Abstract

[fre] L'objectif de cet article est d'expliquer les disparités des performances des sec­teurs de l'Industrie française, en prenant en compte l'existence des groupes de sociétés. L'hypothèse centrale est que l'introduction de ces agents remet en cause le schéma explicatif traditionnel, qui relie le taux de profit d'un secteur aux principales variables de structure de ce secteur.. En utilisant la technique statistique du « changement de régime », on met en évidence à partir d'un échantillon de 280 secteurs de la nomenclature 600, observés en 1974, deux relations significativement différentes dans deux sous-populations sectorielles distinguées par un seuil critique de présence des groupes. Si dans les secteurs où le poids des groupes est inférieur au seuil critique, les structures de marché expliquent convenablement les taux de marge, il n'en est plus de même dans les autres secteurs. Ce résultat suggère que le mode de formation des prix et donc de fixation des taux de profits sont différents dans ces deux types de secteurs. [eng] suggests that price formation behavior and determination of profit rates are different in these two types of industries.
