French term or phrase: être tenu
El contexto en el que me aparece esta construcción es el siguiente: "même les conduites réfractaires à ce code sont tenues en fonction d'une société qui s'y conforme". Lo que tengo como opción es algo así como que incluso estas conductas deben adaptarse/ adecuarse conforme a una sociedad que se adapta al código. No tengo del todo claro que sea éste el sentido, pero creo que van por ahí los tiros.

Explanation:
las conductas refractarias a este código tienen igualmente cabida en una sociedad en la medida en que esta las respeta.

Es una interpretación muy libre pero, por muchas vueltas que le doy, es la única que me parece lógica para una frase un tanto críptica. Tal vez el contexto lo pueda confirmar.
