SOCIOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVES REGARDING MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES IN PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION

Summary/Abstract: The actors of the public administration, be it central or local, are part of the social life, but also of the individual one. From a sociological point of view, the analysis of public administration is the subject of a broader field of study called sociology of organizations. This branch of sociology, which has become increasingly popular in recent decades, deals with the analysis of public and private organizations, in all their forms of leadership, functioning and manifestation in social life. Moreover, the globalized society has become a world of organizations, an organizational universe, in which social tasks are performed by and by organizations, whether public or private (Otovescu, 2009). Trade organizations, educational organizations, cultural, military, medical, etc. are relevant from this perspective. Society appears in the form of a system of organizational structures, in which private and public organizations are distinguished, the latter having the role of ensuring the management of social life in the direction of obtaining what the ancients called "common good". In this article, which is intended as a theoretical, synthetic, we will reviews the most important sociological and psychosociological theories that consider the definition, structuring and management of organizations related to the public system.
