      abstract = {The aim of this essay is to identify organizational and  managerial paradigms within the management literature, and  then adapt and apply them to an academic department, using,  as the case example, a department of agricultural  economics. Despite the paucity of literature dealing  specifically with academic organization,  we believe that  there is much to be learned from
the literature dealing  with managerial organization that could be adapted to the  academic setting in which an agricultural economics  department operates. Furthermore, it is our belief that an  understanding of  the managerial organization literature  will help to better understand the behavior of faculty and  non-faculty employees within academic units.},
