That is why creating a management dissertation topic that is particular, sound, and actually solves a practical problem that may be rampant in the field is imperative.

We can’t stress how important it is to develop a logical research topic based on your entire research. There are several significant downfalls to getting your topic wrong; your supervisor may not be interested in working on it, the topic has no academic creditability, the research may not make logical sense, there is a possibility that the study is not viable.

This impacts your time and efforts in writing your dissertation , as you may end up in the cycle of rejection at the initial stage of the dissertation. That is why we recommend reviewing existing research to develop a topic, taking advice from your supervisor, and even asking for help in this particular stage of your dissertation.

Keeping our advice in mind while developing a research topic will allow you to pick one of the best management dissertation topics that fulfil your requirement of writing a research paper and adds to the body of knowledge.

Therefore, it is recommended that when finalizing your dissertation topic, you read recently published literature to identify gaps in the research that you may help fill.

Remember- dissertation topics need to be unique, solve an identified problem, be logical, and be practically implemented. Please look at some of our sample management dissertation topics to get an idea for your own dissertation.

Dowdell, Linda P. "Postulation of project management office structures in reducing operational risk of financial institutions." Thesis, University of Phoenix, 2015. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3691409.

This exploratory case study used a qualitative research method and explored how Project Management Offices (PMOs) and associated governance groups, such as project management, program management, portfolio management, and risk management, play an important role and are viewed as a positive contributing factor in the successful management of projects. The study also explored the perceived reduction of operational risk that would help prevent the likelihood of financial market collapse reoccurrences, and the perceived importance and impact of operational management structures of financial institutions in contributing to the prevention of another banking collapse. The following themes emerged in the study: Operational risk, regulatory groups, characteristics of PMO structures, optimal PMO structures, PMO effectiveness, and maturity levels of PMOs. A postulation to integrate PMO structures and associated governance groups in the accords (frameworks) of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) was proposed to help financial institutions reduce operational risks that affect consumers of financial services. A non-traditional survey-based case study was conducted with eight project management professionals with financial industry experience in the United States. The case study helped reveal that financial collapses were significantly related to the lack of PMO structures and integration of those structures into regulatory frameworks as mandates. This case study further found that to reduce the likelihood of another financial collapse, a change needs to be made to organizational structures by (a) implementing well-run PMOs and associated governance groups, and (b) integrating those structures into regulatory frameworks.

Herrera, Stephanie A. "Exemplary Leadership| A Mixed-Methods Case Study Discovering How Female Chief Executive Officers Create Meaning." Thesis, Brandman University, 2017. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10271696.

Purpose: The purpose of this thematic, mixed-methods case study was to identify and describe the behaviors that exemplary female chief executive officers (CEOs) use to create personal and organizational meaning for themselves and their followers through meaning-making domains: character, vision, relationships, wisdom, and inspiration. Additionally, it was the purpose of this study to determine the degree of importance to which followers perceived behaviors within the meaning-making domains.

Methodology: The exploratory mixed-methods case study was selected to gather insight into the behaviors of four female chief executive officers through interviews. Twelve of their employees were asked to complete an online survey. The results of both the qualitative interviews and quantitative surveys were then compared for triangulation.

Findings: The qualitative findings of this research suggest that exemplary female CEOs demonstrate behaviors from each of meaning-making domains (character, vision, relationships, wisdom, and inspiration), with character and vision as most significant to meaning making. Followers concurred with their quantitative input, finding the domains of character and relationships to be the most significant in creating meaning within the organization.

Conclusions: The study’s findings support the need for CEOs to integrate behaviors from each of the meaning-making domains (character, vision, relationships, wisdom, and inspiration) in order to create meaning for themselves and their followers. CEOs wishing to develop behaviors across these domains should make decisions based on a moral compass, invest in strategic planning, as well set aside time for reflection and self-development.

Recommendations: There is a need for further exploration in this area of study. Replication studies could identify differing populations, exemplary male CEOs, or look at other geographical locations. For a deeper look into this topic, a pure qualitative design approach is suggested. The 21 emerging themes also need a deeper understanding and each could contribute to its own study. Finally, it is highly advisable that studies be conducted in order to add to the body of knowledge on meaning-making leadership.

Collazo, Jose. "Impact of leadership style on innovation| A study of retired military senior officers in executive-level supervisory roles within the high-technology engineering defense industry." Thesis, Pepperdine University, 2015. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3713895.

