Domination Metaphor: Educational Organizations as Instruments of Domination

Abstract

Organizations can be defined as tools enabling people to shape the world beyond their individual capabilities. Though organizations were initially founded for humanistic goals, it is unlikely to isolate them from power relationships in a given society. They may become useful instruments for power elites to dominate masses. Despite of their adverse effects, it is unlikely to give up particularly public organizations easily. At this point, describing negative aspects of organizations beside positive ones might create awareness about patalogies regarding organizational life. The use of metaphors in organization studies might make humanistic and environmental costs ignored by classical definitions visible beside transform highly complexified organizations into simple cognitive models. In this study theoretical discussions regarding the conceptions of domination and their results in educational administration were included. Moreover suggestions for palliating domination relationships were discussed and solutions offered for educational organizations were analyzed.
