This paper theoretically reflects on the direction of Organizational Studies (OS) in Latin America and presents an investigation agenda to meet the needs and particularities of our region.In this regard, the need to avoid importation of conceptual models and solve the historical tension in the Administration field has emerged in the Western world.The paradigmatic break that arose in OS during the 1960s had its regional correlate in the last years.This led to a real investigation program that shows promising signs of vitality in Latin-American OS and a strong process of institutionalization of their own paradigm.
