Abstract:
This article argues that each and every federal agency serves one customer — the American public— and that agencies learn about that customer from the top down, through the political process and the laws and regulations emulating from that process. For this reason, the bureaucracy is an essential ingredient in the management of federal agencies. The National Performance Review's assertion that bureaucrats are unnecessary and get in the way of line managers and employees misses the mark. Bureaucrats are at the very core of government. Properly conceived, they are the public's customer representatives, working to make sure agencies are managed in accordance with the public interest. Reinventing the bureaucracy may be a good idea, but eliminating it or weakening could be a terrible idea, making agencies even less responsive to the public's needs. Some key suggestions for how the bureaucracy can be improved are offered including: constantly improve the bureaucracy's rules, flatten the organizational structure, build partnerships with others outside the bureaucracy, use expert systems, and reengineer rule-based processes. Professionals in the federal bureaucracy — including human resource management professionals — are currently being challenged to demonstrate why they are needed. This article provides a clear, logical argument supporting the importance of the bureaucracy.

Abstract:
This article reports research on bureaucrat behaviour. Where discretion exists, do primary associations such as religious, gender or racial identity guide behaviour or are these associations superseded by secondary learned professional or technocratic attachments? Using the theoretical lens of representative bureaucracy and Q methodology to investigate bureaucrat role perceptions, two distinct bureaucrat typologies are identified in Belfast. The evidence demonstrates that an elite-level bureaucrat may actively represent his or her own professional interests or, alternatively, may seek out and actively represent the interests of the political elite as a collective. The findings have implications for representative bureaucracy research as it is demonstrated that an elite-level bureaucrat may actively represent something other than a primary identity. This contribution also provides a useful insight into everyday life within a bureau of a successful power-sharing system of governance. Points for practitioners Politicians and bureaucrats from Northern Ireland are perpetually being invited to ‘teach the lessons’ of their power-sharing experience. This article highlights the importance of the elite-level bureaucrat in sustaining power-sharing regimes and provides an empirical basis for those seeking to draw on the Northern Ireland experience of conflict management and post-conflict governance.

Abstract:
Taiwan recently adopted a series of administrative reform laws designed to make the bureaucracy more transparent and allow public participation in regulatory policies. Because administrative reform limits the executive's power, it is clear why legislatures would favor strict administrative procedures. But it is less clear why presidents would support them. The passage of these laws begs the question why presidents support administrative procedural reforms designed to restrict their abilities to act freely. I argue that in Taiwan, President Lee Teng-hui's control of his party deteriorated as factional disputes within his own party increased over time. Lee ultimately concluded that the Kuomintang's political survival depended on major reforms. Consequently, the status quo-oriented bureaucracy—hitherto an important source of support for Lee and his key constituencies—became an impediment. Lee supported Taiwan's Administrative Procedure Act in order to reduce the bureaucracy's capacity to impede reform. More generally, I argue that administrative procedures designed to open up the bureaucracy to the public, including previously excluded groups, can serve politicians' goal of redirecting the bureaucracy. Archival data, secondary sources, and interviews with key presidential advisers, senior career bureaucrats, and politicians support my argument.

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is that the author tries to explain the concept of bureaucracy and government. In addition, the author also describes the differences between bureaucracy and government in terms of definition, theory, and task. This paper also aims to discuss the position of the bureaucracy in the trias politica system where there is a classification of power, namely the executive, legislative and judiciary. Then, this paper will lead to the administration and implementation of public services. The conclusion from this paper is that government and bureaucracy are two different things and bureaucracy can become its own entity outside of the executive, legislative and judiciary and those in charge of providing public services are the bureaucrats, not the government, although actually bureaucrats and government have different roles in responsibility to deliver public service.

