The New Realities
In the past 150 years, America and the world has experienced a paradigm shift in the study of Public Administration, political realities, the government political processes, economy-ecology and the drastic transformation of our knowledge society. The New Realities book is Dr Drucker field guide to the large-scale paradoxes of our time. Dr Drucker hypothesis are a penetrating examination of the central issues, trends, and developments of the coming decades and the problems and opportunities they present to America and the world. He analyzes the new limits and functions of government, the transnational economy and ecology, the paradoxes of development, the post business society, information-based organizations, management as a social function, and the shifting base of knowledge. Most importantly, Dr Drucker analysis does not focus on what to do tomorrow. He focuses on what to do today in contemplation of tomorrows.
Dr Drucker is an omnivorous writer with a passionate interest in all fields of politics, business management, economics and political realities. He pushes to extremes some familiar ideas about the end of ideology, the burden of arms and the limits of government. He puzzles us by insisting that no one believes anymore in "salvation by society" (Drucker 1989, p 9) while finding great promise in a pluralism of single-purpose organizations. In the Divide, Drucker identifies two important periods that have drastically changed our dominant political creed. He mentions that the century has begun in 1776 with the Wealth of Nations' by Adam Smith and that ten years after 1873, the great liberal parties that had marched under the banners of progress' and enlightenment' all over the west were in retreat and disarray ( Drucker 1989, p 4). He said that the European Continent immediately split into Marxist socialist and anti-Semitic socialist that both were equally anti-capitalist, and hostile
