La dualité du travail coopératif

Abstract

The scope of the present article aims to demonstrate the intimate relation between similar actions and time serving behaviours of the co-operative work. Through the longitudinal survey of interactions inside two project teams, two ways of operation of the co-operative action are involved and analysed, featured respectively as complementary co-operation and common cooperation. Far from being incompatible, the two ways of co-operation are mutually self-generating. Three paths are relieved for shifting from one mode of co-operation to the other one. A conceptual approach of the co-operation offspring presented as a dual phenomenon concludes the analysis. (English) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
