Résumé : |
In this paper, we question excesses of the instrumental rationality disseminated by managerial thought in a large, based on Elster’s work. Starting from the concept of over-rationality still little explored in management science, we first expose its roots and, particularly, the psychic mechanisms associated with its development in organizations. Then we discuss successively different forms of over-rationality and their effects in two well-known organizational configurations: bureaucratic and post-bureaucratic configuration. We show that, if forms are different, the mechanisms of the over-rationality at work are identical and the pseudo-rationalism remains predominant. In the end, we point out the role of mistrust in the over-rational organization and plead for a restoration of personal trust as a solution to overcome over-rationality. |
