Abstract: This paper studies the potential outcomes of IFRS standards implementing by French firms through the performative language based theories. Previous papers tended to focus on IFRS implementing problems rather than their organizational impacts. According to our representativist framework we consider here the organization as the sum of discourses practices stabilized at a given time. Standards are examples of "assertive", "comminatory" and "directive" written statements which are part of organizational discursive practices ; such texts feed the professional (or collective) genders. Importing standards issued by an organization where the Anglo-Saxon practices are overrepresented may modify in depth the genders being the cement of companies from Continental Europe and particularly French firms. We discuss more in details the potential effects of the IAS 19 and 39.
