GONZALES-MIRANDA, Diego René; OCAMPO-SALAZAR, Carmen Alejandra  y  GENTILIN, Mariano. Organizational Studies in Latin America. A Literature Review (2000-2014). Innovar [online]. 2018, vol.28, n.67, pp.89-109. ISSN 0121-5051.  https://doi.org/10.15446/innovar.v28n67.68615.

This paper analyzes the current state of organizational studies based on a review of the top 10 Latin American journals published during the last 15 years (2000-2014). The reviewed articles were published in journals included in Web of Science or Scopus databases. A total of 3,210 articles were classified according to the theoretical perspectives defined for this review study. Research included a study of networks for the analysis of co-authors and the institutional affiliation of authors. The results allow to assert there is a tendency in the study of organizations from a functional-positivist approach, while other options for addressing organizational phenomena from a more comprehensive and critical perspective begin to emerge. This work was limited to the defined selection, leaving aside other important and representative journals in the field of organizational studies. Discussion section presents a general picture of the reality of the organizational field in Latin American specialized-literature, which provides possibilities to identify, locate and build specific projects in this field for future research.
