Michel Berry et al., « A French journal on management: surviv-ing and thriving – the case of Gérer & comprendre », Annales des Mines - Gérer et comprendre, ID : 10670/1.gbh2a9
For anyone familiar with journals in management, Gérer & comprendre stands out. Its many graphics are offbeat in relation to the text; and its articles appear under unusual headings: Overlooked...; Trial by fact; Other times, other places; Live; In quest of theories. In addition, the date of creation on the cover is intriguing: 1794. These peculiarities are to be set down to the environment in which the journal was created and the opportunities at that time. After explaining this, this article concludes that, rather than trying to blend in with a set of standards, international exchanges would be more beneficial if they capitalized on the diversity of traditions and institutions around the world.
