| Résumé : |
The imaginary, in Castoriadis’ sense, can promote or block meaningful cooperation within an institution. The literature has studied these dynamics at the level of society as a whole and at that of small working groups. This article shows how secondary social institutions, intermediating between society and working groups, influence the imaginary handled. A local council handling a fixed imaginary meaning, that “everything is quantifiable,” imposed from outside, provokes aggressiveness from non-profit organisations. A local council that promotes a dynamic in which the imaginary and the rules are developed collectively provokes a healthy regulation of the affective commitment of employees in the field. The management of non-profit organisations seize on this dynamic through shared work objectives, and individuality finds its place in working collectives. |
