Abstract

This article discusses the development of organizational theory, from modern organizational theory to basic organizational theory, and its application. The research background is driven by the evolution of organizations from the post-Industrial Revolution to the digital era, where modernism emphasized efficiency and environmental adaptation, while critical approaches exposed power, capitalist ideology, and worker alienation. The research objective is to analyze the development of organizational theory from the modern to the critical paradigm and its application to contemporary organizational management in Indonesia. The method used is a literature review with a qualitative approach to collect and analyze relevant sources. The research results found that the integration of both theories produces a "critical modernism" framework for sustainable management. Practical implications include recommendations for public and private organizations in balancing productivity with social justice. This research contributes to the development of contextual organizational theory in Indonesia. This theory emphasizes similarity, adaptability, and technological integration, as well as the conceptual emphasis of contingency theory, learning organizations, and transformational leadership. Through this contextual study, it can be concluded that organizational theory has undergone adaptive development in accordance with the surrounding social, economic, and technological dynamics. This article is expected to serve as a reference for academics and practitioners in understanding modern organizational dynamics and critical organizational theory.

Abstract

This article discusses development theory in sociology, encompassing paradigms, modernization, dependency, and world systems. The background to this research is based on a long-standing debate in development studies, demonstrating that socioeconomic change cannot be understood through a single approach. Modernization theory emphasizes internal factors as the cause of underdevelopment and the solution to development, dependency theory critiques the external domination of developed countries over developing nations, while world systems theory views development as part of the interconnected dynamics of the global capitalist system. The purpose of this research is to analyze the basic concepts of each development theory in sociology and understand their implications for social change in society. The method used is a literature study with a qualitative approach through the review of various relevant sources. The results of the study indicate that development paradigms significantly influence perspectives on the causes, processes, and direction of social change. Modernization, dependency, and world systems theories each provide different but complementary explanations for understanding the dynamics of development in developing countries. Through this conceptual review, it can be concluded that development cannot be separated from internal and external relations and must be understood within a broader global framework. This article is expected to serve as a conceptual reference for academics and practitioners in understanding development theory in sociology more comprehensively.
