Abstract (EN)
We present the first steps of a network study of market organization based on the observation and
analysis of scheduled meetings between sellers, buyers, distributors, advertisers and producers at an
international trade show for television programs. We use a “linked-design” approach in which each level
(inter-individual and inter-organizational ) constitutes a specific exchange system of different resources
among actors present at this commercial event. We examine levels separately, but also jointly. We raise
the issue of the dynamics of such multilevel structures and provide a first approach to such dynamics by
looking at individual actors’ trajectories over time in the labor market created by the inter-organizational
network of companies represented at this fair.
