From gross misconduct to responsible behaviour. A dream that necessitates realisticness

Vinca Bigo

Résumé

Les discours sur le développement durable auront peu de substance, tant qu’ils ne seront pas accompagnés d’une notion de responsabilité, qui elle est reliée à la durabilité, où encore à la soutenabilité. Cet article est motivé par des circonstances tant géopolitiques qu’économiques calamiteuses, en terme de gouvernance, et de manière plus générale, par la prolifération de pratiques que l’on qualifiera ni de soutenables, ni de responsables. En conséquence, j’ai pour but l’élaboration d’une conception de la responsabilité, elle ancrée et robuste. Dans ce projet, je m’efforcerai d’identifier tout particulièrement les conditions nécessaires pour un tendre vers un comportement responsable, capable de soutenir un développement dit durable en pratique, aussi bien qu’en théorie.