Abstract:
<p>Majority studies on electoral dynamics in Indonesia are reinforce patronage as a pattern of relationships between candidates, winning team, and voters. One of winning team element which have little attention from scholars is bureaucrat. Although, normatively, bureaucrats are required to neutral in all type of general election, but in fact bureaucrats is very involved deeply in general elections. Based on empirical research in Sintang District and Ketapang District, West Kalimantan, Indonesia, we found that bureaucrats have a significant role as a winning team in <em>pilkada</em> (direct election for local leader). Patronage is a keyword to explain political relation between bureaucrats and candidate in <em>pilkada</em>. This situation was triggered by the fact that there are many candidates who have social background as civil servant and, consequently, have direct access to bureaucracy. Bureaucrats have high motivation to participate in <em>pilkada</em> as a broker due to protecting their vested interest. In our cases, the vested interest of bureaucrat is career stability which is promising additional personal revenue and social status. Consequently, staffing (circulation of position) within bureaucracy does not followed by auction mechanism (merit system), but following nepotism mechanism (spoil system). The winner of <em>pilkada</em> is socially pressured to accommodate all bureaucrats who has become their winning team. Finally, we discuss our finding and propose future agenda research to understanding this phenomenon. </p>

Abstract:
In order to have a more nuanced conversation about the role and size of government, we should attend to our diverse passional experiences of bureaucracy. We overlook our affective experience of bureaucracy in our usual focus on bureaucracy’s impersonality and passionless rule and on cost-benefit analyses of individual regulations. To the extent that we consider bureaucracy’s passional effects, bureaucracy is cast as something that saps passion – understood as energy and vigor – from our lives. Attention to the variety of passional experiences of bureaucracy reveals neglected and salutary aspects of life within and under the shadow of bureaucracy. For example, particular bureaucratic affects are arguably a pedagogy in the realities, compromises and burdens of politics, and may enhance – in desirable ways – our solidarity with those who share our polity.

Abstract:
For the past few years, a contentious issue of accountability among government bureaucrats has remained as topical as it is relevant to governance. This research brings in an exposition of the role of ethics in ensuring accountability among government bureaucrats as animated by transparency. To realize this, a normative research method is used through secondary data. Relevant literature like books and journals are sufficiently used to paint out the existing and prevailing circumstances in government bureaucracy. Accountability is one of the tools in controlling ethical conduct of government bureaucrats. There are instances of purported power abuse made in public service, showing government bureaucracy’s disregard for ethical standards. The question of whether the state, as sovereign, should be held accountable to anyone or viewed as a moral and responsible agent has been well debated in political science literature going all the way back to Hobbes’ time. Accountability is achievable by presenting multiple and dynamic accountability obligations to administrators and low-level bureaucrats. An institutional approach questions principal-agent assumptions regarding what accountability entails, how it is demanded, rendered, evaluated, and assigned, as well as how accountable institutions function and change.

Abstract:
Bureaucratic pathology is a disease in the state bureaucracy arising from the behavior of bureaucrats and conditions that open up opportunities for it, both concerning political, economic, social cultural and technological. The role of the bureaucracy as the implementor of political policy, or in other words the bureaucracy as the organizer of the government, the pathology of the bureaucracy can be interpreted as a problem or problem that occurs in the administration of government due to the performance of the bureaucracy is not able to meet public needs properly. Bureaucratic pathology can be manifested in the inability of political officials in the executive (elected because of political mandate) or the issue of the performance of elected public officials, namely officials in the bureaucracy who occupy positions due to political processes, or because the performance of administrative leaders, namely career bureaucrats who occupy career positions in the bureaucracy. Or the bureaucracy itself as an institution, or government agents or bureaucrats who are unable to provide public satisfaction. With the advent of bureaucratic diseases in the organizational structure it becomes a major influence in service. In addition there is still discrimination in services or differences in services, including services for making E-KTP provided by officers to the public. The level of staff response or skills that are still low, needs to be further improved and is important in influencing the level of community satisfaction where the service is fair and without differentiating the status and position supported by the availability of adequate facilities and infrastructure in administrative services.

Abstract:
We propose a short epistemological and methodological reflection on the challenges of doing ethnographical research on public services (‘bureaucracies’) from the inside. We start from the recognition of the double face of bureaucracy, as a form of domination and oppression as well as of protection and liberation, and all the ambivalences this dialectic entails. We argue that, in classical Malinowskian fashion, the anthropology of bureaucracy should take bureaucrat as the ‘natives’, and acknowledge their agency. This means adopting basic anthropological postures: the natives (i.e. the bureaucrats) must have good reasons for their seemingly ‘absurd’ (or arbitrary) practices, once you understand the context in which they act. Based on intensive fieldwork and understanding ethnography as a form of grounded-theory production, to explore this ‘rationality in context’ of bureaucrats should be a major research objective. As in day-to-day intra-organisational practice and in internal interactions between bureaucrats, state bureaucracies function largely as any other modern organisation, the anthropology of bureaucracy does not differ that much from the anthropology of organisations. One of the major achievements of the latter has been to focus on the dialectics of formal organisation and real practices, official regulations and informal norms in organisations ‘at work’. This focus on informal practices, pragmatic rules and practical norms provides the main justification for the utilisation of ethnographic methods. In fact, it is difficult to see how informal norms and practices could be studied otherwise, as ethnography is the only methodology to deal with the informal and the unexpected.

