“…When social actors engage in critique, they denounce to others what they think is inappropriate or improper about a situation or action (Boltanski, Darré, & Schiltz, 1984). Critiques usually take the form of reasons that social actors give to explain why a particular course of action is not acceptable, or why particular evaluative criteria are not appropriate for assessing a particular task or action (Lamont, 2012).…”

Permanent repository link and evaluation in organizations by reconsidering the notion of worth, and finally 4) push the boundaries of the framework itself by questioning and fine tuning some of its core assumptions. Taken as a whole, this volume not only carves a path for a deeper embedding of the EW approach into contemporary thinking about organizations, it also invites readers to refine and expand it by confronting it with a wider range of diverse empirical contexts of interest to organizational scholars.Keywords: economies of worth; justification; critique; evaluation; French Pragmatist Sociology.3 Despite early acknowledgement of the relevance of the EW framework for studying organizations (Denis, Langley, & Rouleau, 2007;Livian & Herreros, 1994), and a recognition that it provides "a highly original perspective stressing the importance of processes of critique and justification for the production of organizational order and change" (Jagd, 2011, p. 344 (Patriotta, Gond, & Schultz, 2011;Ramirez, 2013;Taupin, 2012). JUSTIFICATION, EVALUATION AND CRITIQUE IN THE STUDY OF ORGANIZATIONS: AN INTRODUCTION TO THE VOLUMEWhile demonstrating the "generative" potential of the EW framework by combining it with other theories is both interesting and useful, there are many missed opportunities in failing to embrace the EW framework as a theory that is worthy for its own sake, one that can be particularly helpful, for example, for uncovering some of the normative contradictions that underlie institutional life by investigating how individual actors engage with a plurality of moral orders.Some of this potential can be seen in studies that have mobilized the EW framework to address topics such as intra-organizational dynamics of justification (Jagd, 2011), the strategic management of pluralistic organizations (Daigle & Rouleau, 2010;Denis et al., 2007) decision-making in public management contexts (Dodier & Camus, 1998 It is in light of the above observations and the opportunities they gave rise to that we settled on the following four objectives for the volume: (1) clarify how individuals manage the contradictions and compromises inherent in organizational pluralism by considering the daily moral life of actors inhabiting institutions; (2) look at organizations critically by unpacking the rhetorical foundations of critiques, and pragmatically examining the roles of rhetoric and justification in the critical operations that organizational actors engage in; (3) reconsider the notion of worth beyond its purely economic sense and consider the multiple facets that constitute and produce value in organizational life and (4) push the boundaries of the EW framework itself and by so doing, help further embed notions such as justification, critique and valuation in our contemporary analysis and understanding of organizations.Collectively, the set of contributions proposed in this volume address these four key objec...

“…7 Nesse novo horizonte de pesquisas, as categorias explicativas tradicionais -classes, movimentos sociais, estruturas, sociedade -passaram a ser questionadas em prol de uma abordagem mais próxima do ator e de sua experiência. A partir do plano da ação e da interação, o objetivo tornou--se investigar a formação das categorias (Boltanski & Thévenot 1983), as formas de coordenação da ação (Thévenot 1986), a emergência de atores coletivos (Boltanski 1982(Boltanski , 1984, ou dos macroatores (Latour & Callon 1981). Os grupos sociais, de conceitos explicativos do mundo social, passaram a elementos problemáticos a serem explicados.…”

Resumo: O objetivo do presente texto é apresentar a sociologia pragmática francesa a partir do livro De la justification de Luc Boltanski e Laurent Thévenot. Primeiro, fazemos uma introdução geral dos principais pontos de convergência do campo sociológico francês desde a década de 80. Em seguida, apresentamos a obra De la justification, considerada como um marco na guinada pragmática da sociologia francesa. Então, apresentamos dois de seus principais conceitos: o de prova e o de cité. Por fim, através de um apanhado das forças e das fraquezas do modelo, problematizamos alguns de seus limites e desafios, como o de integrar na intuição pragmatista questões como o engajamento crítico do sociólogo e a análise dos processos, das disposições e dos problemas de longa duração.

“…En d'autres termes, à cette légiti-mation verticale correspond une légitimation horizontale. L'idée de système actanciel (Boltanski, 1984), en avançant que la définition d'un champ dépend des actes posés, permet de saisir comment cette deuxième forme de production de légitimité s'élabore. Pour que des actes fassent du sens, il convient que soient effectuées des mises en rapport entre actants (ici les producteurs de recherche), que des actes soient assemblés pour que les actants se sentent agir en fonction de règles et de lois semblables.…”

L’auteur analyse les formes actuelles de délimitation de la scientificité en sciences sociales, et la manière dont elles sont produites, en postulant que l’économie générale des rapports de raison y est supportée par des rapports de forces entre chercheurs, combinant positions et stratégies. L’auteur prend appui sur un champ particulier des sciences sociales, la recherche sociale, parce que celle-ci semble exacerber cette situation de flottement de l’orthodoxie scientifique et présager des voies de « recomposition » plus nettes.The author analyses the forms of definition of scientific status in the social sciences and the ways in which these forms are produced. He begins with the postulate that the economy of reason relations is built upon the force relations between researchers as expressed by the positions and strategies present in a particular field. The author examines the situation in a particular field of the social sciences, that of social research, because this field provides an eloquent example of the shifting criteria of scientific orthodoxy and seems to show promise for a clearer restructuring of the situation.El autor analiza las formas actuales de delimitación de la cientificidad en ciencias sociales y el modo cómo son producidas, postulando que la economía general de las relaciones de racionalidad se apoya en las relaciones de poder entre los investigadores, en una combinación de posiciones y de estrategias. El autor se apoya en un campo particular de las ciencias sociales, el de la investigación social, dado que en ella parece exacerbarse esta situación de inseguridad de la ortodoxia científica y que puede por lo tanto ser un augurio de vías nuevas de reorganización
