaient à l'étude afin d'alimenter la discussion, : les chapitres 1 et 3 de Paul Marginson et Keith Sisson (2004) European Integration and Industrial Relations, Palgrave / Macmillan: Basingstoke et le chapitre 2 de Gary Marks et Liesbet Hooghe (2004) Constrating Visions of Multi-level Governance, dans Ian Bache et Matthew Flinders (Eds.), Multi-level Governance, Oxford University Press.

Contribution à l'étude de la responsabilité sociale de l'entreprise Céline Etre, PhD Researcher Université d'Avignon et des Pays de Vaucluse, France / CRIMT Summary (French only): Tenu à l'Université de Montréal, cet atelier visait à discuter des enjeux juridiques soulevés par les codes de conduite, chartes et autres “principes d’action”. Quelle est leur valeur juridique ? Constituent-ils des "normes" ? Quelle est leur place dans notre système ? Les salariés, les partenaires économiques, les actionnaires, les consommateurs et plus largement les pouvoirs publics peuvent-ils engager une action en justice à l’encontre de la firme ou de sa filiale en invoquant ces règles éthiques? Devant qui ? Et sur quelle base ? À ces questions, le droit positif français apporte quelques réponses juridiques pertinentes. Mays à bien y réfléchir, l’intérêt du sujet n’est pas de se contenter de répondre sèchement à un semblable chapelet d’interrogations. Bien plus profondément, l'intérêt réside dans une étude des bénéfices potentiels de ces textes sur le droit positif. Ainsi faut-il tirer des conclusions de l’insuffisance flagrante du droit positif à rendre pleinement compte de la profusion et de l’influence réelle des textes éthiques dans le milieu des affaires et du droit social.

7 October 2008 • Research Seminar Employee Voice in Multinational Companies: do Country of Origin Effects Matter? Paul Marginson University of Warwick, United-Kingdom / CRIMT Summary (French only): À la jonction des thèmes 1 et 5 du programme de recherche du CRIMT, ce séminaire (tenu à l'University of Montreal) traitait de la question de la prise de parole ouvrière et des effets qu'exerce sur celle-ci le pays d'origine des entreprises multinationales (EMNs). Selon leur pays d'origine, les EMNs exprimeraient des préférences contrastées en matière de prise de parole ouvrière : représentation syndicale, non-syndicale ou absence de représentation ; mécanismes directs et/ou indirects de consultation et de communication auprès des salariés. Ces préférences feraient écho aux régimes nationaux de relations industrielles propres aux pays dans lesquels réside le siège social des entreprises multinationales concernées. Certaines études récentes tendent aussi à considérer d'autres facteurs pouvant expliquer les préférences des entreprises multinationales, notamment le secteur, l'âge de la filiale et la stratégie corporative. En se basant sur les résultats d'une vaste enquête par questionnaires auprès des entreprises multinationales opérant au United-Kingdom, Paul Marginson s'est attardé à la mesure des effets qu'exerce le pays d'origine des entreprises multinationales sur leurs pratiques en matière de prise de parole ouvrière. À titre d'économie de marché libérale dotée d'institutions plutôt permissives en matière de relations industrielles, le United-Kingdom laisse passablement de latitude aux entreprises multinationales quant aux choix des pratiques. La recherche suggère toutefois que les effets qu'exerce le pays d'origine sont atténués par d'autres facteurs, et que plusieurs innovations récentes caractérisent le développement des pratiques de prise de parole ouvrière dans les établissements des entreprises multinationales au United-Kingdom.

Répondant à la nécessité de construire des analyses et des instruments qui permettent la mise en place de mécanismes d'anticipation des restructurations, le projet AgirE s'est intéressé au rôle des politiques européennes dans la structuration des conditions d'anticipation, tout en faisant la lumière sur le jeu des acteurs de l'entreprise et du territoire dont les dynamiques conduisent à de nouvelles pratiques centrées sur l'idée d'innovation pour une meilleure anticipation et conduite du changement. Idée force : c'est en intégrant systématiquement les niveaux d'action de l'entreprise, du territoire et des politiques (régional, national et européen) en une approche multidimensionnelle, multiniveaux et multiacteurs que sur le plan de la recherche, la construction d'une typologie qui tienne compte des interdépendances complexes présentes dans les processus de restructuration devient possible, et que sur le plan de l'action et des politiques, l'adéquation à la complexité des processus de restructuration peut être atteinte.