Abstract:
Bureaucracy and the law are two forces that must go hand in hand. Bureaucratic disregard the law when it goes limp bureaucratic system with no force because the bureaucratic system will not run when the law was abandoned. Bureaucracy in indonesia often look weak in a system. First rampant corruption in the bureaucracy is the main cause of dishonesty (actor) bureaucrats in understanding the nature of law. Breaking effects and misusing the mandate. Second, in our country as chaotic bureaucracy therein lies stagnation and the legal system in force when the bureaucracy that must be realized in accordance with the function and social role as a servant of the state. The third in the current law is enforced through a reformulation bureaucracy or bureaucratic reforms therein lies the role of bureaucracy is no longer comply with the law. Presence of bureaucracy in addition to be honest and transparent with the legal ethics bureaucracy is needed. Ethics is important in the bureaucracy. First, the existing problems in the bureaucracy becoming increasingly complex. Second, the success of development that has improved the dynamics and pace of change in the bureaucratic environment. Bureaucracy perform adjustment which requires discretionary power great.

Abstract:
The management of conflict has long been of concern to social scientists, urban planners and community-minded citizens. While differing mechanisms of managing ethno-national or ethno-linguistic tensions exist, few studies advance our understanding of how conflicts are actually managed – in other words, the study of ethnic peace. In this study I draw on the experiences of two differing examples of ethnic peace: Belfast and Brussels in the expectation that other contested cities such as Kirkuk, Jerusalem, Nicosia or Mostar, who may one day consider power-sharing as a form of governance, may learn from what have been categorised as sites of successful power-sharing. While there are few studies of ethnic peace, fewer studies again seek to understand the role of the elite level bureaucrat in sustaining this peace. This dissertation fills this gap in the literature, investigating the politician-bureaucrat relationship within the contested urban environment of two differing mechanisms of consociationalism. The dissertation ascertains the extent of discretion available to the bureaucratic elite and further, through determining core beliefs of interviewees, establishes how this discretion is employed. Methodologically, the dissertation draws on a multi-method approach, consisting of semi-structured interviews and a method well established in Psychology but relative new to Political Science: Q Methodology. The empirical findings show that the bureaucratic elite influence the conflict management process. While bureaucrats are found to share a number of core governance beliefs, a number of categories of association can also be identified. These categories are not based on a primary identity, but a secondary learned identity. The findings therefore also propose that a professional or societal attachment can supersede a primary attachment within the public administration of a contested society. In a number of instances, bureaucrats are found to actively represent these secondary learned attachments over their primary identities. The findings define bureaucratic activity in two instances of ethnic peace, as well as contributing to the literature on active representation. Moreover, it is suggested that the role of the bureaucrat in the conflict management process requires much more scholarly attention if political level power-sharing agreements are to be sustainable.

