Résumé : |
This paper investigates and discusses the use of systemic methodologies (SMs) developed in management science/operational research (MS/OR), in particular, those SM that have been informing the complexity inherent in environmental management abd sustainable (EM/S) practices. By surveying a sample of the top MS/OR and systems journals, we assese the extent to which systemic management science methodologies developed recently have been used in tackling EM/S problems. Titles and abstracts EM/S applications published in MS/OR and systems journals between 1989 and 2009 were queried for the occurence of typical keywords associated with a set of SMs (eg, complexity theory, systems dynamics, soft systems, critical systems, viable systems model). The survey identifies a set of articles representing the practice of either a particular methodology or of a mixture of various SMs in EM/S setting. By assembling and critically reviewing a sample of applications in EM/S the paper hopes to raise awarness among environmentalists, oparational researchers and management scientists of the benefits of using systemic approches developed in MS/OR and, in this way, to encourage further exchange and conversation between these fields of management |