This study examined the relationship between leadership style and past military rank, and how these might impact an organization’s innovation climate. The sample consisted of (a) retired U.S. Army senior officers currently employed as executive-level supervisors in the high-technology engineering defense industry and (b) those working under such supervisors. Two leadership styles investigated in this study are transactional and transformational, the former defined by incentive structures based on pay and promotion according to performance, and the latter defined by charisma, inspiration, intellectual stimulation, and individualized consideration. Although these are not mutually exclusive styles, they are conceptually distinct operating modes. The former emphasizes hierarchy, while the latter emphasizes egalitarian relations. The hypothesis was that leaders with military background might habitually operate in transactional style, characteristic of hierarchical organizations where functionality benefits from conformity and lack of dissent as fundamental elements that enhance a high level of coordination. Conversely, research suggests that for-profit engineering-related businesses should benefit from innovation-enhancing characteristics linked with transformational leadership.

Quantitative data was gathered through self-report Likert-scale measures accessed online: the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) with subscales as independent variables and the Workplace Innovation Scale’s innovation climate subscale as a dependent variable. Rank as an independent variable was defined by dividing supervisor-group respondents into two comparison groups, an upper and lower tier. Supervisors and subordinates reported on their own or their supervisor’s leadership style, respectively, and innovation climate. The study aimed primarily to detect correlations between (a) MLQ scores and innovation climate and (b) past rank of supervisors and innovation climate.

Garcia, Munoz Alejandro. "Leadership competencies for effective hospital chief executive officers and chief medical officers in Mexico." Thesis, Pepperdine University, 2013. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=1543405.

This study identified a leadership competency model for developing healthcare executives in Mexico based on the National Center for Healthcare Leadership (NCHL) Model. Eleven chief executive officers and chief medical officers were interviewed. They considered 86% of the National Center for Healthcare Leadership (NCHL) competencies as very important or vital and perceived a gap in the performance of these competencies. They also identified additional vital competencies beyond the scope of the NCHL's model. Participants also reported that leadership development and succession planning programs were lacking. Recommendations are to design a leadership development program using the NCHL model as a framework and further customizing the approach per the organization's unique mission, vision, strategy, values, and circumstances. The NCHL is offered as a general strategy for leader development that could be useful in the Mexican private healthcare industry, based on some "best practices" in the design and implementation of the leadership programs.

Ngufor, Patrick. "Quantitative study of perceptions of business owners and loan officers on loan delinquency and default." Thesis, University of Phoenix, 2014. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3578584.

This research seeks to document if differences in perceptions of small business creditworthiness and lending practices of credit union and commercial lenders exist. This study applied a quantitative method to answer five questions: (1)How do small business owners perceive commercial lenders? (2)How do small business owners perceive credit union lenders? (3)How do commercial banks perceive small businesses? (4)How do credit unions perceive small businesses? (5)What are the differences in the perceptions of small businesses, commercial banks, and credit unions? The study used a quantitative survey instrument to gather data and the data was compared and contrasted among groups (Fitzgerald & Rumrill, 2004). The chi-squared test of differences in probabilities and the goodness of fit test were applied (Figure 2A) to determine if there were differences in probabilities between answers.

The results of this study are significant to small business and banking leaders by helping to define how lenders’ and small businesses’ perceptions affect the differences in loan delinquency rates between commercial lenders and credit unions lenders and by offering new insight into how loan delinquency rates can be reduced. The results also pointed to inherent perceptions of small business owners and lenders that might contribute to the root causes of loan defaults and delinquencies. The results provided information upon which small business owners and financial institution loan officers might act in order to understand how to better manage loans and to reduce the rate of loan delinquency.

Student Affairs Administration

Student Affairs Administration & Leadership

Dissertation.

As part of your degree program in Student Affairs Administration and Leadership, you will complete a dissertation. The dissertation process is embedded into the curriculum. Thus, although it is primarily independent work, you will begin designing your dissertation in key courses (SAA 930 and SAA 950) and will continue to work on it while completing your coursework.

You will work closely with a dissertation chair, and, given that you will begin this work in courses, you may develop writing support groups among your peers. These steps are intended to decrease the sense of alienation during the dissertation process and the risk of not completing.

General information about the dissertation follows.

