Populärmusik, kluster och industriell konkurrenskraft : En ekonomisk-geografisk studie av svensk musikindustri / Popular music, clusters, and industrial competitiveness

Hallencreutz, Daniel January 2002 (has links)
<p>The economic importance of design-intensive and cultural-products industries has grown in recent decades. One case in point is Sweden, where internationally competitive industries have emerged in areas such as multimedia, fashion, and music. During the 1990s, research in economic geography and related disciplines concerned with the link between geographical location and competitive advantage has found an important source of inspiration in the cluster approach. The thesis examines the relationship between spatial clustering and industrial competitive-ness by undertaking a series of empirical studies that explore various dimensions of the Swedish music industry. The thesis demonstrates that the Swedish music industry embraces a multitude of actors in a complex, spatially clustered production system characterised by dense social networks, which transcend individual firms. Processes and mechanisms that have enhanced the creation and diffusion of strategic knowledge as well as co-operative competition further promote the competitiveness of this cluster. Moreover, the thesis demonstrates that it is necessary to carefully consider the relation between the local milieu and the global music industrial production and distribution system in order to fully understand competitiveness in the music industry. Finally, the thesis examines how the cluster concept has been put into practice in Swedish industrial and regional policies concerning cultural industries.</p>

Du mythe au jeu : approche anthropo-communicationnelle du Nord : des récits médiévaux scandinaves au MMORPG Age of Conan : Hyborian Adventures / From Myth to Game : anthropo-Communicational Approach of the North : from the Medieval Scandinavian Stories to the MMORPG Age of Conan : Hyborian Adventures

Di Filippo, Laurent 04 November 2016 (has links)
Un rhinocéros Berserker, des hordes de Vanir déferlant sur la Cimmérie, le fils d’Ymir emprisonné... les références aux récits médiévaux scandinaves couramment désignés par les termes « mythes nordiques » sont nombreuses dans le jeu de rôle en ligne massivement multi-joueurs Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures. Mais, comment des éléments issus de sources presque millénaires sont-ils devenus des composantes d’une production vidéoludique contemporaine ? À partir de ce cas d’étude, l’auteur de ce travail s’intéresse, de façon plus générale, aux phénomènes culturels et à leurs dynamiques à travers leurs processus de transmission, de manifestation et d’appropriation. Pour ce faire, il s’appuie sur une démarche qualitative et empirique à la croisée des Sciences de l’information et de la communication et des Études scandinaves afin de développer une approche anthropo-communicationnelle, fortement imprégnée par les travaux en Anthropologie. Celle-ci se fonde sur une méthodologie à la fois linguistique, socio-historique, d’observation participante sur le temps long et un suivi de veille sur le temps très long. Elle permet de constater que, des manuscrits médiévaux aux jeux vidéo en ligne, en passant par la littérature de fantasy américaine des années 1930, le sens donné aux références aux ressources culturelles du passé est sans cesse transformé et construit en fonction de la situation dans laquelle elles sont manifestées. Ces dynamiques culturelles s’inscrivent alors au cœur de la problématique du changement et de la permanence et mettent en lumière les constructions d’un imaginaire du commun tout en remettant au centre de la réflexion le travail des acteurs / A berserker rhinoceros, hordes of Vanir swarming upon Cimmeria, Ymir’s son imprisoned … references to the medieval scandinavian stories often designated as « Norse myths » are numerous in the massively multi-player online rôle playing game Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures. But, how could elements coming from sources which are almost a thousand years old become parts of a contemporary videogame ? From this case study, the author of this work takes a more general interest in cultural phenomenons and their dynamics through their transmission, manifestation and appropriation processes. In order to do this, he leans on a qualitative and empirical research which articulates communication studies with scandinavian studies in order to build an anthropo-communicational approach, which is strongly influenced by Anthropology. This approach is based on a multi-layered methodology which includes linguistics, socio-historical method, long term participant observation and very long term information monitoring. It allows to observe that, from the medieval manuscripts to online video games, through american fantasy literature from the 1930’s, the significations which people give to past cultural ressources are always transformed and built according to the situation in which they are expressed. Such cultural dynamics fall within the heart of research questions about change and permanence and highlight the ways by which an imaginary of the common is built at the same time as it puts the work of the social actors at the center of the reflection

Indústria cultural e música : reestruturação da indústria fonográfica e o mercado da música em Sergipe