8 May 2008 • Research Seminar Quelle est la place des réseaux sociaux dans les activités d'innovation ? Réflexions à partir de deux enquêtes récentes Michel Grossetti Université de Toulouse le Mirail, France Summary (French only): Quel que soit l'angle sous lequel on l'aborde, l'innovation apparaît comme une activité collective qui implique des collaborations, des échanges et des relations interpersonnelles. La place prépondérante de ces relations peut s'expliquer par le fait que, par bien des aspects, les activités d'innovation se rapprochent des activités artisanales ou du marché du travail : faible standardisation, importance des relations personnelles, effets de proximité spatiale. Les dispositifs de communication qui structurent largement les échanges marchands pour les produits de grande consommation jouent ici un rôle moins central. Pourtant, tout ne passe pas par les relations interpersonnelles dans les activités d'innovation. Interviennent aussi ce que l'on peut appeler des «ressources de médiation», c'est-à-dire des ressources qui permettent aux acteurs de se coordonner sans passer par des relations personnelles. À l'occasion de ce séminaire, l'auteur a discuté de ces notions en s'appuyant sur deux études empiriques, l'une portant sur les relations entre laboratoires académiques et entreprises et l'autre sur la création d'entreprises innovantes. Ces études permettent d'évaluer l'importance relative des réseaux et des ressources de médiation dans les processus d'innovation, Mays surtout d'analyser la façon dont ils interagissent.

10 April 2008 • Research Seminar Does China Have a Labour Movement? Prospects for Industrial Relations Reform in China Bill Taylor City University of Hong Kong Summary: The official representative organisation of labour, the All China Federation of Trade Unions (ACFTU) looks set to regain its position within the core membership of the ILO. This has been hotly debated in the international trade union movement because the ACFTU is not a labour union. This seminar outlined the reasons why the ACFTU, despite its progressive elements, fails the union test. This was illustrated through examples of union organising strategies, collective agreement procedures and recent legislative successes. As a conclusion,the author made a case that including the ACFTU would be a significant step in the road of eroding the meaning of labour movements internationally.

14 February 2008 • Research Seminar Vers des relations industrielles supranationales ? Le cas du dialogue social européen Evelyne Léonard Université catholique de Louvain, Belgique Summary (French only): L'internationalisation du monde du travail soulève de nombreuses questions concernant la régulation des relations de travail, et notamment celle de la possibilité de concevoir des formes de régulation collective au plan supranational. Les débats et recherches sur les accords-cadres internationaux, sur les comités d'entreprise européens, sur la coordination transfrontalière des négociations, et sur le dialogue social européen s'inscrivent dans ce cadre. L'Institut des Sciences du Travail, à l'Université catholique de Louvain, effectue depuis dix ans une série de recherches sur le dialogue social européen au plan sectoriel. Celui-ci prend forme, concrètement, dans les comités de dialogue social sectoriel européen, qui existent sous leur forme actuelle depuis 1998 et couvrent maintenant plus de trente secteurs, allant de la banque à la chimie ou du transport par route au travail intérimaire. Les articles 138 et 139 maintenant inscrits dans le Traité de la Communauté européenne confèrent à ces comités, outre un rôle consultatif, la capacité de négocier et de conclure des accords. Les interlocuteurs sociaux qui y participent peuvent ensuite choisir de mettre en oeuvre les textes conjoints sur lesquels ils s'accordent, soit par le biais d'une décision du Conseil européen, soit par les procédures propres aux interlocuteurs sociaux et aux États membres. Les interlocuteurs sociaux européens ont donc acquis, formellement, la possibilité de définir des normes et de les appliquer dans les pays de l'UE27. Cependant, leur fonctionnement effectif se révèle bien complexe et parsemé d'embûches. Comment, par exemple, les comités peuvent-ils représenter les fédérations syndicales et patronales sectorielles de 27 Etats membres qui ont des systèmes de relations collectives extrêmement disparates, alors même qu'un même secteur d'activité recouvre des réalités socio-économiques hétérogènes dans les 27 pays? Comment, par ailleurs, transformer des engagements pris au plan européen en pratiques effectives dans les entreprises des États membres? Autant de question auxquelles cherchait à répondre ce séminaire de recherche tenu à HEC Montréal. SSHRC-MCRI Project(s): 5.4 Promotional Material Poster |

11 December 2006 • Research Workshop Industrial Relations as Critical Realism: Beyond a Do-it-Yourself Ontology Paul K. Edwards University of Warwick, United-Kingdom / CRIMT Summary (en anglais seulement) : Industrial relations (IR) is often accused of being atheoretical. Yet there has been a tradition of tacit theorizing that links IR to an important strand of social science theory, institutional analysis. There are further connections to the philosophy of science laid out in critical realism (CR). Paul Edwards argued that these connections need to be made more explicit and that a programme of IR research based on them can then be developed. The connections were first identified by laying out the core principles of CR and institutional analysis and the implications for IR. Illustrations of IR research that are consistent with CR were then indicated. The work of the leading CR theorist, Tony Lawson, was addressed: Lawson offers a CR-based perspective on a key issue, the UK productivity record, but his view is in fact insufficiently based in CR, and use of IR research can suggest a richer account. Finally, a comparative research programme was sketched. It reflected the need for IR to pursue its links with sociology and political science, with rather less emphasis on the relationship with labour economics, which has traditionally defined the field. Held at the University of Montreal, this research workshop was organized in collaboration with the School of Industrial Relations at the University of Montreal.

