Résumé
L’objectif de cet article est d’étudier la dynamique de Red Queen Effect (RQE) à travers un prisme particulier : la dimension concurrentielle spécifique, i.e. une caractéristique du produit sur laquelle se focalise la concurrence. Dans notre cas, il s’agit de la résolution en termes de megapixels des appareils photographiques numériques (1994-2011). Les résultats soulignent que la vitesse d’évolution de la tendance centrale de l’industrie, ainsi que la dispersion des positions concurrentielles par rapport à cette tendance centrale de l’industrie influencent la dynamique de RQE. Il apparaît qu’aller toujours plus vite, plus haut n’est paradoxalement pas bénéfique pour l’industrie.

Abstract
The aim of this article is to study the Red Queen Effect (RQE) dynamics through a particular prism: the specific competitive dimension, i.e. a product characteristic on which competition focuses. In our case, this refers to the megapixel resolution of digital cameras (1994–2011). The results highlight that the evolution speed of the industry's central trend, as well as the dispersion of competitive positions relative to this central industry trend, influence the dynamics of RQE. Always go faster, higher is paradoxically not beneficial for the industry.

Resumen
El objetivo de este artículo es estudiar la dinámica del Efecto Reina Roja (Red Queen Effect) a través una dimensión particular: la característica competitiva específica, es decir, una característica del producto en la que se centra la competencia. En nuestro caso, esta es la resolución de las cámaras digitales en megapíxel (1994-2011). Los resultados destacan que la velocidad de cambio en la tendencia central de la industria, así como la dispersión de las posiciones competitivas en relación con esta tendencia central de la industria, influyen en la dinámica del Efecto Reina Roja. Paradójicamente, parece que ir cada vez más rápido, más alto, no es siempre beneficioso para la industria.