Varjão, Demétrio Rodrigues 30 June 2014 (has links)
Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / The objective of this study is to analyze the effect of changes occurring in the music industry in recent decades on the market shows in the state of Sergipe, from the analysis of the strategic realignment of the major labels and the performance of key players operating in this market the state and local entertainment companies. The central issue is to resume their theoretical and conceptual elements order developed under the Political Economy of Communication and Culture (EPC) to propose an abstract analytical model that allows to describe the structure of the music of Sergipe market from its multiplicity of elements determinants, hierarchical and conflict between its main agents relationships. The results show how the state and capital work in strengthening the market shows in Sergipe, seeking to ensure the conditions for accumulation and maintenance of political and ideological domination. In this sense, represented an improvement on the model of |supply chain| approach that has had some prominence in developing analyzes of the music market, which, however, faces the shortcomings of a topical, partial analysis. / O objetivo deste trabalho consiste em analisar o efeito das transformações ocorridas na indústria da música nas últimas décadas sobre o mercado de shows no estado de Sergipe, a partir da análise da readequação estratégica das grandes gravadoras e da atuação dos principais agentes que atuam no neste mercado, o Estado e empresas locais de entretenimento. A questão central é retomar elementos de ordem teórico-conceitual desenvolvidas no âmbito da Economia Política da Comunicação e da Cultura (EPC) para propor um modelo analítico abstrato, que possibilite descrever a estrutura do mercado da música de Sergipe a partir da sua multiplicidade de elementos determinantes, relações hierárquicas e de contradição entre os seus principais agentes. Os resultados evidenciam como o Estado e o capital atuam no fortalecimento do mercado de shows em Sergipe, buscando assegurar as condições para acumulação e manutenção da dominação político-ideológica. Nesse sentido, representou um avanço em relação ao modelo da cadeia produtiva , abordagem que tem tido certa proeminência no desenvolvimento de análises do mercado da música, que, no entanto, esbarra nas insuficiências de uma análise tópica, parcial.

Postavení videoherního průmyslu mezi kreativními průmysly v České republice / The position of video game industry among the creative industries in the Czech Republic

Roubíčková, Anna January 2015 (has links)
The diploma thesis entitled "The position of video game industry among the creative industries in the Czech Republic" brings up a complex view on the Czech video game market. It has been created based on data acquired from numerous local and international scientific studies and also using interviews with selected representatives of the Czech video game market. It has turned out that the Czech video game industry builds up its economical position step by step. Its year-on-year turnover grows and thus gradually counts up to even larger portion of the return of cultural and creative industries. This happens spontaneously, without systematic support from the national or local governments. However, such a support is common in other European countries. Interested parties that play a part in the Czech video game market would be (according to conducted interviews) very interested in this kind of support, mainly in form of tax relief and the promotion of local developers abroad (which would also bring foreign investors into the country). Thus, the claim that the implementation of institutional support of Czech video game would solve its two most acute problems, is valid. All addressed representatives (coming from different segments of video game market) have confirmed that these two issues are the lack of financial and marketing support. In case these barriers of market development are removed, the process of growth of the Czech video game market as a strong member of the industry would speed up significantly. All abovementioned facts, along with other aspects of the problematics, are reflected in SOAR analysis that brings the thesis to an end.

Les éditeurs indépendants au Chili (2000-2005) : un développement contemporain des industries culturelles

