QUINTERO FELIX, Jorge E.; CORRALES BARGUENO, Víctor Antonio; MARTINEZ HUERTA, Ramón  y  ARECHIGA SANCHEZ, Gloria. El cambio conducido en la universidad: la percepción de los académicos. Rev. educ. sup [online]. 2010, vol.39, n.153, pp.7-22. ISSN 0185-2760.

To understand the academics perception about the changes that their institution are facing, we present the Universidad Autónoma de Sinaloa case to study how the academic sector processes the momentum of modernization in their study centers; therefore it is important to understand the apparent inclination of the scholars to be part of the modernization process and the effect that it brings in terms of convergence or loss of cohesion and institutional identity. To support this interpretation we present the different conceptions that nowadays are in debate about the theories of social change and organizations.
