earned Patrick Le Galès, CNRS research director at the Center for European Studies and Comparative Politics (CEE) at Sciences Po, to receive the Grand Paris de l'esprit Grand Paris on Tuesday, December 3, awarded by the Acteurs du Grand Paris in partnership with Le journal du Grand Paris: “Metropolitan governance can be understood as an “organized anarchy”, where loosely coupled organizations coexist, often vague and potentially contradictory objectives, sets of solutions and problems that are poorly articulated between them,” the academic writes in this work. The authors cite “vicious neo-bureaucratic circles”, “organizational saturation”, the multiplication of organizations being explained “by the incessant political work aimed at creating/reforming organizations to resolve the problems themselves generated by the multiplication of organizations.”