Preparation will include:

First year courses that will set the stage for topic ideas.
Regular meetings with your advisor.
A dissertation planning course and a seminar course.
An optional 1-credit "Writers' Retreat" - SAA 931.
SAA 830 Qualitative Research Methods
SAA 835 Assessment & Program Evaluation
SAA 845 Quantitative Research Methods
SAA 930 Dissertation Planning
SAA 950 Dissertation Seminar

This tab provides a general overview of the roles and responsibilities* held by the various members of the dissertation committee, including you. Individual committees are likely to vary from one another, given student and faculty preferences and needs for working together.

The Student

You, the student, bear ultimate responsibility for your dissertation - from the initial development of the question through to the submission of the final version to the Graduate Studies Office. These responsibilities include:

Be familiar with dissertation policies, procedures, and deadlines - including those specified by Graduate Studies .
Submit your own original work and, where appropriate, ensure you cite the work of others. Be familiar with policies on academic dishonesty and plagiarism.
Maintain contact with your dissertation chair.
Schedule regular meetings with the chair to discuss your progress.
Submit work for feedback as agreed upon by your chair and you. Be responsive to the feedback received from your chair.
Identify and ask individuals to serve as dissertation committee members.
Determine whether you need a methodologist.**
Develop a realistic timeline for completion of the dissertation - both at the proposal and final stages.
Schedule meetings, including defenses, with members of the dissertation committee.
Obtain and maintain human subjects research certification.
Secure Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval at UW-La Crosse as well as any other institutions involved in your study.
Follow Graduate Studies policies and procedures related to the dissertation .

The chair is generally selected on the basis of content and/or methodology expertise. The chair holds the responsibility of guiding the student to produce doctoral level, original scholarship in the proposed topic area. The chair must be a full-time member of the SAA faculty and hold full graduate faculty status. Responsibilities include:

Advise the student from the proposal stage through the final dissertation defense.
Help the student establish a realistic timeline for completion of the dissertation.
Guide the student in selection of dissertation committee members.
Assist the student in developing a quality proposal and ethical research plan.
Provide guidance on the research proposal structure, formatting, and content.
Guide the student in selection of methods for data collection and analysis.***
Provide thorough and timely feedback throughout the dissertation process.
Ensure student's proposal and final dissertation are adequately prepared prior to submission to the committee.
Assist the student in the dissertation proposal defense process.
Assist the student in navigating the IRB approval process.
Guide the student through the data collection and analysis processes.
Prepare the student for the dissertation defense process.

Committee Members

All committee members share responsibility in ensuring the student produces high-quality and ethical scholarship. Committees are comprised of two to four individuals in addition to the chair. Each individual must hold a doctorate or a terminal degree in their field. A committee member, who has particular expertise in the type of study the student is pursuing (quantitative, qualitative, mixed methods), may be selected to serve as a methodologist. Committee member responsibilities include:

In cooperation with the chair, advise the student from the proposal stage through the final dissertation defense.
Provide subject matter or methodology expertise as requested by the chair or student.
Read drafts and provide meaningful and timely feedback at each defense stage of the process.
Guide the student in the selection of methods for data collection and analysis.
Guide the student through the data collection and analysis process.
Correspond with the chair and candidate as needed for clarification/resolution of methodological issues.

* This document is adapted from the University of Tennessee - Chattanooga's Learning and Leadership Department and Indiana State University .

** A methodologist is a committee member who has particular expertise in the type of study the student is pursuing (quantitative, qualitative, mixed methods).

*** This function may also be addressed by a methodologist on the committee.

This page provides a general overview of the timing of that work, mapped out by each semester. Check actual deadlines each semester.

Year One - Summer/Fall

As you begin your course work, use this time to mull over ideas for what you'd like to explore with your dissertation.
Search mechanisms (e.g., EbscoHost, Google Scholar, etc.)
Reference management tools (e.g., Zotero, EndNote, etc.)
Student affairs / higher education literature

Proposal Defense

You will work closely with your chair to develop your dissertation proposal. Your committee chair will determine when your proposal is ready to be defended and will offer guidance on how they would like you to share the proposal with your committee. "Defending" your proposal means engaging in a conversation with your dissertation committee about your research plans. The common language used is "defense" although, in reality, the meeting is much more of a dialogue about your ideas, questions, and methods. Some details include:

