Throsby, D (2008). Modeling the cultural industries.
❖ Models of the cultural industries classification model.
❖ —> familiarize yourself with the different models (especially with the implications):
❖ Classification models
➢ DCMS,
■ focus on supply side, productive sector
➢ Symbolic text,
■ greater weight on aspects such as access and participation
➢ UIS model,
➢ Americans for the arts,
➢ WIPO model: copyright
■ Includes also … cultural industries (more than CCmodel)
■ focus on supply side, productive sector
➢ Concentric circles model
■ Implication: does only core cultural industries
■ also supply side
❖ 6 economic approaches
1. Industry organization theory
a. relevant primarily to those models oriented towards the commercial
production of cultural goods and services (used by governments - industrial
policy, firms - analyse attractiveness of industry)
2. Value chain analysis
a. used by firms to analyze performance in different stages of the production
cycle
3. Inter-industry analysis
a. used to evaluate the economic impact of cultural policy
4. Locational analysis

5. Contract theory and property rights

contracts with (value chain) partners

Svejenova, S., Planellas, M., & Vives, L. (2010). An individual business model in the making: A
chef’s quest for creative freedom.
❖ Individual level of analysis - triggers (quest for freedom is main trigger) & mechanisms -
value
➢ creation, appropriation, sharing mechanisms, slippage to third parties
➢ business model reveal 3 things
■ reveals the logic for creating and capturing value
1
, ■ reveals the organization’s approach to renewal
■ enhances understanding of organization’s operations
➢ four periods of Ferran Adria’s business model:
● 1. employee pre-stage.
● 2. owner-manager.
● 3. entrepreneur.
● 4. leader (in industry/world)
■ main mechanism: change mechanism (creative response → disruptive) and
value mechanism (everything to do with value: value capture and value
sharing and value slippage to third parties)
Poisson-de Haro, S., & Montpetit, D. (2012). Surviving in times of turmoil: Adaptation of the
Théâtre Les Deux Mondes business model.
❖ Business model = understanding the logic of the firms for renewal as well as creating and
capturing value
❖ Turmoil internal & external can develop suddenly or occur gradually
➢ overcome by adjusting business model
➢ external/market turmoil: funding, or low interest of external stakeholders
➢ internal/organizational turmoil: lack of available resources (HRM/ access to important
networks) dual leadership (financial and artistic departments, different objectives)
■ internal turmoil can lead to external turmoil
❖ Components of a business model
➢ customer value proposition,
➢ key resources (people),
➢ key processes (people),
➢ profit formula (WTP))
■ for cultural organizations both key resources and key processes are people
related → competitive advantage
❖ New business model is needed when changes are needed to elements of your existing model
WEEK 2: ORGANIZATIONAL DESIGN
Lampel, J., Lant, T., & Shamsie, J. (2000). Balancing act: Learning from organizing practices in
cultural industries.
❖ What organizational form is best suited to production in the CI?
❖ 5 tensions:
➢ artistic value vs entertainment value
■ has implications for how cultural production is organized (e.g. gov subsidies)
➢ product differentiation vs market innovation
■ category spanning (combining categories)
➢ demand analysis vs market consumption
■ push or pull?
➢ vertical integration vs flexible specialization
■ vertical integration often leads to control of market, at loss of flexibility
2
, ■ strategic alliance
➢ individual inspiration vs creative system
■ individual: HRM
■ collective/system: organization culture, collaboration
➢ → tensions are widespread, and balanced in many ways
Lampel, J., & Shamsie, J. (2003). Capabilities in motion: New organizational forms and the
reshaping of the Hollywood movie industry.
❖ How specific organizational forms come with specific benefits and drawbacks
❖ Industry structure changed (bureaucratic (studio era) → flexible (post-studio era))
❖ Resources: inputs for achieving superior performance
❖ Capabilities: routines and practices used to effectively manage resources
➢ Mobilizing capabilities = routines needed to identify and commit resources
■ Mobilizing capabilities contribute to the commercial success of movies (H1 =
confirmed)
■ empirical context: pre-production phase (resource bundle, problem, solution)
➢ Transforming capabilities = routines that drive and regulate the process of using
resources to obtain a finished product of a desirable quality
■ transforming capabilities contribute to the commercial success of movies (H2
= confirmed)
■ empercial context: production phase
❖ Certain organizational forms facilitate the use of certain specific capabilities
❖ ! Adoption of new organizational forms increased the relative contribution of mobilizing
capabilities for the success of movies (H3 = confirmed)
❖ ! Adoption of new organizational forms decreased the relative contribution of transforming
capabilities for the success of movies (H4 = confirmed)
Starkey, K., Barnatt, C. and Tempest, S. (2000). Beyond Networks and Hierarchies: Latent
Organizations in the U.K. Television Industry.
❖ organizational structure UK TV before 1990:
➢ television scriptwriting → production → publishing → broadcasting
❖ Changes in competitive landscape:
➢ 1990 broadcasting act (rule: at least 25% independent)
➢ new entry of publisher-broadcasters
➢ new entry of independent program makers
➢ → as result: vertical disintegration → change organizational form
❖ 3 main ways
➢ hierarchy (vertical integration)
■ assured level of quality, but high cost / low flexibility
■ all part of same organization
➢ market
■ cost reduction / flexible, but no quality assurance
➢ network (establishing relationships)
