La investigación sobre la administración en Colombia (1965-2015): balance y perspectivas

After five and a half decades since the creation of the Colombian management faculties (FCA) and after a late and slow development of research, profound changes have been registered in the past 15 years that produced its institutionalization and beginnings and, others, such as the internationalization of the publication of its results and the creation of a seriesof doctorates are in their infancy. Supported by the Colombian studiesand the international discussion on the subject, this article proposes achronological framework of its path and an interpretation of the forces andfactors that defined its rhythm and orientation in each period to provideelements that can contribute to a better comprehension of the past andpresent of research, and to show the challenges and alternatives thatthe FCA face to consolidate the processes that are currently underway.
