Extension du domaine de la prédation. La vente d’Alstom à General Electric

Olivier Coussi and Nicolas Moinet

Revue française de gestion, 2019, vol. N° 285, issue 8, 211-227

Abstract: In 2014, the energy branch of the Alstom group is sold to General Electric, causing a number of tribulations at the highest level of French institutional spheres to the point of triggering a parliamentary commission of inquiry as well as a judicial inquiry. This case invites an analysis of the events through the theoretical prism of the agility/strategic paralysis couple. An in-depth study of the mechanisms at work reveals a new mode of economic predation, the armed arm of which is the extraterritoriality of American law, combined with persistent cultural behaviour linked to arrogance.
