Metode Pemetaan Resistivitas Tanah pada Survei Pertanian dengan HUMA EC 1
Authors: Lumenta Edner , Setiawan Tedy
Published: September 2020

Survey geosika pertanian masih dapat dibilang baru dan parameter penting dari survei geosika pertanian adalah sifat-sifat tanah (tekstur, struktur, porositas, resistivitas, dan lain-lain). Survei tanah dalam geosika biasanya menggunakan metode resistivitas, induksi elektromagnetik (EMI), dan Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) karena metode-metode ini cepat dan dapat memperkirakan banyak sifat- sifat tanah, seperti salinitas, konten batu, dan kedalaman air tanah, tetapi metode ini tidak dapat memberikan informasi tentang variasi properti tanah dalam suatu prol tanah. Array wenner adalah salah satu array yang sering digunakan untuk mengukur resistivitas semu tanah dangkal. Array wenner dapat dengan mudah menghitung resistivitas semu tanah di suatu daerah dan sensitivitas instrumen ini tidak sepenting dalam geometri array lain. Besaran arus yang relatif kecil diperlukan untuk mengukur perbedaan potensial. Kerugian array wenner adalah dalam setiap pengukuran, semua elektroda harus dipindahkan ke posisi baru. Secara umum instrumentasi metode resistivitas untuk pemetaan tanah menggunakan kabel karena instrument-instrumen ini dapat digunakan untuk berbagai array, HUMA EC 1 dirancang hanya untuk mengukur resistivitas tanah dangkal dan dengan HUMA EC 1 kita bisa mengukur sifat tanah dangkal dengan lebih cepat, mudah, dan murah. Dalam penelitian ini saya akan mengukur sifat-sifat tanah di daerah Kampung Padi dan di daerah Padaasih dengan OYO McOHM dan HUMA EC 1, dan mengkorelasikan hasil kedua data resistivitas tanah, sehingga kita akan tahu apakah daerah ini baik untuk pertanian.
Shear Wave Velocity Structure Construction Using Ambient Seismic Noise Tomography (ANT) In Palu, Central Sulawesi
Authors: Ikhsan F , Yudistira Tedi
Published: September 2020

Palu is located in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia, characterized by a complex geological setting due to the intersection of Indo-Australia Plate, Philippine Plate, and Eurasia Plate. These plates intersection causes one of the most active fault systems in Indonesia with 42 mm/year relative block motion, the Palu-Koro Fault. Palu-Koro Fault system is a left-lateral fault causing the 7.5 Mw Palu-Donggala Earthquake on 28 September 2018. Moreover, the thickness of the sediment layer in Palu ampli_ed the groud motion. So, it is critical to understand more about the Palu-Koro Fault and its geological system that can be very important for hazard study. In this study, Ambient Seismic Noise Tomography (ANT) was applied to understand the Palu-Koro Fault and its geological system. ANT uses the recorded ambient seismic noise events to obtain experimental Greens function by cross-correlating two seismic record data from two seismic station. Technically, ANT is similar to surface wave tomography which produces two dimensional velocity maps. To produce the two dimensional velocity maps, processing sequence consists of the preparation of single station data, stacking, cross-correlation, Frequency-Time Analysis (FTAN), and surface wave tomography. In this study, the vertical component seismic data was processed from 22 stations in Palu to extract the Rayleigh wave dispersion. The entire data was processed at 0,5 - 5 s period range. In addition, depth inversion step was also applied to get the geological features for the further interpretation. The results of this study are the interstation dispersion curves which indicate the group velocity varies between 0.2 and 2 Km/s, the group velocity maps and the shear wave velocity structure at 0,5 5 Km depth. These results show us the existence of the low-velocity anomaly in the northern part of Palu associated with the coastal sediment, the high-velocity anomaly in the west alongside the N-S direction fault, the low-velocity anomaly in the southern eastern part, and three main geological features in Palu based on the East West cross-section. These results lead to an insight that the heavy damage of the Palu-Donggala Earthquake in 2018 was caused by the thickness of the sediment in Palu.
Determination of Groundwater Surface using Damped Least-Squares Inversion in the Bekasap Field, Riau
Authors: Pinehas D , Warsa Warsa
Published: September 2020