The proposal defense is a meeting of your full committee that should be scheduled for 2 hours. You will be responsible for identifying a meeting time that works for all of your committee members.
The defense will take place online (via WebEx or similar virtual format). Your chair will be responsible for organizing the online meeting and ensuring that all committee members have access/can use the virtual format.
The defense will begin with a 15-20-minute presentation by you to the committee. You will outline your dissertation proposal at this time.
The committee members will then ask questions, discuss concerns, and offer suggestions. In general, your chair will know in advance of the proposal defense meeting if committee members have major concerns. In that case, they will work with you prior to the meeting to ensure that you are prepared to address these concerns.
After discussion concludes, you will be asked to leave the virtual room so that the committee can deliberate on your proposal. The committee will decide whether to (a) approve your proposal, (b) approve your proposal with specific qualifications, or (c) not approve your proposal.
You will be invited back into the room and informed of the committee's decision.
If your proposal is approved with qualifications, you will need to address those items prior to moving forward with your research. If your proposal is not approved, your committee will give guidance regarding your next steps.
Once your proposal is approved, your committee chair will work with you to complete the Approval of Dissertation Proposal form and collect the necessary signatures.

Institutional Review Board (IRB)

Once your proposal is approved by your committee, you will need to work with your chair to submit your research proposal to the UWL Institutional Review Board (IRB). You may not collect any data prior to receiving approval from IRB. Visit the UWL IRB site for details on proposals, deadlines, and processes. It is important to note that the IRB only meets a few times each semester; so, you will want to be prepared to meet their deadlines.

Dissertation Defense

As with the proposal, your committee chair will determine when your dissertation is ready to be defended and will offer guidance in how to share it with other members of the committee. Although much of the dissertation defense mirrors the proposal defense, there are slight distinctions between them. The dissertation defense details, outlined here, should be read closely.

The dissertation defense is a meeting of your full committee that should be scheduled for 2 hours. You are responsible for identifying a meeting time that works for all committee members.
The defense will take place online (via Zoom, WebEx, or similar virtual format). The chair is responsible for organizing the online meeting and ensuring that all committee members have access to and can use the virtual meeting format.
The dissertation defense is a public meeting , meaning that anyone may attend by joining remotely. To that end, the dissertation defense must be publicly advertised - and the access link made available - for at least two weeks prior to the defense. Your chair will work with the SAA Administrative Department Assistant and Graduate Studies to secure public notification of the defense.
The defense will begin with a 15-20-minute presentation by you to the committee. This presentation should provide an overview of the dissertation, focusing specifically on the research study, results, and implications.
The committee members will then ask questions, pose challenges, discuss concerns, and offer suggestions. In general, the chair will know in advance of the defense meeting if committee members have major concerns. In that case, the chair will work with you prior to the meeting to ensure you are prepared to address such concerns.
After discussion concludes, you will be asked to leave the virtual room so that the committee can deliberate on the dissertation. The committee will decide whether to (a) approve the dissertation, (b) approve the dissertation with specific qualifications, or (c) not approve the dissertation.

Final Submission

Passing the defense does not indicate that the dissertation process is complete. The defense usually results in recommended revisions to final documents, potentially including reanalysis of data or significant rewriting. If the dissertation is approved with qualifications, you will need to address those items prior to submitting the final version for editing. You should be prepared to make changes and should schedule enough time to meet the document submission deadline listed in the Ed.D. Handbook (two weeks is typically not enough time).

Previously, Ed.D. students submitted their final version to the Thesis Editor. Beginning in Fall 2022, SAA's Writing Consultant and Program Manager will serve as the final editor. To ensure a successful final submission of the dissertation, you will need to do the following:

Be familiar with the dissertation and thesis guidelines specified by the UWL Graduate Council.
Be familiar with the deadlines provided in the Ed.D. Student Handbook to ensure there is ample time to meet them.
Work with your committee chair to ensure the committee's recommendations are sufficiently addressed.
Follow the steps outlined in the Final Submission tab.

SAA Dissertation Editing Process Overview

After successfully defending your dissertation, you will follow the steps outlined on Graduate & Extended Learning's Dissertation Completion webpage, including:

Make revisions to your dissertation as required by your committee
This process can take longer than expected; SAA highly encourages students to work on formatting prior to their defense.
Graduate and Extended Learning has published some helpful formatting videos and the SAA writing consultant has published an SAAL Dissertation Editing Checklist to ensure your document meets the university formatting requirements
If you run into a problem you can’t fix, please reach out to the SAA writing consultant ( [email protected] )
Final copy of dissertation (Word file)
Completed Dissertation Editing Checklist (located in SAAL Canvas site)
(It's recommended to cc: your chair on this email)
Once all edits are complete, the editor will email a final copy of your dissertation to Graduate and Extended Learning
Complete the copyright release and order form
Monitor your email for a message from the Dean of Graduate and Extended Learning that includes a final copy of your document with the dean's signature
Submit your final manuscript to ProQuestETD after the dean has signed the document ( optional )

To graduate in a specific semester, you must have an initial copy of your dissertation sent to the editor by the following deadlines:

Bonne lecture !

