Drucker on Innovation and Entrepreneurship

The management guru Peter Drucker in his book on Innovation and Entrepreneurship has some interesting things to say about building an entrepreneurial society that are relevant to the thinking of this Network. To quote Drucker:

What we need is an entrepreneurial society in which entrepreneurship are normal, steady, and continuous. Just as management has become a specific organ of contemporary institutions, and the integrating organ of our society of organisations, so innovation and entrepreneurship have to become an integral life-sustaining activity in our organizations, our economy, our society.

Peter Drucker, Innovation and Entrepreneurship (p236)

This seems to me like a definition of a "learning society". Are the two things much the same? If so, what are the implications for building "entrepreneurial learning cities" ? What practical steps can be taken to advance this vision?
