The recent global crisis is affecting people’s positions toward globalization. Can it be observed inside companies? Are managers’ views of globalization affected by the current crisis? Comparing a developed country (France) and an emerging market (India) would be really interesting as they may have diverging views on Globalization. Attitudes and social representations will be studied to identify differences among managers. Managers’ social profile (international openness, social background, work environment and managers education) will also be measured and linked to social representation. The results show different attitudes’ level according to the managers’ country of origin. It also validates the existence of a link between attitudes and representations and found that they vary according to the managers’ social profile.