Groundwater is a primary water source for the sustainability of human life. Groundwater is located in the subsurface area in the saturated zone called aquifer. The presence of an aquifer can be identified through a geophysical survey by determining the upper boundary of the aquifer called the groundwater table. DC Resistivity geoelectrical method is one of the geophysical measurements which is effective to be used to determine the depth of the water table. Measurements were performed using the Wenner electrode configuration in Bekasap to attain preferable depth resolution. The process of measurement data modelling yields rms error. In order to reduce the rms error, damped least-squares is applied into the inversion solution. This process will improve the model parameter iteratively until the minimum rms error is obtained. The damped least-squares modeling was tested on three synthetic models which have Resistivity variation. Furthermore, the damped least-squares was applied on the observed data at Bekasap. From the processing and modeling using damped least-squares, the depth of the groundwater table and aquifer can be obtained.
Integrated Prediction Error Filter Analysis Application On Lake Towuti
Authors: Taufik M , Winardhi Ignatius Sonny , Bijaksana Satria
Published: September 2020

Every naturally-occurred phenomenon on earth is related to cyclicity. On a larger scale, it can be defined as the occurrence of climate periodicity which is caused by the revolution of earth towards the sun. It can also be examined on a smaller process such as the days and nights cycles, as the effect of earths rotation. This research will specifically discuss about the cyclicity of grain size changes in sediments from lake Towuti, Indonesia. The cyclicity of the sediments is deduced using Integrated Prediction Error Filter Analysis (INPEFA) trends. The INPEFA trends are used to analyse the probability of sediments distribution by simply calculating the cumulative errors between predicted and actual data. Unlike any other implementation of INPEFA that mainly observing lithology controlled by sea level changes, this research is aimed at applying INPEFA to enhance well correlation process across an area that is strongly influenced by rainfall intensity and some climatically-driven processes. By correlating the sediment units, the lateral distribution of the climatically-driven diatom ooze will eventually help a better understanding of paleoclimate events on lake Towuti. This research is aimed at constructing and applying systematic algorithm on INPEFA logs calcultation. Two main cores that construct the INPEFA calculation are trend removal process and autoregressive coefficients calculation using Burgs method. When dealing with real datasets the trend removal process is an imperative process to prevent ambiguous INPEFA trend. Moreover, the use of trend removal process is also favourable in interpreting INPEFA trends for various cyclicity periods, this is achieved by varying the input parameters on the trend removal process. Autoregressive coefficients calculation on the other hand is the keystone that constructs the INPEFA logs calculation process. Well correlations process is successfully achieved through interpreting the INPEFA trends logs. Validation of the INPEFA logs shows good correlation between the result and core sample from lake Towuti with widely-distributed tephra being the main key validator. The changes in INPEFA trends is interpreted to be linked with the change in grain size and also in sediments impedance. Comparing and validating the INPEFA trends with two seismic traces from the lake reveals that the turning point of INPEFA trends are associated with strong reflection on the seismic traces. We approach the building of pseudo-INPEFA section through applying optimum Wiener filter (OWF) during the multi-attribures analysis. The lateral continuation of predicted pseudo-log was improved, overall correlation showed an increase by 15% and a decreased in error value by 25%.

Effects of Anticipated Stigma and Discrimination on Self-Disclosure of HIV Seropositive Status among People Living with HIV and AIDS in Kenya
Authors: Ngige Lucy W , Ndayala Phoebe D
Published: September 2020

The purpose of the study was to establish whether anticipated stigma and discrimination from intimate partners and social support networks such as family, friends, neighbours, community, religious affiliates and workmates predicted the likelihood of self-disclosure of HIV seropositive status by People Living with HIV and AIDS (PLWHA) in Kenya. A survey was conducted among a random sample of 232 adult Persons Living with HIV and AIDS in Nairobi, Kenya. Data was collected using interviews and focus group discussions. The results revealed that 50.5% had disclosed their HIV seropositive status, while 49.5% had not. The results of regression analysis revealed that anticipated stigma and discrimination by intimate partners and social support networks were statistically significant negative predictors of self-disclosure of HIV seropositive status among PLWHA as evidenced by the Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR < 1.000). The negative predictors included anticipated intimate partner violence (AOR= 0.635; p = 0.016), abandonment by the family (AOR= 0.410; p = 0.002), isolation by friends (AOR=0.136; p=0.001), exclusion from social functions (AOR= 0.365; p = 0.002), exclusion from access to community amenities (AOR= 0.416; p = 0.032), exclusion by the religious group (AOR= 0.446; p = 0.032), and dismissal from the workplace (AOR= 0.266; p = 0.002). However, the anticipated desertion by intimate partners (AOR= 0.539; p = 0.086) and the anticipated segregation by the community (AOR= 0.0.538; p = 0.076) were not statistically significant predictors. These findings established that the study participants who anticipated negative consequences from their intimate partners and social support networks were not likely to disclose their HIV seropositive status. These findings further established that there was an inverse relationship between anticipated stigma and discrimination and self-disclosure of HIV seropositive status among PLWHA. This implies that anticipated stigma and discrimination promoted the non-disclosure of HIV seropositive status instead of fostering disclosure. The study concluded that anticipated stigma and discrimination against PLWHA act as risk factors for non-disclosure of HIV seropositive status thereby putting intimate partners and significant others at risk of HIV infection.

