Rationalité Et Lien Social Chez Les Dirigeants D'entreprise Du Groenland: Modernité, Néo-Libéralisme Et Capitalisme ALEXANDRE MORIN RATIONALITÉ ET LIEN SOCIAL CHEZ LES DIRIGEANTS D'ENTREPRISE DU GROENLAND: MODERNITÉ, NÉO-LIBÉRALISME ET CAPITALISME Mémoire présenté à la Faculté des études supérieures de l’Université Laval pour l’obtention du grade de maître ès arts (M.A.) Département de sociologie FACULTÉ DES SCIENCES SOCIALES UNIVERSITÉ LAVAL JUILLET 2001 © Alexandre Morin, 2001 RÉSUMÉ Ce mémoire porte sur la rationalité des dirigeants d’entreprise du Groenland. L’analyse est basée sur des entrevues effectuées auprès des acteurs de l’industrie alimentaire. Les valeurs préconisées dans le discours dominant révèlent une idéologie capitaliste et néo-libérale. Entre autres, l’intervention de l’État dans l’économie est vue comme un obstacle au développement économique, tant chez les dirigeants d’entreprise du secteur gouvernemental que privé. Il en découle un lien social typiquement moderne, compte tenu que les actions des individus sont motivées rationnellement vers une quête de rentabilité qui importe avant toute chose. Ainsi, la social-démocratie (nivellement des conditions de vie par l’État) et certaines valeurs traditionnelles (nourriture inuite de l’époque nomade) sont moins considérées, car elles ne favorisent pas la profitabilité. Cette logique d’action résulte de transformations sociohistoriques données, où la pénétration du capitalisme dans les rapports sociaux a modernisé le Groenland depuis sa colonisation par les Danois. Alexandre Morin Gérard Duhaime (Candidat) (Directeur de recherche) ii REMERCIEMENTS Tout d’abord, je remercie ma famille, Richard, Micheline et Dominique, dont le support inconditionnel fut un point d’appui extraordinaire. Je suis également plus que reconnaissant envers Stéphanie, qui a permis un échange fécond et précieux à ce genre d’entreprise. Ta chaleur et ton amour m’ont fourni l’énergie et la passion essentielles à ma vie. Merci encore à Birger Poppel et l’équipe de Statistics Greenland pour l’accueil chaleureux. Merci aux personnes interviewées, qui m’ont accordé temps, confiance et honnêteté. Merci à mes amis groenlandais pour m’avoir fait connaître ce merveilleux pays et pour votre générosité. Je désire témoigner ma reconnaissance à Rasmus Rasmussen, Tom Greiffenberg, Jens Kaalhauge Nielsen, Gorm Winther, Wolfgang Kahlig, Pierre Fréchette, Ole Marquardt et Thibault Martin pour le travail de prélecture, les discussions et les bons conseils. Je tiens aussi à exprimer ma gratitude envers Lise Fortin pour son aide dans l’organisation de mes recherches de terrain. Le plus grand merci à Gérard Duhaime, mon directeur de mémoire, qui a d’abord cru en mes capacités et qui m’a permis d’élargir mes horizons. Tu constitues pour moi un modèle, une source d’inspiration dans mon apprentissage du métier de sociologue. Notre collaboration dans le cadre de mes études de maîtrise aura été l’une des plus belles étapes de ma vie, tant sur le plan académique que personnel. iii TABLE DES MATIÈRES Résumé ....................................................................................................................................... ii Remerciements .......................................................................................................................... iii Table des matières ......................................................................................................................iv Tableaux, cartes et photos ...........................................................................................................v INTRODUCTION — PROBLÉMATIQUE DE LA RATIONALITÉ DES DIRIGEANTS D'ENTREPRISE DE L’INDUSTRIE ALIMENTAIRE GROENLANDAISE ....................................................................................1 Question générale de recherche — La modernisation des sociétés circumpolaires et le cas groenlandais.................................................................................................................................1 Question et stratégie de recherche — L’étude de la rationalité et du lien social chez les dirigeants d'entreprise..................................................................................................................6 CHAPITRE 1 — CAPITALISME ET MUTATIONS DU LIEN SOCIAL CHEZ WEBER ..................................13 L’action sociale .........................................................................................................................13 Le lien social..............................................................................................................................14 Le changement social: « sociation » du lien social par le capitalisme ......................................18 Le capitalisme comme norme dominante de la rationalité........................................................24 CHAPITRE 2 — MÉTHODOLOGIE .....................................................................................................26 Analyse de statistiques descriptives ..........................................................................................26 Entrevues semi-dirigées.............................................................................................................29 Interprétation sociohistorique....................................................................................................35 CHAPITRE 3 — LE CONTEXTE GROENLANDAIS................................................................................39 Démographie .............................................................................................................................41 Structure industrielle .................................................................................................................45 Structure géographique de l’économie......................................................................................62 Conclusion sur l’économie: mono-production, marché mondial, climat et capitalisme d’État ......................................................................................................................69 iv CHAPITRE 4 — DIAGNOSTIC DES RATIONALITÉS.............................................................................76 Les normes étatiques prescrites aux entreprises gouvernementales: social-démocratie ou capitalisme?

