公共行政的继往开来之路——纪念伍德罗·威尔逊发表《行政学研究》120周年

Way of Public Administration from Yesterday to Tomorrow:——To Commemorate The Study of Administration being published by Woodrow Wilson for 120 years

120年前,威尔逊发表了《行政学研究》一文,它是公共行政学这门学科产生的标志性文献,也是近代政治发展的必然结果。在整个20世纪公共行政理论与实践的发展中,《行政学研究》一文提出的基本思想都是一个绕不开的主题,一切关于公共行政的理论思考和实践安排,都必须考虑政治与行政二分的框架。但是,威尔逊的行政学成就所代表的是工业社会的政治文明,当人类开始走向后工业社会的时候,关于公共行政的新理论及其实践也进入了一个新的纪元。

120 years ago,Woodrow Wilson published his paper The Study of Administration,which indicated the birth of public administration and was also the inevitable result of modern political development. During the theoretical and practical development of public adminstration in the 20th cemtury,the basic thinking in Wilson＇ s paper is a primary theme for public administration. All the theoretical thinking and practical arrangements about public administration should he considered under the framework of polltics/administration dichotomy. However, Wilson＇ s effort stands for the political civilization in industrial society. When we walk towards post - industrial society,a new theory and its practice about public administration also begins to embrace its new era.