The Completed Probabilistic Modelling of Nanometer MIFGMOSFET
Authors: Banchuin Rawid , Chaisrichaoren Roungsan
Published: September 2020

A completed model of the probabilistic distribution of the drain current’s random variation of the nanometer multiple input floating gate MOSFET (MIFGMOSFET) is proposed in this work. The modelling process has taken the dominant physical level causes of the drain current’s variations into account. Unlike its predecessor, the proposed model considers both N-type and P-type nanometer MIFGMOSFET. Moreover, the formerly neglected parasitic coupling capacitances have also been taken into account. The obtained modelling results, which are based on the derived drain current’s equations of nanometer MIFGMOSFET, are very accurate. They can predict the probabilistic distributions of the candidate N-type and P-type nanometer MIFGMOSFETs obtained by using Monte-Carlo simulations with 99% confidence and higher accuracy than that of the previous work. We also perform a comparative robustness study of the nanometer MIFGMOSFET of both types and demonstrate various interesting applications of our modelling results
Biofilm Forming Potential of Escherichia coli from Various Sources
Authors: Otokunefor Kome , Melex Deborah , Abu Gideon
Published: September 2020

Majority of bacterial communities exist as biofilms and these contribute to the survival of the bacteria. Biofilm development has been associated with protection from adverse environmental conditions and resistance to harmful agents. Generally, however data on biofilm-forming potential of bacteria in Nigeria is sparse. This study was therefore aimed at analyzing variations in biofilm-forming potential of Escherichia coli from various sources in Port Harcourt, Nigeria. Previously characterized clinical (30) and non-clinical (30) E. coli isolates were assessed for their biofilm-forming potential using the Congo Red agar method and variations in this potential determined as weak, moderate or strong. Majority of isolates (67%) had the potential to form biofilms but only 40% of isolates exhibiting biofilm-forming potential were from clinical sources. Isolates exhibited variable degrees of biofilm-forming potential, with only non-clinical isolates exhibiting strong potential. Majority of both clinical and non-clinical isolates (68.7% and 88% respectively) exhibited moderate biofilm-forming potential. The higher occurrence of E. coli exhibiting biofilm-forming potential among non-clinical isolates possibly reflects the essential role biofilms play in the survival of bacteria in nature, but not in infection cases. This study reports on a high level association between the isolates and biofilm production and highlights differences in the abilities of biofilm production between clinical and non-clinical isolates.

Authors: Ire Francis , Eze Ogechi , Maduka Ndukwe
Published: September 2020

Ogiri’ is a locally fermented product from oil seeds such as melon seeds (Citrullus vulgaris). It is commonly used as condiments to enhance the flavour of the variety of foods. This study was aimed at determining the influence of different wrapping materials on microbial load, proximate composition, physicochemical and sensory properties of indigenous fermented melon seeds known as “ogiri-egusi”. Melon seeds obtained from the local market were dehulled, wrapped in banana leaf, boiled and mashed. The mashed ‘ogiri egusi’ was separately wrapped using aluminium foil, paper, banana leaf, transparent and black cellophane and allowed to ferment for five (5) days. Daily pH monitoring of the samples was carried out while microbiological analysis and proximate composition of the fermented products were determined using Standard Methods while Sensory evaluation was carried out using a 9-point Hedonic scale. The sample wrapped with banana leaf had the highest total heterotrophic bacterial count (THC) of 6.08 log10 CFU/g), total coliform count (CC) of 4.88 log10 CFU/g, total Staphylococcal count (TSC) of 5.07 log10 CFU/g) and total fungal count (TFC) of 3.75 log10 CFU/g). On the contrary, ogiri-egusi wrapped with aluminum foil had the lowest THC (5.84 log10 CFU/g), TCC (4.39 log10 CFU/g), TSC (4.83 log10 CFU/g), TLC (3.61 log10 CFU/g) and TFC (3.39 log10 CFU/g). Staphylococcus sp., Micrococcus sp., Bacillus sp. and Lactobacillus sp., Aspergillus niger, A. flavus, Fusarium sp., Saccharomyces sp., Penicillium sp. and Candida sp. were isolated from the samples wrapped with different materials. There was a slight increase in pH with an increase in fermentation time in all samples  irrespective of the wrapping material. There were significant differences (P<0.005) in proximate composition and sensory scores of the samples wrapped with different materials. Ogiri-egusi wrapped with aluminium foil was most preferred based on sensory scores. Considering the results obtained from the microbial analysis, proximate composition and sensory properties of ogiri-egusi wrapped with different materials, aluminium foil is recommended as a wrapping material. This will enhance the microbial and aesthetic qualities of this locally fermented condiment product for improved utilization.

