Abstract

(VF)Plusieurs recherches se sont intéressées au maintien des institutions et aux efforts qui y contribuent. Cependant, l’horizon temporel de ces efforts reste mal compris : reposent-ils sur des visions à long terme et des intérêts stratégiques, ou sont-ils essentiellement liés à des routines et des habitudes ? Cet article explore les efforts réalisés dans la filière musicale en lien avec le maintien de la propriété intellectuelle durant un épisode critique. Nous nous appuyons sur une série de 26 entretiens semi-directifs et sur un riche corpus de données secondaires. Nous contribuons ainsi au débat agence-structure et à la réflexion sur les différentes formes d’agence intervenant dans le maintien institutionnel. En particulier, nous suggérons plusieurs facteurs qui favorisent des efforts routiniers associés au maintien institutionnel et mettons en évidence la relation entre position sociale des acteurs et travail institutionnel en suggérant l’idée que les efforts stratégiques de maintien sont l’apanage des acteurs les plus puissants et les plus légitimes. (VA) Several scholars have focused their attention on institutional maintenance and on efforts which contribute to it. However, the temporal setting of these efforts is still misunderstood: do they rely on long-term visions and strategic interests, or are they related to routines and habits? This article explores the efforts achieved in the French music industry to maintain the intellectual property right regime during a critical time. This research is based on 26 semi-directive interviews and on a rich corpus of secondary data. We contribute to the agency-structure debate and to the understanding of different types of agency implied in institutional maintenance. In particular, this paper underlines several factors that foster habitual efforts associated to institutional maintaining. We also put to light the relationship between the social position of actors and institutional work, suggesting that strategic efforts towards institutional maintenance are achieved by the most powerful and the most legitimate actors.
