Abstract: Research on the dimensions of proximity draws on the measurement and the characteristics of these dimensions of proximity though the institutional proximity lacks clarity. This paper tries to fill this gap. Indeed, we propose to analyze the institutional proximity by the observation of shared representations. To meet this target, we realize a thematic content analysis. To provide a comprehensive view, we interviewed 11 aeronautical actors on their perception of this proximity. Through the analysis of their verbatims, the research highlighted the components and the effects of institutional proximity on their inter-organizational relations. The study reveals a positive and a negative shared perception of the sector which is a new finding despite an unexpected effect of lock in came under light.