Authors: Odu Ngozi , Uzah Gift , Akani Nedie
Published: September 2020

Increasing cost of production and global demand for citric acid is driving research towards optimizing process conditions to yield very high quantity of the organic acid using abundant cheap substrates and selected microorganisms.  Consequently, this study was designed to optimize the production of citric acid by making use of banana (Musa acuminata) peels (agro-waste) through means of solid state fermentation  involving  Aspergillus  niger  (Model  A)  and Candida tropicalis (Model B). In this study, a two-level, five-variable full factorial design of response surface methodology (RSM) comprising 32 experimental runs for each model were used to develop a statistical model for the optimization of fermentation conditions which include: pH, glucose, zinc, ammonium chloride and methanol. The results obtained indicate that a second order polynomial model fitted adequately and statistically significant (p<0.0001) and (p<0.0410) for Model A and B, respectively. The optimum values of the variables were: pH 4; glucose 5% w/v; zinc 2% w/v; ammonium chloride 0.5% w/v; and methanol 3% v/v. Under these conditions, the concentration of citric acid produced were 97.6 g/L with a pH of 3.85 using Aspergillus niger and 113.6 g/L with a pH of 3.45 using Candida tropicalis at 10days fermentation period. Experimental validation of the model indicated that no difference exist between the predicted and the actual yield results. Therefore, utilization of low-cost agro-waste banana peel which serve as suitable substrate for optimization of citric acid production is advocated because of their advantages such as income generation, reduction  in  environmental  problems  posed  by  food-waste  disposal  and  public  health  hazards associated with it.

Procedures Used in Developing and Validating the Quality of Life Scale in the Context of the Ethno-Political Conflicts in Mathare and Kibra, Nairobi City County, Kenya
Authors: Musya Justus K.
Published: September 2020

Slight differences in standard of living, issuing from horizontal inequalities between ethnic groups, are a predicate of ethnopolitical violence in Kenya. Developing and validating a scale to estimate the quality of life differences, between warring ethnic groups, can deepen our understanding of an important precursor of ethnopolitical conflict. From a careful review of poverty and developmental literature, the 16 items used in the Quality of Life Scale emerged. In subsequent exploratory factor analysis, a three-factor solution surfaced, and this was subjected to confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The CFA model scale met the criteria for composite reliability, construct validity, and strict factorial invariance. The scale has enriched our understanding of the three latent dimensions of quality of life that matter most in characterizing the quality of life. First, the indicator "proud about your life" was the strongest factor for latent factor social and physical wellbeing. Second, “can save income”, a proxy for quality of employment. This was the leading indicator for latent factor disposable income. Third, and the indicator “house comfortable to live in” was the notable indicator of latent factor living standards. The Quality of Life Scale can track trends in quality of life of ethnic groups that have a history of ethnopolitical conflict in places like Mathare and Kibra. The scale can be used in other known hotspots of violence in Kenya too where ethnic groups are susceptible to ethnopolitical conflict borne of quality of life differences.
Gérer un méta-problème : le cas des débris spatiaux
Authors: Toussaint Camille , Dumez Hervé
Published: September 2020

Avec le développement de nouveaux projets vers la Lune ou vers Mars, avec la croissance du marché des satellites privés et militaires, le secteur spatial est en pleine expansion. Ces activités sont aujourd’hui menacées par l’augmentation exponentielle du nombre de déchets en orbite autour de la Terre. Le cas présente les caractéristiques de ce que Cartwright (1987) a appelé un « méta-problème ». Un tel type de problème suppose en effet la coordination d’acteurs multiples et hétérogènes. Le cas des débris spatiaux montre qu’il se décompose par ailleurs en trois dynamiques interdépendantes mais exigeant des formes d’actions différentes : contenir au présent l’aggravation de la situation, impulser de nouvelles solutions pour l’avenir et nettoyer les débris existants pour effacer l’héritage du passé. Reposant sur l’approche des scénarios (Schoemaker, 1995 ; Wiebe et al. , 2018), cet article identifie quatre voies de résolution de ce problème. Chacune tient compte de l’hétérogénéité des acteurs, publics et privés, et des modes de coordination possibles, marché et régulation.