Dominguez, Maria E. 03 1900 (has links)
Cette thèse porte sur l’émergence sur la scène chilienne d’un nouvel acteur dans la production du livre, acteur qui s’organise à la fin des années 1990 en se définissant lui-même en tant qu’éditeur indépendant et qui, au cours des premières années du XXIe siècle, élargit cette définition pour inclure le phénomène de l’édition autonome et le domaine de l’édition universitaire. Le point de ralliement de ces acteurs, organisés autour de l’association Editores de Chile, est la reprise et l’affirmation d’un rôle moderne des éditeurs de livres, au sens des Lumières. On peut constater l’articulation entre les revendications spécifiques du secteur et ses positions politiques sur la valeur symbolique de la production culturelle, sur son rôle en tant que facteur de construction identitaire et démocratique car l’accès aux livres ne peut pas être restreint par l’action sans contrepoids du marché. L’angle théorique que nous proposons est celui des théories des industries culturelles tout en intégrant aussi les contributions des études culturelles. En nous situant dans une perspective de l’économie politique des industries culturelles, nous chercherons à redéfinir le concept d’indépendance par le biais d’une analyse des stratégies d’unités économiques (les maisons d’édition) et des rapports entre ces unités et leurs contextes géographiques, politiques et culturels spécifiques. Nous tenons aussi en considération des éléments macrostructurels, mais en considérant que leur capacité d’influence est toujours relative et, en conséquence, doit faire l’objet d’une réévaluation en fonction des rapports de forces et des conjonctures politiques, économiques et sociales spécifiques. Nous pensons que l’indépendance n’est pas un phénomène qui n’est pas exclusif au monde de l’édition. Nous avons fait le constat qu’il existe aussi au sein des industries de l’enregistrement sonore, de l’audiovisuel et des médias comme la presse, la radio et, en moindre proportion, la télévision. En termes méthodologiques, nous proposons une approche qui combine des méthodes et des instruments quantitatifs et qualitatifs, c’est-à-dire, l’analyse des statistiques de l’édition au Chili (fréquences des titres, genres et auteurs), des entrevues semi-structurées et une analyse documentaire. Avant d’aborder la description et l’analyse de la production de livres au Chili et du sens que les éditeurs donnent à l’indépendance et à leurs prises de position dans le champ culturel, nous proposons une description historique et industrielle de l’édition du livre chilien. Cette description permet de comprendre la naissance et le développement du secteur en regard des processus politiques, économiques et sociaux du Chili et de l’Amérique latine, ainsi que sa situation actuelle en regard des nouvelles conditions politiques et économiques qui résultent du processus de globalisation et des transformations néolibérales locales et internationales. La recherche examine ensuite le caractère de la production de livres publiés au Chili entre les années 2000 et 2005 en considérant les titres produits, les auteurs et les genres. Cette analyse permet aussi d’établir des différences entre ces maisons d’édition et celles qui relèvent des grands conglomérats transnationaux de l’édition de livres. Cette analyse comparative nous permet d’établir de manière concluante des différences quant au nombre et á la diversité et l’intérêt culturel des livres publiés entre les éditeurs transnationaux et les éditeurs indépendants regroupés sous le nom de Editores de Chile. Cette analyse permet aussi d’établir des liens précis entre la production des éditeurs indépendants et leurs objectifs culturels et politiques explicites. Nous faisons ensuite état, par le biais de l’exposition et de l’analyse des entrevues réalisées avec les éditeurs, des trajectoires de ces organisations en tenant compte des périodes historiques spécifiques qui ont servi de contexte à leur création et à leur développement. Nous mettons ici en rapport ces trajectoires des éditeurs, les définitions de leurs missions et les stratégies mobilisées. Nous tenons aussi compte des dimensions internationales de ces définitions qui s’expriment dans leur participation au sein d’organisations internationales telle que l’Alliance internationale d’éditeurs indépendants (Gijón 2000 et Dakar 2003) et, spécifiquement, leur expression dans la coopération avec des maisons d’édition latino-américaines. Les entrevues et l’analyse documentaire nous permettent d‘entrevoir les tensions entre la politique culturelle de l’État chilien, en contraste avec des définitions, des objectifs et des actions politiques de Editores de Chile. Nous relions donc dans l’analyse, l’émergence de l’édition indépendante et les résistances qu’engendrent la globalisation des marchés culturels et les mouvements de concentration de la propriété, ainsi que les effets et réponses aux transformations néolibérales au plan des politiques culturelles publiques. Nous concluons alors à la nécessité d’une économie politique critique des industries culturelles qui puisse se pencher sur ces phénomènes et rendre compte non seulement de rapports entre conglomérats et indépendants et du développement des filières de la production culturelle, mais aussi du déploiement des logiques culturelles et politiques sous-jacentes, voire des projets historiques, qui se confrontent dans le champ des industries culturelles. / This thesis discusses the emergence of a new actor in the production of books in Chile. This actor arises in the late nineties as a group of independent publishers, and in the first few years of this decade, expands to include university publishing. The point of coincidence and action of these actors, organized in the association Editors of Chile, is the recuperation and assertion of a modern role for the figure of editor, in the sense of the Age of Enlightenment. We can confirm the articulation between the specific demands of publishers and the political position adopted on the symbolic value of cultural production and its role as an element of identity- and democracy-building, under the assumption that access to books should not be restricted to the rules of the market. The theoretical focus we suggest is that of the theory of cultural industries, including contributions from cultural studies. From the perspective of the political economy of cultural industries, we seek to redefine the concept of independence through an analysis of the strategies used by economic units (publishers) and the relationship between these units and their geographical, political and cultural context. We also take into account the macro-structural factors, but with the understanding that their influence is always relative and, in consequence, should be subject to re-evaluation in terms of the relationships of power and specific political, economic and social scenarios. We believe this is a phenomenon that is not exclusive to the field of books. We have corroborated that this also takes place in the field of music, audio-visual productions and the media, such as radio, and to a lesser extent, television. In terms of methodology, we suggest a mixed focus, one that combines quantitative and qualitative methods and instruments. These are the statistical analysis of the production of Chilean publishers (frequency of titles, genres and authors), semi-structured interviews and documents analysis. Before discussing the description and analysis of the production of books in Chile and the significance publishers give to independence along with their positions in the field of culture, we set forth a historical and industrial description of Chilean books. This description allows us to comprehend its creation and development in the political, economic and social context in Chile and Latin America, within the new conditions arising from the globalization process and local and international neoliberal transformations. This investigation then examines the nature of publishing in Chile from 2000-2005, taking into account titles, authors and genres. This analysis allows us to establish differences between organized independent publishers and the big transnational publishing houses. These differences are evident in terms of the number, diversity and cultural interest of the publications. In addition, this analysis allows us to establish specific ties between the production of Editors of Chile and the cultural and political objectives of their discourse. scenarios.

