INTRODUCTION
The administration is the social science that aims at the study of
the organizations and the technique in charge of the planning,
organization, direction and control of the resources (human,
financial, material, technological, knowledge, etc.) In order to
obtain efficiency or maximum possible benefit; this benefit can be
social, economic or strategic, depending on the aims pursued by
that organization.
Other definitions of Administration (according to several authors)
are as follows:
The Administration is a social science composed of principles,
techniques, and practices, whose application to human groups allows
establishing rational systems of cooperative effort, through which
common purposes can be achieved that individually is not feasible
to achieve.
• The Administration is to achieve a predetermined objective,
through the effort of others.
• The Administration is a social science that pursues the
satisfaction of institutional objectives through a structure and
through coordinated human effort.
• The Administration is the process whose objective is the
effective and efficient coordination of the resources of a social
group to achieve its objectives with maximum productivity.
• Andreas Kaplan specifically describes European management as
"intercultural and social management, based on an interdisciplinary
approach" .1
