| Abstract | The use of control practices within both the private and public sector tends to prioritise the formal and quantitative character of control. However, theory as well as empirical research on public organisations has challenged the validity of this orientation. These studies reveal the paradox of control, that is, when control focuses excessively on the principle of order and on the formal, it can generate "less" control, and could even reduce the capacity for change. These findings encourage us to reflect on control, on the conditions of validity of knowledge control, on a critique of its assumptions and of its methods. Theoretical reflections as well as field observations suggest a management foundation that is rather "ambiguous", management by interaction, which reinforces the overall organisational control by promoting recursive control loops. |