Este actor se organiza a fines de los años 1990, definiéndose como independiente y, en el curso de los primeros años del siglo XXI, amplía esta definición para incluir los campos de la edición autónoma y universitaria. El punto de encuentro y de acción de estos actores, organizados en la asociación Editores de Chile, es la recuperación y afirmación de un rol moderno de la figura del editor, en el sentido de la ilustración. Podemos constatar la articulación entre las reivindicaciones específicas del sector y la toma de posiciones políticas acerca del valor simbólico de la producción cultural, sobre su rol como factor de construcción identitaria y democrática, bajo el supuesto que el acceso al libro no puede constreñirse por la acción sin contrapeso del mercado. El enfoque teórico propuesto es el de la teoría de las industrias culturales, integrando desde allí contribuciones de los estudios culturales. Al situarnos en una perspectiva de la economía política de las industrias culturales, buscamos redefinir el concepto de la independencia por medio de un análisis de las estrategias desplegadas por unidades económicas (las editoriales) y las relaciones entre estas unidades y su contexto geográfico, político y cultural. Tomamos también en consideración elementos macro estructurales, pero considerando siempre que su capacidad de influencia es siempre relativa y, en consecuencia, debe ser objeto de una reevaluación en función de las relaciones de fuerzas y las coyunturas políticas, económicas y sociales específicas. Pensamos que se trata de un fenómeno que no es exclusivo del campo de libro. Hemos constatado que este fenómeno se manifiesta también en el campo de los sectores de la música, del audiovisual y de los medios, como la prensa, la radio y, en menor proporción, la televisión. En términos metodológicos, proponemos un enfoque mixto, es decir que combina métodos e instrumentos cuantitativos y cualitativos. Estos son el análisis estadístico de la producción editorial chilena (frecuencias de títulos, géneros y autores), entrevistas semiestructuradas y un análisis documental. Antes de abordar la descripción y el análisis de la producción de libros en Chile y el sentido que los editores le dan a la independencia junto con sus tomas de posición en el campo cultural, proponemos una descripción histórica e industrial del libro chileno. Esta descripción permite comprender el nacimiento y desarrollo del sector en el contexto de procesos políticos, económicos y sociales en Chile y América Latina y situarlo en relación a las nuevas condiciones que resultan del proceso de globalización y de las transformaciones neoliberales locales e internacionales. La investigación examina luego el carácter de la producción de libros en Chile entre los años 2000 et 2005, considerando los títulos producidos, los autores y los géneros. Este análisis permite establecer diferencias entre los editores independientes organizados y los grandes conglomerados transnacionales. Estas diferencias son visibles en términos del número, de la diversidad y del interés cultural de las publicaciones. Asimismo, el análisis permite establecer lazos precisos entre la producción de Editores de Chile y los objetivos culturales y políticos expresados en sus discursos. Establecemos luego, mediante la exposición y el análisis de las entrevistas realizadas con 10 editores miembros de la organización, las trayectorias de las editoriales en relación a los contextos históricos de su creación y desarrollo. Relacionamos dichas trayectorias con las definiciones de su misión y las estrategias movilizadas. Tomamos también en cuenta las dimensiones internacionales de estas definiciones, que se expresan en su participación en el seno de organizaciones internacionales como la Alianza de Editores Independientes (Gijón 2000 et Dakar 2003) y, específicamente, la expresión de esta cooperación en iniciativas conjuntas con editoriales latino-americanas y una editorial basca. Las entrevistas y el análisis documental nos permiten observar las tensiones entre un tipo de política cultural de parte del Estado, en contraste con las definiciones, los objetivos y las acciones políticas de Editores de Chile. En el análisis, vinculamos la emergencia de la edición independiente y las resistencias que la globalización de los mercados culturales y los movimientos de concentración de la propiedad engendran, así como los efectos y las respuestas a las transformaciones neoliberales en el plano de las políticas culturales públicas. Concluimos con la necesidad de una economía política crítica de las industrias culturales capaz de observar estos fenómenos y dar cuenta no solamente de las relaciones entre grandes conglomerados y editores independientes en el desarrollo de las cadenas de la producción cultural, sino también del despliegue de lógicas culturales y políticas que subyacen bajo estas relaciones, incluso proyectos históricos que se confrontan en el campo de las industrias culturales.