14 November 2006 • Research Seminar Building Integration into Strategic Planning across Organizational Boundaries Julia Balogun Cass Business School, United-Kingdom Summary: Despite calls for organizations to globalize by seeking economies of scale and scope whilst still delivering local differentiation, we know little about how organizations re-shape country-based strategy development mechanisms to achieve integration, whilst retaining some element of local tailoring. To examine this issue we track the development of a new strategic planning process within the European division of a branded consumer goods manufacturer, seeking to deliver greater integration in strategy and marketing practice across Europe, for a period of a year. To explore this integrated yet distributed planning process we conceive of strategizing as a multi-community activity of knowledge sharing and transformation occurring through within-community perspective making and across-community perspective taking. This directs attention to the nature of boundaries between communities, the processes of interaction that occur within and across these boundaries, and integration mechanisms such as boundary objects. By focusing on the breakdowns and breakthroughs in the negotiation of the new strategic plans we find that perspective making and taking are important but insufficient categories for conceptualizing boundaries and boundary objects at times of change when novelty is high. We suggest that perspective giving and importing are relevant extensions in such contexts because of power asymmetries introduced by change, and that are less apparent in other contexts more typically used to study knowledge distribution and transformation, such as NPD. This seminar ended with a discussion of the contributions this make to understanding breakdowns and breakthroughs in knowledge transformation, the role of boundary objects, and delivering integration in strategic planning. This research seminar was held at HEC Montréal. SSHRC-MCRI Project(s): n/a Promotional Material Poster |

La fréquence de ces clauses, de même que des exemples de langage contractuel tirés de ces conventions ont été présentés. La typologie des pratiques innovatrices comprend les innovations dans les rapports entre les parties, le phénomène des conventions collectives de longue durée, l'organisation du travail, la rémunération et les conditions de travail, la formation et le recours aux comités mixtes. Reynald Bourque, directeur à l'époque de l'École de relations industrielles de l'Université de Montréal a été invité à faire part de ses réflexions sur les tendances qui se dégagent de cette analyse des conventions collectives canadiennes et sur les orientations prévisibles des conventions collectives au cours des prochaines années.

28 April 2006 • Research Seminar Le vertige provoqué par la soft law en droit international du travail Isabelle Duplessis University of Montreal, Canada / CRIMT Summary (French only): Plusieurs juristes, tant au plan national qu'international, s'interrogent devant l'intensification de l'utilisation de formes souples de régulation sociale, regroupées communément sous l'expression 'soft law'. Dans le cadre de la gouvernance mondiale, ce phénomène n'a-t-il pas pour conséquence de rendre indiscernable le droit de la morale, de la politique ou encore de l'économique? La soft law ne constitue-t-elle pas, dans bien des cas, une stratégie d'évitement du droit déployée par différents acteurs internationaux? À terme, n'est-elle pas susceptible de dissoudre les obligations juridiques contraignantes? L'exemple de la Déclaration relative aux principes et droits fondamentaux au travail adoptée en 1998 par l'Organisation internationale du Travail nous permettra de mieux comprendre les fondements du malaise doctrinal perceptible en droit international public depuis la parution de l'article de Prosper Weil sur la normativité relative dans les années quatre-vingt ("Vers une normativité relative en droit international ?", Revue générale de droit international, 1982, pp. 5-47).

