Assistant Prof. Dr. Osman EROGLU

Abstract
This article seeks to explicate organizational fields which have been undergoing change especially during in Justice and Development Party’s (Adalet ve Kalkinma Partisi, AKP) single-party government since 2002, in relation to a dominating institutional logic in Dicle University. Textual analysis and interviews conducted as parts of the research bring out the existence of prevailing institutional logic which is likely to be described as “community logic” tightening with AKP governance.

In this research, the point is to understand community logic manipulating the university administration and to bring out how institutional change comes about with this dominating institutional logic in the context of Dicle University.
