Économie numérique et industries de contenu : un nouveau paradigme pour les réseaux

Abstract

Because of its sheer diversity and thanks to the Internet, the content industry has been pressing digital communities and social networking sites into the service of new economic paradigms. This crucial development is operating on several different registers at once. It is changing the way goods and services are designed and developed, transforming user roles and practices and redefining business models, forms of marketing and the underlying organisations and markets. The culture industry seems to have become a laboratory for experimenting with new organisational, work and market patterns.
