　　To Know the Real Drucker: Eight Articles Will Help You is a collection of eight articles by Peter Drucker: “The Unfashionable Kierkegaard” (1949) and its introduction (1992), “The New World-View” (1957), “From Analysis to Perception: The New World View” (1989), “Reflections of a Social Ecologist” (1992), “What Is a Functioning Society?” (1942), “From Rousseau to Hitler” (1942), “The Human Situation Today” (1957), and “Management as Social Function and Liberal Art” (1989).

　　Readers can find the source of each articles in the table of contents and editor’s note per article. Of the eight articles, only the last one is from Drucker’s works on management. The other seven are from his books on society, politics, and economics. Although the world has hailed him as the “Father of Modern Management,” he considered himself a “social ecologist.” This book will play an indispensable role in explaining the reason for that and in further understanding the foundation of faith and worldview which Drucker’s social ecology (and, of course, management) is built on.

作者簡介



Peter F. Drucker

　　Peter F. Drucker (1909-2005) was raised in a culturally rich family environment and was influenced by the Judeo-Christian tradition. He immigrated to the United States in 1937 and was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom on June 20, 2002.

　　A lifelong writer, Drucker is world-renowned for his more than 40 books. He studied finance in his early years and received a doctorate of law from the University of Frankfurt in 1931. He admired John M. Keynes (1883-1946) but was a follower of Joseph A. Schumpeter (1883-1955). Politically, he was highly critical of totalitarianism.

　　As a “social ecologist,” Drucker had keen insights and the courage to pursue innovation despite criticism. He established modern management discipline, advocating theoretical innovation and practical inquiry into management issues. Thus, he has been acclaimed as the “Father of Modern Management” and the “Guru of Gurus of Management.”

　　Drucker lived for nearly a century. He experienced two world wars, witnessed the processes of scientific, technological and ideological changes, observed the changes that took place from the industrial age to the intellectual (knowledge) and information ages, experienced the transformation from a capitalist society to a postmodern knowledge-based society, and offered prescient insights into world trends and human growth in the 21st century. We can say that his contributions will not be limited to the 20th century; his work will undoubtedly have an even more positive and far-reaching impact on developments and changes in the world’s future.
