| Résumé : |
This article deals with methodological difficulties of an empirical investigation on learning through failure. Thus, we adopt a pragmatic approach of the research in management science, which is full of compromises, arbitrations and renunciations. Nevertheless, the researcher can satisfy the scientific requirements of quality, reliability and rigour. In this article, we show that it sometimes exists a gap between the ideal described by Eisenhardt (1989) – on theoretical sampling – and Van de Ven (1992) – on the longitudinal study of strategic processes – and what lives the researcher on the ground. This is particularly true when he studies a sensitive topic. |
