Values and management knowledge : from an epistemological problem to a genealogical response
Résumé
The paper has three parts. In the first one, we develop the idea that axiological neutrality is a poisoned gift for management knowledge. On one hand, neutrality has been indeed an extremely fruitful approach because management knowledge has been able to get constituted as a management science. But on the other hand, axiological neutrality creates epistemological difficulties. In the second part, we try to validate our theoretical hypothesis. The validation process lies on a deep genealogical study of a European major high tech company that we have been able to observe and work with since the beginning of the nineties. In the third part, we go back to theory particularly through the works of the Lacanian psychoanalyst and jurist Pierre Legendre.
