The Decline of the Hierarchy and the Problem of the of Modern Organization

Abstract

This article will evaluate the question of authority. Firstly, it will review the concept of organisation and the concept of the hierarchy of power, and secondly it will take from the well - known theories of organisations, the concept of authority as an active principal of equilibrium and order. This question begins from the problems which arise from changing the process, and the expectation of adapting the productive processes to a global level. Putting in place these models of management transference, their rapid absorption and resistance can have the effect of destabilising economies and the way in which they develop.
