International audienceInternational sport competitions continue to attract a high number of spectators and the potential political, community building and financial payoffs are such that the competition to become a host city is often fierce. France has several attractive cities with all of the resources required to host these events, but they have repeatedly failed (Summer Olympic Games 2008 and 2012, Winter Olympic Games 2018, etc.). Most of the studies that have explored these failures have done so from a resource-based view. But when a city has all the required resources, what other factors may have been decisive? Could a misfit in the conception of power during the negotiation process explain it? The paper aims to discuss these issues. – We looked at the specific failure of Marseille to host the 2007 America’s Cup and focused particularly on the conceptions of power held, respectively by Marseille representatives and the committee in charge of choosing the host city. In line with French qualitative methods we performed a single case study based on discourse analysis (23 interviews with the involved parties and 22 outside experts) to analyze the sources of power that Marseille and America’s Cup Management (ACM) had. – The authors found that Marseille and ACM had different sources of power. According to Weber’s categories, Marseille had an “Organization” source of power: “it’s is a structure and an organization that implies specific rules” and ACM had a “Property” source of power: “it’s a commercial structure that has ownership rights to this very special event.” Analysis of the interviews reveals that points of disagreement reflected differing conceptions of power, which suggests new perspectives for future research in the context of failed negotiations in sports. – Analyzing failure from another angle that the classical resource-based view: having the right resources is no longer enough; cities have to have the winning strategy
L'épitaxie de GaxIn(1-x)As/InP est étudiée en phase vapeur par la méthode aux hydrures. Deux séries d'expériences ont été effectuées respectivement, à haute température et basse température. Les résultats obtenus sont interprétés à partir d'une théorie cinétique qui prend en compte les réactions de déchloruration de la surface, le cracking de l'arsine et le non-équilibre entre les espèces As2 et As 4
National audienceThis article has for objective to propose an analysis tool, from the papers of Machiavelli (1513), of various types of powers present in international sports event relations. The choice to lean on Machiavelli justifies itself by the presence in sciences of management of models based on Weber (1947), itself inspired by the author of the «Prince». The results obtained on the ground of sports event managements will allow us to accept the tool and the presence of three different types of power present in the relations.Cet article a pour objectif de proposer un outil d’analyse, à partir des écrits de Machiavel (1513), des différents types de pouvoirs présents dans les relations sur les événementiels sportifs internationaux. Le choix de s’appuyer sur Machiavel se justifie par la présence en Sciences de Gestion de modèles basés sur Weber (1947), lui-même inspiré par l’auteur du « Prince ». Les résultats obtenus sur le terrain des événementiels sportifs nous permettront d’accepter l’outil créé et de mettre à jour la présence de trois types de pouvoir distincts présents dans les relations