Abstract:
The overall aim of this thesis is to explore the theoretical and empirical relationship between entrepreneurship and bureaucracy, and to examine the cause and effect of entrepreneurship. From this overall aim, four specific questions are investigated. The first question deals with the issue of combining agency and structural explanations of entrepreneurship. Traditional one-sided explanations are discussed, and a two-sided explanatory model of the entrepreneurial choice is presented and tested empirically. In relation to this, the issue of causal heterogeneity is discussed and tested. The empirical results indicate that several country-level variables, including bureaucracy, influence the entrepreneurial choice at the individual level, and that the effect of some individual variables on the entrepreneurial choice varies according to structural context. The following two questions deal with the relationship between the entrepreneur and bureaucracy. The first one describes how the entrepreneurial process is regulated by bureaucracy, and how entrepreneurs solve regulatory problems. From this study it is clear that the smaller entrepreneurs comply with 'good' law in order to enjoy the benefits of formality, and avoid 'bad' law to reduce the costs of formality. The larger entrepreneurs comply with all regulations and are very frustrated over delays and inefficiency. The smaller entrepreneurs have a more understanding attitude towards bureaucratic inefficiency and have less trouble solving regulative problems. Both groups have strategies for solving regulative problems; most frequently this involves social ties with public officials and bribes. The second of the relationship questions investigates the extent to which entrepreneurs are obstructed by or dissatisfied with the regulatory authorities, and whether this varies over different types of entrepreneurs. Based on Schumpeter’s distinction between entrepreneurs and other, less creative, business owners, the overall results indicate that creative companies have larger problems with regulatory authorities. The conclusion is that bureaucracy tends to be a problem with regard to new ideas, but not for new companies. The fourth question raised deals with the economic effects of entrepreneurship and bureaucracy. Can entrepreneurship and bureaucracy explain variation in economic development across countries? The results indicate that entrepreneurship combined with bureaucracy offer high explanatory values and that a large part of the variance in economic development, left unexplained by agency behaviour, is explained by the regulation of that behaviour. In terms of policy implications the results indicate that the removal of bureaucratic barriers to entrepreneurs could have large potential payoffs in terms of economic growth.

Abstract:
La Inquisición en la península Ibérica siempre ha sido un tema muy atractivo para los historiadores sobre el que han ido surgiendo diversas teorías que han convertido la temática en un topos, con aproximaciones que van desde las más antiguas y extremas a las más modernas y liberales. Aun así, los inicios de la Inquisición catalana ha sido un tema abandonado durante mucho tiempo, por lo tanto con el objetivo de revelar esta descuidada área científica, esta tesis se basa en el manuscrito de Pere Miquel Carbonell Liber descriptionis reconsiliationisque, purgationis et condemmnationis hereticorum ALIAS de Gestis Hereticorum, que se encuentra en el Archivo de la Corona de Aragón y que contiene documentos acerca de la Inquisición catalana desde 1487 hasta 1507, un periodo de tiempo definido y recordado por sus conflictos contra el cripto judaísmo. La presente disertación aplica técnicas modernas y análisis históricos, además de comentarios del manuscrito de Pere Miquel Carbonell Liber descriptionis que fue el primer punto en la investigación. Se tomó en consideración información relevante como la estructura burocrática o el personal del tribunal, su reputación y privilegios y también el registro de sus funciones. Asimismo, se ponen de relieve los procedimientos legales en los procesos inquisitoriales y se analizan las penas y castigos en dicho periodo. Por otra parte, se ha adoptado un método de búsqueda y metodología moderna que pone énfasis en aspectos del periodo en cuestión, sin descuidar las regulaciones legales y financieras. La contribución tal vez más destacada de esta investigación es la lectura del texto de Pere Miquel Carbonell y el análisis de la creación de la estructura burocrática inquisitorial y su articulación dentro de la iglesia, sin descuidar los roles específicos en los procesos legislativos de la Inquisición en el tiempo de la primera fase de la actividad del tribunal: el periodo tal vez más intenso de la persecución anti-conversa en Cataluña.
The Inquisition in Iberian domain has always been an attractive theme for many historians while many theories have emerged on the topic, from old and extreme to modern and liberal. However, the Catalan Inquisition was the theme abandoned for many years, hence with an aim to reveal this neglected scientific field this thesis is based on Pere Miquel Carbonell’s manuscript Liber descriptionis reconsiliationisque, purgationis et condemmnationis hereticorum ALIAS de Gestis Hereticorum which is kept in The General Archive of The Crown of Aragon and contain records about the Catalan Inquisition from 1487 until 1507, a period declared as a time remembered by serious fight against Crypto-Judaism. The dissertation applyed modern techniques of historical analyses, textual criticism and commentary of the Pere Miquel Carbonell’s manuscript Liber descriptionis which was the starting point of this investigation. It took into consideration such information as the bureaucratic structure of the personel of the Tribunal, their reputations and privilages which these positions provided, and also the register of functions. Additionally, it focused on the legal procedures in practice such as inquisitorial processes, trials as well as its outcomes and penalties within described period. Additionally, it adopted a modern research metodology focusing on aspects of the period in question such as the legal and financial regulations. The contribution of this research is creating of the precise inquisitorial bureaucratic structure within its church officials and thier specific roles in legal inquistorial processes in a time rememberd as the first phase of the tribunal`s activity: the period of intense anti-converso persecution in Catalonia.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to explore the utility of Hall's (1961) conceptualization of Max Weber's (1946) theory of bureaucracy as an analytical tool in Turkey. The population was 1946 teachers in 91 public schools that employ five or more teachers. The instruments were distributed to 725 teachers in 68 schools in Karabuk province. Useable returns were 486. A pilot sample (one third of the useable returns) was generated to test the instruments by utilizing a series of item analyses. Remaining cases were used to answer the research questions in a separate sample. Items to measure bureaucracy derived from different versions of Hall's (1961) Organizational Inventory which operationalized six bureaucratic dimensions: hierarchy of authority, division of labor, rules and regulations, procedural specifications, impersonality, and technical competence. Item-analyses were done in the pilot sample. The surviving items were subjected to a factor analysis using the research sample. Generally, the factor structure of items obtained in the pilot sample was replicated in the research sample. Items measuring sense of power were also isolated from the literature and tested in the pilot sample. The surviving items were also subjected to a factor analysis in the research sample. The six moderately correlated bureaucratic dimensions clustered around two negatively related second-order factors. The first factor (control) was composed of hierarchy of authority, rules and regulations, procedural specifications, and formality in relations. The second factor (expertise) was composed of division of labor and technical competence. Based on control and expertise scores, teachers were classified into four typologies: Weberian, Collegial, Chaotic, and Authoritarian. Teachers in collegial cluster were the highest in sense of power and teachers in authoritarian cluster were the lowest in sense of power. Sense of power was inversely related to bureaucratization and positively related to expertise above and beyond the other relevant variables. It is concluded that there is support for the applicability of the western predisposition of bureaucracy to Turkish schools because of similar findings reported by western researchers. Max Weber's ideal theory of bureaucracy as it was operationalizaed by Hall is a useful analytical tool to examine the organizational structure of Turkish schools.

