DEL CASTILLO ALEMAN, Gloria. Una propuesta analítica para el estudio del cambio en las instituciones de educación superior. Perfiles educativos [online]. 2006, vol.28, n.111, pp.37-70. ISSN 0185-2698.

The purpose of this article is to offer an analythical proposal which contributes to explain comprehensively the institucional changes within higher education institutions with different legal structures as a result of the articulation between internal and external organizational factors. The intersectorial public-private perspective is seen as a part of the analysis of change within higher education starting from what the author calls bureaucratic isomorphism. The interest towards an analytical complementarity responds to the fact that if both perspectives, the intersectorial and the organizational as well, are adopted, the change within universities could be explained in a more comprehensive way, and this would make possible to show how universities are changing at their own rythm and according to their organizational peculiarities, giving birth to specific types of university change.

Palavras-chave : Institutional change; Bureaucratic isomorphism; Internal change; External change; Heterogeneity within change.
