AUTOPOIESIS AND ORGANIZED ANARCHY IN UNIVERSITIES


Abstract:

The objective of this article is to describe and analyze how the construct of" Organizational Culture" has been positioned in university communities, as well as the dominant beliefs that allow approximating a typology of cultures present in Ecuadorian universities. In this study, the search was based on an approach to the theoretical developments of: Cohen, March and Olsen's model of the organization as anarchy (1972, 1976), García's Complex Systems (TSC)(1981, 2000, 2006), Luhmann's Social Systems Theory (TSS)(1990) and Stacey's contributions (1995) on the Theory of organizations as complex systems; to select and describe the elements that constitute them and position them within the framework of organizations whose mission is the production of higher education service. The thought developed about organizations is abundant and multifaceted, so it was not easy to choose a theoretical position that could be considered complete; however, relevant theorizations were selected and integrated to interpret the university actors' understanding of organizational culture.