Sujet de la dissertation : Que reste-t-il de la théorie de l’écran législatif ?

François Mitterrand, ancien Président de la République énonce en 1988, à la veille de l’ouverture de la première cohabitation de la Vème République, la citation restée célèbre « La Constitution, rien que la Constitution, toute la Constitution ».

En effet, à cette occasion, il rappelait l’idée selon laquelle la Constitution est la norme suprême dans l’ordre juridique français et que toutes les normes inférieures doivent théoriquement la respecter. Hans Kelsen, au début du XXème siècle, dans son ouvrage Théorie pure du droit , a d’ailleurs défini la notion de hiérarchie des normes : cette fameuse pyramide fondée sur le principe de légalité selon laquelle toute norme doit être conforme à la norme supérieure pour pouvoir être appliquée, la Constitution se trouvant à son sommet.

Cette primauté pouvait néanmoins être discutée dès lors que, selon le principe de séparation des pouvoirs , le juge administratif ne pouvait pas contrôler la constitutionnalité d’une loi comme en témoigne l’arrêt Arrighi (1936). En effet, à cette occasion, le juge se déclarait incompétent pour apprécier la constitutionnalité d’une loi. Or c’est de cette incapacité que découle la théorie de la loi écran.

On parle en effet de théorie de « loi écran » ou « d’écran législatif » lorsque la loi, contenant des dispositions de fond, est précisée ou sert de fondement à des actes administratifs. Puisque les juges ordinaires ne sont pas juges de la constitutionnalité de la loi, ils ne peuvent pas non plus être juges de la constitutionnalité des dispositions qui la prolongent. Alors, sanctionner ces actes administratifs, serait déjà être juge constitutionnel. Cette théorie n’est pas sans poser de problème : en empêchant de sanctionner la violation par l’administration de la Constitution, on retire à cette dernière son caractère de norme suprême, ce qui reste paradoxal au regard de la hiérarchie des normes.

D’autres États ne rencontrent cependant pas ce problème. Ainsi, par exemple, le système américain autorise de manière historique le juge à procéder à un contrôle de constitutionnalité des lois par voie d’exception : les lois ne peuvent donc pas faire écran entre la Constitution et les actes administratifs.

Or, après plusieurs échecs infructueux, a été introduit, avec la révision constitutionnelle de 2008, un mécanisme de contrôle de constitutionnalité de la loi par voie d’exception (c’est-à-dire à l’occasion d’un litige). En effet, le juge administratif comme judiciaire peut être saisi d’une question prioritaire de constitutionnalité (QPC) qui sera portée devant le Conseil constitutionnel (article 61-1 de la Constitution). Cela devrait entraîner une disparition de la loi écran. D’autant que la QPC fait suite à la reconnaissance progressive par le juge administratif du pouvoir de contrôler la compatibilité de la loi avec les normes internationales dont certaines garantissent des droits similaires à ceux que garantit la Constitution. L’arsenal juridique pour lutter contre la théorie de l’écran législatif s’élargit encore avec la théorie de l’écran législatif transparent.

Par conséquent, il est possible de se demander si la théorie de la loi écran a pu survivre à l’avènement des moyens de contrôle de la loi par voie d’exception dans le droit français.

Dès lors qu’il était impossible, selon la théorie de la loi-écran, au juge administratif de contrôler la loi promulguée (I), l’évolution du système et l’introduction de la QPC a-t-il vraiment remis en cause l’avenir de la loi-écran (II) ?

I/ La théorie de la loi-écran comme conséquence de l’impossibilité par le juge administratif de contrôler la loi promulguée

La théorie de la loi-écran, est le principe selon lequel le juge administratif se refuse à déclarer illégal un acte administratif conforme à une loi mais contraire à un acte de valeur juridique supérieure. C’est pourquoi la loi écran respecte les principes fondamentaux du droit public (A). Cependant, le contrôle de conventionnalité reste un moyen de limiter le champ d’application de cette loi-écran (B).

