  • Jean-Yves Robin

摘要

This text examines the citizenship of bosses—especially those of large companies. They tend to be considered as people who have the right to privileges, legally. However, the analysis of a set of monographs on French bosses over the previous decades leads us to wonder whether these bosses are responsible citizens or directed leaders. This chapter answers the following questions: What can be said about the exercise of citizenship among bosses, who are particularly privileged social actors? Is the confinement of politics, conceived as concerted action, also a characteristic of this population?
