La gestion de la Covid-19 en France : une crise organisationnelle ?
Commentaire : Jérémy Geeraert (HU / CMB)

La gestion de la pandémie de Coronavirus par les autorités françaises révèle plusieurs paradoxes: malgré une densité d'institutions d'expertise sanitaire tout à fait exceptionnelle, les débuts de la crise sont marqués par des improvisations organisationnelles au sommet de l'Etat pour conseiller l'exécutif ; malgré un investissement ancien dans la préparation à la gestion d'une pandémie, on relève également ce qui s'apparente à un haut degré d'impréparation, qui débouche sur l'adoption d'une mesure totalement inédite : le confinement de l'ensemble de la population ; enfin, malgré une gestion de crise qui, comparé à ses voisins, ne semble ni meilleure ni pire en termes de résultats, on constate en France un plus grand niveau de défiance au sein de l'opinion publique vis-à-vis des autorités. Nous proposerons dans cette présentation plusieurs pistes issues de la sociologie des organisations et de la sociologie des crises pour analyser ces paradoxes. For the last 15 years, Olivier Borraz has conducted research in the field of risk. Initially, he was interested in crises in the area of food safety and controversies surrounding environmental health. In addition, he has analyzed decision-making processes in health safety, the creation and operation of health safety agencies, and more generally risk regulation policies in both the health and environmental sectors. He later began to explore issues surrounding the emergence or non-emergence of certain environmental health risks, as well as the production of related knowledge and skills. More recently, his research has taken two directions. On the one hand, he analyzes the role of government in crisis preparation and management, looking specifically at the nuclear sector. On the other, he is participating in a comparative study on the spread of risk instruments in France, the United Kingdom, Germany, and the Netherlands, in sectors as diverse as occupational health, flooding, criminal policy, and education. Lastly, he is working to develop a socio-economic analysis of risk. In 2008, he published Les politiques du Risque (Sciences Po University Press) and a new series devoted to public policy (Politiques Publiques, Sciences Po University Press) with Virginie Guiraudon. At the CSO, he directs the Risk governance program and collaborates on the healthcare program. Henri Bergeron conducts research on healthcare policy and changes in medical practice through the study of various subjects, including illegal drugs, alcohol, obesity, medical research, and public healthcare. He uses tools from the sociology of public policy, the sociology of social movements, and above all the sociology of organizations to evaluate the forces at work in the creation of public policies and the reconfigurations of organizational and institutional fields. He is particularly interested in the interconnection of knowledge, expertise, and politics, and more broadly in organizational and institutional change.