Abstract:
This research focuses on a twofold issue: 1) the challenges that globalization creates to institutions, having to deal with a new international order; 2) the challenges that state governance creates for global actors, having to adapt themselves to the national and sub-national peculiarities. The globalization–bureaucracy interplay is a politically contested phenomenon, in which different models of interactions among states, firms, and citizens appear and transform both nationally and internationally. At the national level, the impact of globalization on quality of governance is examined empirically across countries. The analysis with fixed effects models is based on a panel dataset, covering over 100 countries in the period 1992–2010. The study examines an effect from both economic and social globalization factors on different governance features, including governance effectiveness, regulatory quality, control of corruption, accountability, political stability, and rule of law. The findings show that various governance features seem to diverge in how easily they respond to the new state of affairs that follows with more globalization. Moreover, in line with the theoretical predictions, globalization affects institutions differently depending on the country‘s level of development. The results thus suggest that the previous findings on positive effects of international economic flows on institutional quality are likely driven by changes in rich countries. The impact of institutional policies on globalization factors is analyzed at the sub-national level, using a panel dataset of 82 Russian regions in the period 1995–2010. The study takes an advantage of examining different types of fiscal incentives, introduced in some regions of Russia in 2003, treating them as a natural experiment and estimating the causal effect of tax concessions on foreign direct investment inflows with two causal inference techniques: difference in differences estimation and synthetic controls method. The findings confirm that tax concessions for investment lead to more foreign direct investment inflows. However, selective tax concessions for the government sanctioned important investment projects do not have the expected effect, or the effect is sporadic and weak at best. As governments seek to increase the national and sub-national attractiveness for foreign investors, these findings have important implications for the design of institutional policies.