A/ La théorie de la loi écran comme résultat des principes fondamentaux du droit public

Aux vues de la hiérarchie des normes, la Constitution s’impose à toutes les autorités politiques et juridictionnelles. En conséquence, le législateur, prenant part au pouvoir législatif se doit de respecter la Constitution auquel cas sa loi sera désignée inconstitutionnelle par le Conseil constitutionnel. De même pour le pouvoir exécutif, qui lui aussi se doit de respecter la Constitution au risque que ses actes administratifs soient considérés comme contraires à cette même Constitution par le juge administratif.

Cependant, cela comporte des complications. En effet, la théorie de la loi écran implique que lorsque le législateur prend une loi, il est possible que certains actes administratifs soient pris sur son fondement. Ainsi en est-il par exemple des décrets d’application ou de décisions individuelles prises par une autorité exécutive. Ici, il est possible que l’acte administratif ne fasse que prolonger, se borne à réitérer les dispositions de la loi. Alors, si le juge administratif contrôle la constitutionnalité de l’acte administratif, il contrôlera en même temps la constitutionnalité de la loi.

Aussi, le Conseil d’État a refusé le 6 novembre 1936 dans une décision Arrighi , d’être le juge de la constitutionnalité de la loi. D’ailleurs, en 1958, ce n’est pas au juge qu’a été confié le rôle de la constitutionnalité de la loi, mais au Conseil constitutionnel. Afin d’expliquer cette idée, deux arguments doivent être mis en évidence : la séparation des pouvoirs et la légitimité des législateurs.

La séparation des pouvoirs, théorisée dès Aristote, sera largement développée par Locke et par Montesquieu. Cette théorie est un principe fondamental qui sépare les pouvoirs exécutif, législatif et judiciaire en trois autorités bien distinctes qui peuvent néanmoins entretenir des rapports selon qu’elle est dite stricte ou souple. Mais, en l’espèce, le juge administratif qui jugerait d’un acte administratif couvert par une loi jugerait aussi de la loi, ce qu’il ne peut pas faire puisqu’il fait partie de l’autorité judiciaire. Il empiéterait sur le pouvoir législatif et méconnaîtrait la séparation des pouvoirs. C’est pourtant ce qu’il ferait en jugeant de la constitutionnalité des actes administratifs qui prolongent une loi. La seconde idée est un motif plus politique. En effet, le législateur est le représentant du souverain. Or le souverain, parce qu’il est le pouvoir suprême, ne peut pas voir ses décisions contrôlées. L’inverse reviendrait à reconnaître un pouvoir supérieur à celui du souverain logiquement, le juge ne peut contredire le souverain et donc contrôler une loi qui est issue de sa volonté ou de celle de ses représentants.

Cette situation n’est pas sans poser de problèmes, en effet, à cause de la loi écran, naissent des actes administratifs contraires à la Constitution qu’on ne peut pas abroger. Ainsi, il est obligatoire d’appliquer certains actes administratifs qui peuvent être contraires à la Constitution.

B/ Le contrôle de conventionnalité ; moyen de réduire le champ d’application de la loi écran

Dans un premier temps, il est important de rappeler que le juge administratif a essayé d’empêcher ce mécanisme de loi écran. On ne peut sanctionner la loi à cause de la séparation des pouvoirs. Ainsi, le juge administratif cherche des moyens alternatifs. Bertrand SEILLER, professeur à l’Université Paris II, remarque dans son ouvrage Droit Administratif , que le premier élément que le juge peut voir pour contrer la loi écran, c’est d’interpréter la loi. Le Conseil d’état l’a d’ailleurs déjà fait, dans une décision Dame Lamotte du 17 février 1950 . En effet, dans le cadre de cette décision le Conseil d’Etat estime qu’une disposition législative interdisant tout recours contre une concession n’excluait pas le recours pour excès de pouvoir . Appliqué à la loi écran, ce travail d’interprétation permet de surmonter le problème de cette loi écran puisqu’en interprétant la loi, on la rend conforme à la Constitution. En effet, cela peut avoir deux conséquences :

Soit l’acte administratif prolonge une loi désormais conforme à la Constitution : il est donc lui-même conforme à la Constitution.
Soit l’acte administratif prolonge mal la loi : il est donc contraire à la loi et donc il est possible de le censurer.

