In the winter 1983 issue of Canadian Public Administration Murray and McMillan developed a “conceptual map” of the overall relationship between business and government in Canada. They organized the current literature into five schools of thought, each of which supported a different set of explanations for the present state of business‐government relations in this country. This article presents partial results of a 1984 survey of 243 chief executive officers and senior federal public officials as evidence in support of the “Interpretive School of Thought.” It is argued that subjective interpretations of reality significantly affect the outcome of the interactive/consultative process between business and government. Sommaire Dans le numéro d'hiver 1983 d' Administration publique du Canada, Murray et McMillan ont élabore “une carte conceptuelle” des relations globales liant les en‐treprises et le gouvernement au Canada. lis ont organisé la documentation existante en cinq écoles de pensee, chacune defendant des points de vue differents quant a l'etat actuel des relations gouvernement‐entreprises dans ce pays. Comme pièce a conviction du soutien que reçoit “l'École de pensée interprétative,” cet article présente les résultats partiels d'une enquête effectuée en 1984 auprès de deux cent quarante trois présidents‐directeurs généraux et hauts fonctionnaires fédéraux. On y avance que l'interpretation subjective de la réalité affecte beaucoup les résultats du processus d'intéraction/consultation existant entre le gouvernement et les entreprises