The increasing complexity of the State, in particular the use of new information and communication technologies have led to the emergence of new types of bureaucracies such as system-level bureaucracy and screen-level bureaucracy. The first is composed of specialists who develop information systems for public policies, while the screen-level bureaucracy is formed by middle-level and street bureaucrats who act at the end of the provision of public services, depending on the systems to perform the work. The present work has as object of study the analysis of the relations between these bureaucracies in the implementation of public policies, with emphasis on the coordination problem. In this inter bureaucratic relationship, communities of practice, discretion and expertise are important analytical elements, since they allow the creation of strategies of action by the actors and the coordination of the policy. The theoretical references on bureaucracy and implementation of public policies were constructed not only in classical texts such as Weber (2007), Wildavsky and Pressman (1973) and Lipsky (1980) that discuss the relations between bureaucracies in the implementation of But also in the more recent work by Guy Peters (1998) and Bovens and Zouridis (2002) on the coordination and role of ICTs in policies. From a methodological point of view, it is a case study comparing two public policies that differ in the way in which the relations between system level bureaucracy and screen level bureaucracy occur. In the two informal, mutually dependent, close and complementary, informal learning networks allow actors to create and use action strategies that contribute to coordination. The distinction between policies has occurred in the identification of greater coordination problems in education policy. The explanation first relates to the substantive difference of the tax collection policy, which is of greater importance to the government and has a greater maturity in the development of information systems than other secretariats, which provides greater expertise and more collaborative relationships. Empirical evidences related to the organizational characteristics of the secretariats contribute to explain this distinction, such as: the greater turnover of the bureaucrats of the Department of Education (SEED); The separate physical location of the education systems and teams development team, different from what occurs at the Treasury Department (SEFA).
A complexidade crescente do Estado, em particular, o uso de novas tecnologias de informação e comunicação, tem gerado novos tipos de burocracias, como a system-level bureaucracy (SYB) e a screen-level bureaucracy (SCB). A primeira é composta por especialistas que desenvolvem sistemas de informação para as políticas públicas, enquanto a SCB é formada por burocratas de nível médio e de rua que atuam na ponta da prestação de serviços públicos, dependendo dos sistemas para realizar seu trabalho. O presente trabalho tem como objeto de estudo a análise das relações entre essas burocracias na implementação de políticas públicas, com destaque para a problemática da coordenação. As referências teóricas sobre burocracia e implementação de políticas públicas foram construídas a partir de Weber (2007), Wildavsky e Pressman (1973) e Lipsky (1980) que discutem as relações entre burocracias na implementação de políticas públicas, e também se baseou em trabalhos mais recentes de Guy Peters (1998) e Bovens e Zouridis (2002), concernentes à coordenação e ao papel das TICs nas políticas. Do ponto de vista metodológico, trata-se de um de caso comparado entre duas políticas públicas: a de arrecadação fiscal e de educação básica do estado do Paraná enfocando os processos de desenvolvimento de sistemas de informação com a participação da CELEPAR (Companhia de Tecnologia da Informação e Comunicação do estado do Paraná). Tais políticas se diferenciam pela forma como ocorrem as relações entre a SYB e a SCB. Nas duas políticas, redes informais de aprendizado, mutuamente dependentes, próximas e complementares, permitem aos atores a criação e utilização de estratégias de ação que contribuem com a coordenação. A distinção entre as políticas se deu na identificação de maiores problemas de coordenação na política de educação. A explicação relaciona-se primeiro, à diferença substantiva da política de arrecadação fiscal, que possui maior importância para o governo e maturidade maior no desenvolvimento de sistemas de informação se comparado a outras secretarias, que confere maior expertise e relações mais colaborativas. Características organizacionais das secretarias contribuem para explicar as implicações dessa distinção, como a rotatividade maior dos burocratas da Secretaria de Educação (SEED); a localização física separada da equipe de desenvolvimento de sistemas e equipes da educação, diferente do que ocorre na Secretaria da Fazenda (SEFA).

Abstract:
One of the controversial issues among researchers in the field of public finance is estimating the determinants of public expenditures. It’s argued that public expenditure is determined by economic as well as demographic, social and political variables. One of the important element of political variables is bureaucracy. If bureaucracy, as one of the main actors of political decision making process, works in quality, effectiveness and efficiency would occur in publicly provided goods and services. In parallel with the good quality of bureaucracy, the size of state would become smaller. The purpose of this study is to test empirically between efficient bureaucracy and public expenditure, using dynamic panel data analysis of 6 Eurasian Economic Community countries from 1998 to 2011. This study finds evidence that existence of bureaucratic quality reduces the public expenditures.
