International audience ; Social Networks Systems (SNS) are among the latest trends of web 2.0. Based on Social Network Analysis' methods, these tools identify the relationships between individuals and allow them to interact and exchange information informally. These tools are attracting more and more organizations' interest because of their ability to facilitate actors' work and to improve cross functional collaboration between actors. However these tools are also likely to highlight the informal structure of the organization and making visible what was hidden and therefore these tools may have significant social and political impacts within the organization (Bowker and star, 1995; Star and Strass, 1999) and lead actors to re-negotiate their social positions in the organization. In this context, the objective of this research is to study how individuals adopt the idea of implementing a new social networks tool in a company. Through a case study within BOUYGUES CONSTRUCTION, we study the symbolic adoption of a SNS tool by the actors. By adopting the theory of signa and symbol of Feldman and March (1981), we have identified that the planned deployment of a SNS was perceived by actors as being both a signal expressing the willing of the organization to move towards a more collaborative model and a symbol of social change that organization have to integrate. Nevertheless the deployment of a Social Network tool is more leading actors to defend the current operating mode of BOUYGUES CONSTRUCTION than to re-negotiate their social positions. ; Les outils de réseaux sociaux comptent parmi les dernières tendances du web 2.0.

The world of work is changing. A century after moving from an agriculture-centered world to an Industrial one, from self-employed workers to salaried employees, our modern economies are slowly transitioning towards a new model: based on simultaneous collaboration and competition, the boundaries of contemporary organizations are blurring; information technologies are allowing individuals and companies to set base away from cities; shared working spaces are triggering new forms of collaborations between individuals and corporations.This White Paper aims at diagnosing key institutional tensions related to new work practices in the city, and putting forward questions and general propositions likely to overcome these tensions. The idea is to analyze how new collaborative communities and collaborative logics (of coworkers, hackers, makers, fabbers, and teleworkers) and more traditional collective activity and modes of decision making (of the city and corporations in the city) can jointly contribute to the co-production of harmonious new ways of life and new ways of working. Reinventing joint public policies, corporate strategies and citizenship appear here as a key stake where usual dichotomies between private-public, collaborative-non-collaborative economy, traditional citizens and hacktivists need to be overcome.We thus identify in this document a set of controversies around four strong political issues both for the city and the field of management, linked to the emergence of collaborative spaces:o Topic 1. Space, territories, and public policy on collaborative communities in the city;o Topic 2. Collaborative communities and their roles in education in the city;o Topic 3. Business models and their communication in the context of collaborative spaces and collaborative communities;o Topic 4. Collaborative spaces and their roles in innovation and entrepreneurial dynamics at the level of the cityBeyond our controversies, we underline three paradoxes which should be at the heart of new questions for policy-makers, ...