  • Linguistic Landscape, Greenlandic, Danish, Nuuk, Greenland, Signs, Multilingual, Urban, Minority, Indigenous
    The linguistic landscape of Nuuk, Greenland Abstract The purpose of this article is to present and analyse public and private signs in the linguistic landscape of Nuuk, the capital of Greenland. Nuuk is a trilingual environment including the indigenous language (West Greenlandic), the former colonial language (Danish), and the global language (English). West Greenlandic is a somewhat unusual case among indigenous languages in colonial and postcolonial settings because it is a statutory national language with a vigorous use. Our analysis examines the use of West Greenlandic, Danish, and English from the theoretical perspective of centre vs. periphery, devoting attention to the primary audiences (local vs. international) and chief functions (informational vs. symbolic) of the signs. As the first investigation into the Greenlandic linguistic landscape, our analysis can contribute to research on signs in urban multilingual indigenous language settings. Keywords: linguistic landscape, Greenlandic, Danish, Nuuk, Greenland, signs, multilingual, urban, minority, indigenous 1. Introduction The purpose of our study is to analyse public and private signs in the linguistic landscape of Nuuk, the capital of Greenland. Scholarly enquiry into the linguistic landscape seeks to ascertain the practices and ideologies relating to the language appearing in public spaces. The public spaces included in this type of analysis consist of official signs (e.g. traffic signs, street names, government notices), private signs (e.g. shop names, private business signs, personal ads), graffiti, food packaging, notes, discarded items, and moving signs on buses or t-shirts (see e.g. see Gorter, 2006; Shohamy & Gorter, 2009; Jaworski & Thurlow, 2010). The dynamic, constantly mediated multimodal linguistic landscape gives space its meaning and interacts with the built environment (Moriarty, 2014a).

    West Greenland Commission WGC(15)3 Report of the Inter-sessional Meeting of the West Greenland Commission WGC(15)3 Report of the Inter-sessional Meeting of the West Greenland Commission Hotel Hans Egede, Nuuk, Greenland 24 - 26 February 2015 1. Opening of the Meeting 1.1 The Chairman of the West Greenland Commission (WGC), Mr Ted Potter (European Union), opened the meeting and welcomed participants from the Member Parties and accredited NGOs (Annex 1). He referred to the previous valuable exchanges of information at the Commission’s meetings in 2014 and noted that it had been agreed that States of origin would share experiences with Greenland on approaches to improving the monitoring of landings with a view to ensuring full reporting. An Ad hoc Working Group had been established inter alia to recommend options to enhance the monitoring and control of the West Greenland salmon fishery. He thanked the Group and Denmark (in respect of the Faroe Islands and Greenland) for preparing a Draft Plan to implement the Group’s recommendations. He indicated that over the two days available to it, the Commission needed to review events in the 2014 fishery at West Greenland, discuss the Draft Plan for enhanced monitoring and management of the salmon fishery at West Greenland, consider how the six tenets of effective management of an Atlantic salmon fishery might be applied to an evaluation of the salmon fisheries of other Parties and establish, at a minimum, a framework or parameters for the development of a new agreement taking into consideration the Draft Plan developed by Denmark (in respect of the Faroe Islands and Greenland).
