“…O que está em questão, segundo o próprio James, é "a suposição de que os assim-chamados estados de consciência podem separar-se e combinar-se livremente, além de manter sua própria identidade inalterada enquanto formam partes de campos simultâneos mais abrangentes de experiên-cia" (James, 1909(James, /1977.…”

ResumoWilliam James é uma figura central na história da psicologia e da filosofia. Entretanto, a interpretação de sua obra ainda está repleta de lacunas e mal-entendidos. Por exemplo, a extensão e o sentido do seu projeto psicológico permanecem mal compreendidos. Para muitos autores, James teria abandonado a psicologia após The Principles of Psychology (1890), ao passo que outros entendem o The Varieties of Religious Experience (1902) como obra psicológica. O objetivo deste artigo é explorar a questão da evolução do projeto psicológico de James, acompanhando diversos momentos de sua manifestação ao longo de sua carreira. Ao final, vamos defender aquilo que chamamos de tese da pervasividade, segundo a qual a psicologia está presente em toda a obra de James.Palavras chave: William James; psicologia científica; história da psicologia. AbstractWilliam James is a central figure in the history of psychology and philosophy. However, the interpretation of his work is full of gaps and misunderstandings. In particular, the extension and meaning of his psychological project remain poorly understood. For many authors, James abandoned psychology after The Principles of Psychology (1890), whereas others understand The Varieties of Religious Experience (1902) as a psychological work. The goal of this article is to explore the issue of the evolution of James's psychological project, following distinct moments of its realization throughout his career. At the end, we will defend what we call the pervasiveness thesis, according to which psychology is present throughout James's work. William James (1842-1910) é um dos principais personagens do cenário intelectual do final do século XIX e início do século XX. Seja como "pai" da psicologia norte-americana ou como fundador do pragmatismo como movimento filosófico, seu nome figura em todas as apresentações da psicologia e da filosofia no século XX, sem falar no seu legado para alguns debates contempo-

L’activité collective, processus organisant : un processus discursif fondé sur le langage pragmatiste des habitudes

Collective activity, an organizing process: a discursive process based on the pragmatist language of habit. Recent streams in organization research have developed an action-based view of organizing, whereby actors' actions make organization emerge as a dynamic construct. They stress the process by which discourses make the sense of action emerge and generate "organizing" practical effects. This article adopts the symmetric view, focused on activity itself as a discourse in acts, rather than on language practices and objects which are involved in activity. Echoing the theory of "speech acts" (Austin, 1970;Searle, 1971) which explores the "performativity of discourse", i.e. its power of transforming situations, this article sketches a theory of "act speeches", exploring the "discursivity of action", i.e. its power to make meaning. Acts are not only operations which transform the situation, but also signs pointing at socially constructed meanings.Resorting to the pragmatist theories of habit (Peirce, 1931(Peirce, -1958(Peirce, , 1992Dewey, 1922Dewey, -1957 and inquiry (Peirce, 1992; Dewey, 1938 Dewey, -1980, collective activity is analyzed as a discursive process, combining stabilized and socially shared segments of signification ("habits") and situated inquiries to adapt or recreate habits. A case study (implementation of an integrated management information system in a large firm) shows that major organizational changes may reveal habits and their discursive coherence by disturbing them. Actors face the task, difficult because unanticipated, of rebuilding the discursive frames of their collective activity. The conclusion summarizes the theoretical, practical and methodological contributions of this approach to activity.KEY WORDS collective activity, organizing process, habit, inquiry, pragmatism.Introduction : mettre l'activité collective au coeur de la recherche en organisation Des courants de recherche récents sur les organisations, notamment l'approche fondée sur les pratiques (l'organisation vue comme « faisceau de pratiques ») et les approches orientées « processus » (l'organisation comme processus organisant plutôt que comme structure), prêtent une attention particulière à la manière dont l'action des acteurs fait émerger l'organisation comme un construit dynamique, en évolution permanente. Dans une telle Pourtant les courants dominants de la recherche sur les organisations s'étaient détournés de l'activité comme objet théorique, à la faveur de choix historiques successifs qui tendirent à détacher la question de l'organisation de celle de l'activité. Le paradigme informationnel de l'organisation, centré sur la prise de décision, le traitement de l'information et la cognition, se trouvait ainsi préféré aux vues de l'organisation fondées sur l'activité. Les nouveaux courants théoriques mentionnés précédemment mettent l'accent sur le lien étroit entre action collective et émergence continue du sens. Ils s'intéressent notamment à la manière dont les discours, la communication et les récits font émerge...

“…11 A good ('valid' [Ljungberg, 2008;Angen, 2000], or 'credible' [Agar, 1986]; see also Merriam, 1995) interpretation is one which makes sense; that is, it is recognized by actors in the actual field. (We use sensemaking also to emphasise the procedural aspect of reality, truth, and knowledge; see also James, 1977James, [1909.) A notorious problem with this, however, is that it is difficult for a researcher to interpret the reaction of people to our descriptions and analyses of them, not only because they are of course very diverse, but also because people cannot be expected to recognise, or have critical distance, to the deep structures they themselves are part of (see Glynos and Howarth, 2008;Fay, 2006).…”