Le développement du contrôle de conventionnalité, c’est-à-dire du contrôle visant à établir la conformité ou la non-conformité d’une norme de droit interne à une convention internationale, est un autre moyen. Conformément à l’article 55 de la Constitution de 1958, le contrôle de conventionnalité vise surtout à assurer la supériorité des engagements internationaux et européens ratifiés par la France sur les lois et les règlements internes. Dans la décision IVG du 15 janvier 1975, le Conseil constitutionnel invite le juge administratif et le juge judiciaire à contrôler la compatibilité des lois avec une convention internationale. La Cour de cassation va accepter directement à travers une décision du 24 mai 1975 Jacques Vabre . Le Conseil d’Etat, lui, mettra plus de temps, mais il finira lui aussi par accepter en 1989 dans une décision Nicolo . Par le biais de cette décision, le Conseil d’Etat accepte de réaliser le contrôle de conventionnalité.

Désormais, le juge administratif, se déclare compétent pour écarter l’application d’une loi dans un litige, dès lors que celle-ci ne serait pas compatible avec un traité auquel la France serait partie. Alors, si un acte administratif est pris en application d’une loi, et que cet acte administratif est contraire à la Constitution, le juge administratif dispose désormais d’un moyen de ne pas en faire application. En effet, à défaut de contrôler la conformité de la loi à la Constitution, il pourra en étudier la compatibilité avec les traités. Si la loi n’est pas compatible avec les traités le juge administratif doit l’écarter, mais en conséquence il écarte aussi les actes administratifs pris sur son fondement.

Finalement, le juge administratif ne peut pas juger la loi, mais il peut écarter l’acte administratif pris sur le fondement de cette loi et donc en écarter son application. La loi peut désormais être sanctionnée à défaut d’être abrogée, mais c’est surtout avec la question prioritaire de constitutionnalité que la théorie de la loi écran se réduit très fortement.

II/ La QPC ; vers une disparation de la loi écran

La question prioritaire de constitutionnalité, système récent, permet une possible future disparation de la loi-écran ou alors une forte réduction de celle-ci (A). Cependant, la théorie de l’écran législatif existe toujours et persiste malgré la menace (B).

A/ Le contrôle QPC ; une très forte réduction de la théorie de la loi écran

La question prioritaire de constitutionnalité (QPC) permet à tout justiciable de contester la constitutionnalité d’une disposition législative à l’occasion d’un procès devant une juridiction administrative ou judiciaire, lorsqu’il estime qu’un texte porte atteinte aux droits et libertés que la Constitution garantit. C’est un mécanisme utile car lorsqu’il s’agit de la loi écran, le contrôle de conventionnalité détient certaines limites.

Tout d’abord, il est vrai que les conventions internationales représentent un catalogue de droits qui ressemblent à ceux qui sont protégés par la Constitution. Mais tous les droits ne sont pas forcément présents dans les conventions internationales et dans la Constitution. Ainsi, par exemple, le principe de fraternité auquel le Conseil constitutionnel a donné valeur constitutionnelle, dans une décision QPC du 6 juillet 2018, ne se retrouve pas dans la CEDH. En conséquence, il est tout à fait possible qu’une loi, soit contraire à la Constitution mais conforme aux conventions internationales. Alors, le juge administratif ne pourra pas contrôler la constitutionnalité d’un acte administratif pris sur le fondement de cette loi et ne pourra pas non plus empêcher l’application de cet acte administratif par le biais du contrôle de conventionnalité.

De plus, le contrôle de conventionnalité n’exige qu’une compatibilité entre la loi et le traité là où le contrôle de constitutionnalité exige la conformité de la loi avec la Constitution. Ainsi, le contrôle de conventionnalité est plus léger que le contrôle de constitutionnalité. Alors, quand bien même un droit serait protégé par la Constitution et par les traités, il est possible qu’une loi soit considérée comme contraire à la Constitution et comme compatible avec un traité. Ici, le juge administratif est impuissant contre la théorie de la loi écran.

D’autre part, le contrôle de conventionnalité a des effets inter partes (entre partie). C’est-à-dire qu’il s’applique entre les parties au litige. C’est-à-dire qu’une loi déclarée contraire à une convention internationale ne disparaît pas de l’ordre juridique, mais se borne à ne pas être appliquée dans le litige en question (où a été soulevé le contrôle de conventionnalité). Le problème est que les juridictions administratives sont nombreuses, et que la jurisprudence est fixée par le Conseil d’Etat. En somme, tant que le Conseil d’Etat n’a pas déclaré une disposition législative comme étant compatible avec une convention internationale, toutes les juridictions administratives peuvent décider en conscience de la compatibilité ou non de cette disposition législative avec une convention internationale. La loi pourra donc faire écran devant une juridiction A mais pas devant une juridiction B.

