la cogestion

By Laura K. Lawless, About.com Guide

Definition: joint management, co-management

Je respecte la SRM,* dont la mission première est de défendre l'indépendance des contenus, mais il n'est pas question de dériver vers un système de cogestion.
    Pierre Jeantet, 20 décembre 2007 (explaining why he and his colleagues Bruno Patino and Eric Fottorino collectively resigned from Le Monde's board of directors)
I respect the Society of Editors of Le Monde, whose primary mission is to defend the independence of [the newspaper's] content, but there is no question of moving toward a system of joint management.
