Should Management be viewed as a Science?

Management Theory has evolved quickly over the past 100 years. A basic question that is still asked is management a science. Below are links to two articles, one from 1978, forty years ago, and another from 2017. After forty years, the question remains.

After reading the articles, you may wish to do some research of your own. Reflect on the question.  What has changed in the last forty years, and is the question still valid? Make sure you support your statements.
