Retrospectives: The Coining of “Privatization” and Germany's National Socialist Party
追溯了“私有化”一词在经济学中的历史，指出其常被误认为源于彼得·德鲁克1969年的著作，实际在1930至1950年代的德国经济政策中已出现并演变。
The concept of privatization attracted much attention in the late 1970s and early 1980s, as Margaret Thatcher's privatization policies were implemented in the United Kingdom. My goal here is not to comment on the merits of privatization as a policy, but rather to investigate the history of the term “privatization” in economics and to shed some light on the context in which the word was coined. Although the origin of the term is often attributed to a 1969 book by Peter Drucker, I will show that this attribution is incorrect, and that the terminology of privatization played an evolving role in German economic policy from the 1930s through the 1950s.
