French to English translations [Non-PRO]
Social Sciences - Social Science, Sociology, Ethics, etc. / Subscription-based funding for technology projects in the 18thC
French term or phrase: logiques de conviction
En inscrivant le projet dans un horizon collectif, la souscription atténue par ailleurs le contrôle unique de l’entrepreneur et complexifie d’autant le rôle des souscripteurs et les *logiques de conviction* déployées à leur égard.

The text is discussing the role of subscription-based funding for projects. Suggestions for 'logiques de conviction'? Is it belief system(s)? ("...the role of subscribers and the belief systems applied to them.") It should be a fairly academic term.
