Conditions expérimentales de la délibération éthique dans les organisations et principe de justice

Abstract

Deliberation, this term has a high topical debate. Initiatives and experiments are emerging on this subject in very different organizational contexts. Research on ethical decision making and analysis of several experiments on this subject lead us to focus our attention on decisionmaking processes related to these new deliberative practices. With regard to ethical decision and its legitimacy, rather than the analysis of convergence in the systems of representation and ethical judgments, the priority should be given to the analysis of the deliberative process itself. Based on this concept, we discuss how some experimental approaches and methods available to social actors include this concept of legitimacy by the deliberative process.
