This article proposes an analysis of the strategies of an employers' association in response to the multiple transformations of its environment. It focuses on the capacity of actors, viewed here as institutional entrepreneurs, to transform their work-related institutions to better reflect their needs and interests. The study presents a case study of the Men's Clothing Manufacturers Association (MCMA), which provides insight into the associative behaviour of employers and, more particularly, illustrates the potential for actors to initiate (or to impede) the process of institutional change. In this particular case, MCMA members transform their associative model in order to deal with strong external pressures toward the decentralization of their industrial relations regime.