L’objet de cette recherche est d’étudier, dans le contexte tunisien de transition démocratique post -2011, le rôle des trois principaux acteurs (politiques, administrateurs publics et société civile) engagés dans le projet de (e)participation citoyenne Open Government Partnership (OGP). Grâce à une posture d’acteur-chercheur qui a permis une immersion dans ce projet, il a été possible de conclure que, malgré une demande pressante en matière de participation, la mobilisation citoyenne dans le projet étudié reste faible, même lorsqu’elle utilise des supports accessibles comme des plateformes technologiques. La faiblesse de cette participation s’explique, selon nos résultats, par le fait que les différents partenaires engagés dans le projet sont mus par des intérêts davantage individuels que collectifs, lesquels intérêts sont relatifs à la légitimation d’un nouveau rôle qu’ils chercheraient à jouer dans ce nouveau contexte. Cela conduit à nuancer l’engouement pour les démarches collaboratives, particulièrement sur Internet, et réinterroge, plus généralement, les vertus de la démocratie participative.
La rationalisation du travail d’ingénieur d’études dans les organisations publiques
Authors: Lanoë Lambert
Published: September 2020

Depuis le développement des sociétés industrielles, les ingénieurs se sont trouvés en position d’objectiver le travail des autres catégories de travailleurs. En ce sens, l’avènement de l’Organisation Scientifique du Travail a consacré leur rôle au sein des entreprises. Toutefois, les nombreuses mutations et projets de rationalisation qui se sont immiscés dans nos grandes organisations publiques sont à l’origine d’une profonde complexification du travail d’ingénieur. En effet, l’évolution historique introduite par la division sociale du travail à travers le taylorisme, dont les ingénieurs ont été des acteurs éminemment déterminants, a fini par les affecter à leur tour. On peut voir ici une certaine application du darwinisme où les ingénieurs originels, qui objectivaient le travail des autres employés, voient désormais leur propre travail objectivé par les gestionnaires et leurs machines.
Concevoir pour tous, mais avec qui ? Trois cas de co-conception avec des personnes en situation de handicap
Authors: Peyrard Estelle , Chamaret Cécile
Published: September 2020

De plus en plus d’entreprises recourent à la co-conception et impliquent des utilisateurs dans leurs processus d’innovation. Dans ce contexte, la participation de publics ayant des besoins spécifiques apparaît comme un des moyens d’identifier et de prendre en compte ces besoins, et ainsi, de tendre vers la conception universelle. Pourtant, les démarches mêlant conception universelle et co-conception sont rares, et les apports réciproques des deux approches peu décrits. Nous montrons ici, à travers trois cas de conception avec des personnes en situation de handicap (PSH), que cette participation permet une approche globale de la conception universelle, prenant en compte tous les aspects du produit et des usages associés. Nous soulignons cependant les spécificités des démarches de co-conception avec des utilisateurs en situation de handicap, liées tant à la posture et aux croyances du concepteur qu’à celles de l’utilisateur. Nous formulons enfin des recommandations pour les concepteurs et proposons des pistes pour de futures recherches.
La difficile articulation du pilotage des territoires dans le secteur public
Authors: Lacombe Isabelle
Published: September 2020

La vision, scientifique et statique des territoires, par les géographes et économistes est différente de celle des gestionnaires pilotant les moyens et la performance sur des territoires à potentiels différents. Une recherche-intervention sur deux cas de mise en place de dispositifs de contrôle de gestion au sein de la même organisation publique identifie et analyse les leviers et les freins aux changements organisationnels pour une meilleure articulation entre le national et les territoires dans le secteur public.
Gouvernance et intensité d’innovation dans les ETI innovantes
Authors: Djoutsa Wamba Léopold , Braune Éric , Teulon Frédéric
Published: September 2020

