Abstract

Ce papier vise à contribuer à la réflexion sur la responsabilité sociale de l'entreprise en examinant l'apport d'un précurseur en la matière, l'économiste institutionnaliste américain JR. Commons. Celui-ci pose la question du rapport de l'entreprise à la société à partir d'une problématique spécifique, celle du capitalisme raisonnable. L'article se centre sur une réforme sociale, le Wisconsin Plan, portée dans les années 20-30 par Commons et son école du Wisconsin, qui fut un emblème pratique de cet horizon d'un capitalisme raisonnable. Nous approfondissons à la fois la philosophie sociale de cette réforme et la logique des dispositifs régulatoires conçus pour transformer conjointement les comportements et les institutions du capitalisme.
