Abstract:

 


Academic area, which is the place of scientific
production, and academics, which are the subjects of academic production, is
more and more involved in the process of alienation from day to day. Capitalist
relations of production continue to dominate in the academic field as well as
in every field. Accordingly, scientific production, which has started to become
marketed, is the most influential factor in the alienation process of
academicians. In addition, the specialization in the academic field also
damages the ability of academics to assess phenomena. In the subjects
discussed, academicians, who made their evaluations according to only their
disciplines, in which they were stuck, came to a state of being disinterested
about social problems when they came together with marketed academic
production. In this study, academic alienation and as the processes of this,
the marketization of intellectual labor, the power relations in the working
environment of academics and the division of labor are emphasized. Academic
promotion and appointment, which is a reality of academic life, has also been
briefly examined. The current literature about the issue was examined. Then
Turkey's fundamental problems in business life were identified. Finally, how
much space these problems found in the publications of faculty members who
continue to work in the business disciplines was detected. For this purpose,
Management and Organization Congress, National Business Congress and
Organizational Behavior Congress, which has an important place in the
discipline of business and management, were included in the study. The findings
showed that academics were apathetic about social problems and they did not
give any place to social problems in their researches.
