Abstract

This work tends to contribute to develop a reflection on the theoretical frames used to analyze the structuring of the management control in family owned medium-sized companies. We strive to test the frame of the Actors Network Theory (Callon, 1986; Latour, 2013) on an established ground of research three industrial family owned medium-sized companies. The relevance of this frame in our three cases is confronted with the results stemming from recent works of Nobre and Zawadzki (2015) carrying on the structuring of the management control in a family company of the textile retail industry.
