| Résumé : |
This article analyzes a very little-studied aspect of the history of management thought in France: the role of French managers in the organization of financial economics during the 1970s and 1980s. While the foundations of the financial economics were laid by American economists in the 1960s and 1970s, these ideas were introduced in France between the second half of the 1970s and the early 1980s mainly by French managers trained in Canada and the United States. This article describes how these managers introduced and structured this field in France, both scientifically and practically. In addition to an analysis of publications and archives, this article is based on information collected through a survey and interviews with the main French actors of this period. It also uses an original database constructed from working papers of the Centre d’Enseignement Supérieur des Affaires, and original statistical data, compiled from documents of the European Institute for Advanced Studies in Management. This article presents three main results. First, French managers have benefited from a favorable context for introducing research in financial economics. Second, at that time the contributions of French managers consisted mainly of applying American mainstream models of market finance to French data thanks to the creation of computer databases. Third, French managers had largely contributed to the performativity of financial economics in France. |