En conséquence, rien n’indique que le contrôle de conventionnalité soit un moyen efficace de combattre en tous lieux la théorie de la loi écran. La QPC ne souffre pas de ces limites. Ainsi, dans l’hypothèse où le juge administratif, se voit saisi d’un litige dans lequel un acte administratif possiblement contraire à la Constitution est couvert par une loi, il suffira qu’une QPC soit soulevée pour que la théorie de la loi écran cesse. En effet, le juge constitutionnel saisi pour trancher de la constitutionnalité ou non d’une loi, rendra une décision d’où le Conseil d’Etat n’aura qu’à tirer les conséquences suivantes :

Soit la loi est conforme à la Constitution, auquel cas l’acte administratif pris sur son fondement l’est aussi.
Soit la loi n’est pas conforme à la Constitution : dans ce cas, le juge constitutionnel l’abroge et cette loi ne peut donc plus couvrir l’acte administratif (dont on peut facilement obtenir l’abrogation par le recours pour excès de pouvoir).

Néanmoins, il est possible que le développement de la QPC ne suffise pas à faire disparaître la théorie de la loi écran. C’est ce dont témoigne notamment la jurisprudence du Conseil d’Etat. En effet, la Haute juridiction administrative, théorisera la notion d’écran transparent (l’écran est dit transparent si la loi ne contient pas de véritable règle de fond (Arrêt Quintin, 1991)) et il en donnera une définition extensive dans une décision Air Algérie en date de 2012. Or, la QPC est entrée en vigueur le 1 er mars 2010. Si la QPC suffisait à combattre définitivement la théorie de la loi écran, alors comment expliquer que le Conseil d’Etat élabore encore des moyens pour mettre un terme à cette théorie ?

B/ Une légère persistance de la théorie de l’écran législatif malgré le contrôle QPC

Un problème fondamental est posé ici. En effet, il faut saisir le Conseil constitutionnel pour qu’il y’ait une QPC. Autrement dit, le Conseil constitutionnel ne se saisit pas automatiquement : il faut que la QPC soit provoquée. Or, si jamais la QPC n’est pas soulevée, le Conseil constitutionnel ne se prononcera pas sur la loi déjà promulguée. Ainsi, on a une loi qui continuera de faire « écran ».

Suite à cela, toutes les QPC soulevées ne vont pas jusqu’au Conseil constitutionnel. Il y a un rôle de filtre qui est réalisé notamment par le Conseil d’Etat. Celui-ci va se demander si la question est nouvelle, réelle et sérieuse. Si jamais il estime que ce n’est pas le cas, il ne transmet pas la QPC au juge constitutionnel. Ainsi, le Conseil constitutionnel ne peut pas abroger la loi et la loi continue de faire écran. Or, il est déjà arrivé que le Conseil d’Etat s’autorise à réaliser un contrôle très poussé de la possible inconstitutionnalité de la loi, dans le cadre de son rôle de « filtre ». Ainsi en est-il par exemple, dans une décision CUAZ du 27 octobre 2010, dans laquelle le Conseil d’État a considéré qu’une loi parce qu’elle ne portait pas excessivement atteinte à la Constitution, ne méritait pas d’être transmise au Conseil constitutionnel. Ce qui signifie donc, que le contrôle de constitutionnalité par voie QPC repose sur la bonne volonté et sur l’analyse du Conseil d’Etat. En somme, il est possible qu’une loi potentiellement contraire à la Constitution ne soit pas transmise au Conseil constitutionnel. De fait, le Conseil constitutionnel ne pourra pas la censurer. Ainsi, la loi continuera donc à couvrir l’acte administratif.

En définitive, il semblerait que la théorie de la loi écran puisse persister dans une situation plus théorique qu’autre chose. En effet, l’acte administratif qui serait couvert par une loi compatible avec les traités auxquels la France participe, mais qui serait contraire à la Constitution ne peut pas être censuré par le juge constitutionnel soit saisi restera protégé par la théorie de la loi écran.

Ainsi cela signifie que la loi écran se restreint de plus en plus, sans pour autant totalement disparaître.