6 December 2005 • Research Seminar La planification stratégique depuis 1945 - USA, Allemagne, France, United-Kingdom : comment faire une histoire comparée de la stratégie en pratique ? Ludovic Cailluet Institut d’Administration des Entreprises (IAE) Université Toulouse 1, France Summary (French only): Henry Mintzberg dans Grandeur et déclin de la planification stratégique (1993) a décrit la fin d’une pratique de management qui a connu son heure de gloire au milieu de la décennie 1970. Suivi par d’autres, en particulier Hamel (1996), la critique était claire, les systèmes formalisés de planification stratégique n’ont pas la flexibilité nécessaire pour permettre aux entreprises de réagir aux mutations de l’environnement et de la compétition. La stratégie ne peut pas être limitée au plan conçu de la direction générale dans une logique strictement procédurière. Pourtant, des recherches récentes démontrent l’obstination des acteurs à pratiquer la planification stratégique. L’enquête annuelle de Bain & Cie (Rigby 2001, 2003) tend à prouver l’étendue de cette pratique, en Amérique du Nord et en Europe (plus faiblement). Grant (2003) a par ailleurs réalisé une recherche qualitative portant sur huit entreprises pétrolières et leur pratique de la stratégie. Ces quelques éléments semblent pointer vers une transformation plutôt qu’un abandon de la planification stratégique. Le projet de recherche présenté dans le cadre de ce séminaire de recherche vise à constituer un corpus plus systématique d’études de cas sur une longue durée (depuis 1945) et à comparer plusieurs pratiques « nationales », en Amérique du Nord et en Europe (Allemagne, France, United-Kingdom). Plusieurs problèmes sont cependant soulevés par un tel projet. Tout d’abord, il vise à une analyse des pratiques, pas à une histoire des idées ou de l’enseignement de la stratégie. Pour cela, il ne peut être réalisé exclusivement à partir de sources secondaires comme c’est trop souvent le cas dans la littérature de management. Il nous faut donc trouver des « objets » reflétant les pratiques en complément du témoignage des praticiens. Par exemple : une première étape pilote de la recherche a ainsi consisté à analyser les annonces d’emploi pour des postes de « stratèges » ou « planificateurs stratégiques » de 1965 à 2004 en France (Le Monde) et au United-Kingdom (Sunday Times). En association avec Richard Whittington de l’Université d’Oxford, nous poursuivons cette approche en utilisant d’autres « objets » : études de cas, manuels de procédures, organigrammes…Il s’agit d’un projet pas d’une présentation de recherche aboutie. L’objectif de ce séminaire de recherche était donc de dialoguer avec d’autres chercheurs sur les problèmes méthodologiques soulevés, en particulier par les comparaisons internationales.

26 September 2005 • Master Class The Politics of Working Life Paul K. Edwards University of Warwick, United-Kingdom / CRIMT Held at HEC Montréal, this master class was an occadion for Paul Edwards to described what led him and his colleague Judy Wajcman to write The Politics of Working Life. Description of the book: How does the politics of working life shape modern organizations? Is our desire for meaningful, secure work increasingly at odds with corporate behavior in a globalized economy? Does the rise of performance management culture represent an intensification of work, or create opportunities for the freewheeling individual career? This timely and engaging book, by leading authorities in the field, adopts the standpoint of the 'questioning observer'. It is for those who need an informed account of work that is accessible without being superficial. The book is unique in its multi-dimensional approach, weaving together analysis of individual work experience, political processes in organizations, and the wider context of the social structuring of markets. The book identifies central questions about working experience and answers them in a direct and lively manner. It has a strong analytical foundation based on a political economy framework, giving particular weight to the contradictory character of organizations. Here contradictions turn on the competing demands placed on organizations and the different political projects of groups within them. This perspective integrates the chapters and permits numerous scholarly debates to be addressed - including those on identity projects, gender and work, power and participation, escalation in decision-making, and the meaning of corporate social responsibility. This book is suitable for undergraduate and graduate classes in Organizational Behavior, Business Strategy and the Sociology of Work and Employment. It will also appeal to the general reader interested in grappling with the complexity of the changing environment of work.

29 August 2005 • Research Seminar Les dilemmes multiples de l'action syndicale face à la politique de concurrence de l'Union européenne : les exemples des fusions d'ABB-Alstom et d'Alcan-Pechiney-Algroup Roland Erne University College Dublin, Ireland Summary (French only): Compte tenu du cadre institutionnel technocratique de la politique de concurrence de l’Union européenne, il n'est pas exagéré de prétendre que les organisations syndicales n'y jouent pratiquement aucun rôle. Cependant, depuis l'an 2000, des représentants des travailleurs ont de plus en plus tenté d'influencer la politique européenne de concurrence. On constate en outre que les activités menées diffèrent considérablement d'un cas à l'autre. Alors que les représentants des travailleurs d'ABB-Alstom tentaient de politiser le cas de fusion d'ABB-Alstom, les représentants des travailleurs d'Alcan-Pechiney-Algroup ont adopté une stratégie compatible avec l’approche technocratique dominante de la politique concurrence de la Commission européenne. Ce séminaire de recherche visait à analyser plus en détail les stratégies syndicales contradictoires dans ces deux cas. Si les organisations syndicales ont adopté une stratégie « euro-démocratique » efficace dans le cas de la fusion d'ABB-Alstom, la stratégie adoptée dans le cas de la fusion d'Alcan-Pechiney-Algroup s'est révélée « euro-technocratique » (cf. Erne 2002a). L'adoption de stratégies contradictoires est surprenante si l'on considère que ce sont les mêmes organisations syndicales européennes, allemandes et françaises à proprement parler qui ont joué un rôle déterminant dans les deux cas de fusion. Par ailleurs, les différences de stratégies des organisations syndicales ne résultaient pas de différentes politiques des sociétés. ABB et Algroup étaient sous le contrôle du même actionnaire suisse et Alstom et Pechiney partagent un passé identique, en tant qu'entreprises multinationales françaises.
