Abstract
The lack of consensus on the definition of concepts such as “culture” and “development” as well as the dominance of modernization theory explain the difficulties faced in identifying a clear theoretical framework for understanding the influence of culture both on economic development trajectories and organizational practices. In this article, I will examine the main controversies that have shaped the literature within which the relationship between culture, economic development and management has been debated. Then, I will highlight the need to go beyond the tradition/modernity dichotomy associated with modernization theory to offer new ways of thinking about the influence of culture in building and implementing effective organizational practices in countries from the Global South.