La décision de dépenses liées à la constitution d’actifs intangibles présente traditionnellement un cas extrême d’asymétrie informationnelle entre actionnaires et dirigeants. Toutefois les récentes mesures visant à une meilleure gouvernance des entreprises devraient permettre de rapprocher les décisions des dirigeants de l’intérêt des actionnaires. Au travers d’un échantillon de 156 ETI innovantes européennes nous montrons les effets des différentes dimensions de la bonne gouvernance sur les dépenses en R&D.
Trop et pas assez à la fois : le double fardeau de la césarienne
Authors: Dumont Alexandre , Guilmoto Christophe Z.
Published: September 2020

Le taux de césarienne varie de 1 % à 58 % dans le monde. Il est particulièrement bas, en deçà de 5 %, dans des pays peu développés d’Afrique subsaharienne comme le Mali (2 %), le Nigéria (3 %) et le Congo (5 %). À l’opposé, il dépasse les 30 % dans des pays européens comme Chypre (57 %), la Géorgie (41 %), la Roumanie (40 %) ou l’Italie (35 %). Il est très élevé aussi en Amérique latine qui a une longue histoire d’accouchements par césarienne. La République dominicaine arrive en tête avec 58 %, suivie notamment par le Brésil (55 %), le Chili (50 %) et l’Équateur (49 %).
Les « modes managériales » : une analogie entre séduction et réductionnisme théorique ?
Authors: Fache Philippe , Zerbib Romain
Published: September 2020

Cet article propose un examen critique du raisonnement analogique sur lequel se fondent les travaux consacrés aux modes managériales. Il souligne l’ambivalence du recours à l’analogie de la mode lorsqu’on veut aborder les engouements périodiques du monde entrepreneurial pour un dispositif, un outil ou un cadre de pensée perçus provisoirement comme des solutions-miracles pour remédier aux problèmes de management. Conçu comme une étude méthodologique exploratoire, l’article examine sur un mode dialectique les séductions, les biais et les écueils de cette analogie afin d’en permettre un usage contrôlé ; condition sine qua non pour saisir la complexité des déterminants de l’émergence des « nouveautés managériales » tout comme les logiques en termes d’adoption et de diffusion.
L’impact de l’engagement organisationnel et du sensemaking collectif sur la résilience de l’organisation en milieu associatif ; une analyse à travers le prisme du contrat psychologique
Authors: Lakhdar Motia Eddine
Published: September 2020

Dans ce travail de recherche, nous avons adopté deux grandes théories appartenant chacune à un domaine scientifique différent. La première est celle du contrat psychologique, abordant la relation de l’emploi de manière très fine et approfondie, et la deuxième est celle de la résilience organisationnelle originaire du domaine de la physique et transposée au domaine des sciences de gestion. En effet, les différents concepts développés tout au long de notre recherche permettent d’établir des liens forts entre les deux théories. Appliquée au domaine du management, la résilience serait la capacité d’une ou plusieurs personnes à gérer une situation difficile durant laquelle les personnes passent forcément par des processus fondamentaux basés sur la construction collective du sens menant à l’engagement organisationnel. Ces processus ont été facilement localisables à travers le prisme du contrat psychologique.
Le changement politique pour une efficacité sociétale
Authors: Autissier David
Published: September 2020

Les contraintes pandémiques de la Covid-19 ont constitué une zone d’expérimentation sur les manières de travailler mais aussi sur les comportements managériaux et la relation à l’entreprise. Le fonctionnement distanciel, la revendication d’autonomie et l’attente d’impacts positifs des entreprises sur la société ne remettent-ils pas en cause les approches classiques du changement pour une vision plus politique ?
Digitalisation et développement des activités d’une union de coopératives : vers un modèle d’organisation libérée ?
Authors: Méreaux Jean-Paul , Feige Jimmy
Published: September 2020

Au sein d’une union de coopératives productrice de champagne, un projet de digitalisation – le développement de la plateforme de e-commerce – change la manière de travailler. Le pilotage du projet vise le développement des activités de la coopérative, la fidélisation des adhérents ainsi que la conquête de nouveaux. Dans cet article, nous nous interrogeons sur la dynamique en cours et les pratiques développées au sein de cette structure : vers un modèle d’organisation viti-vinicole libérée ? Pour ce faire, nous nous appuyons sur les enseignements d’une recherche-intervention menée en son sein. Ce fonctionnement revisité s’accompagne en effet de pratiques que l’on peut observer dans les entreprises libérées : un projet de nature sociétale, de la participation et une dynamique entrepreneuriale.
