The theory of the population ecology considered by the adaptation theories

The idea of radical change in organizations has been discussed mainly from two theoretical positions. One, driven by adaptationist theories, argues that change is possible because the environment is not something immutable and managers can be active agents of it. The other, supported by the populati...

One, driven by adaptationist theories, argues that change is possible because the environment is not something immutable and managers can be active agents of it. The other, supported by the population ecology theory argues that change is impossible because of structural inertia that faces all organizations. In this paper we review each of these approaches and discuss the implications of the theory of population ecology in the light of adaptationist theories. La idea de cambio radical en las organizaciones se ha discutido mayormente desde dos posturas teóricas. Una, impulsada por las teorías adaptacionistas, sostiene que el cambio es posible porque el ambiente no es algo inmodificable y los gerentes pueden ser agentes activos del mismo. La otra, soportada por la teoría de la ecología poblacional, sostiene que el cambio es imposible dada la inercia estructural a la que se enfrenta toda organización. En este trabajo se revisan cada una de estas aproximaciones y se discuten las implicancias de la teoría de la ecología poblacional a la luz de las teorías adaptacionistas.
