Bureaucracy A system of government in which the business is carried on in bureaux or departments. The French bureau means not only the office of a public functionary, but also the whole staff of officers attached to the department. As a word of reproach, bureaucracy has nearly the same meaning as Dickens's word, red-tapeism (q.v.). Source: Brewer's Dictionary.

Specialty Definition: Bureaucracy

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

In sociological theories, bureaucracy is an organizational structure characterized by regularized procedure, division of responsibility, hierarchy, and impersonal relationships. The term can characterize either governmental or nongovernmental organizations.

A hypothetical bureaucracy would consist of many levels of management which require many signature approvals to make any decision. A second characteristic of many bureaucracies, especially government ones, is extreme difficulty in firing or laying off employees.

Max Weber has probably been the most influential user of the word in this Social Science sense. However, contrary to popular belief, "bureaucracy" was an English word before Weber; the Oxford English Dictionary cites usage in several different years between 1818 and 1860, prior to Weber's birth in 1864.

In modern usage, bureaucracy equates with inefficiency, laziness, and waste. It is oftentimes characterized in the popular imagination as existing solely for itself and only achieving results which end up in enlarging the size of the bureaucracy. It is thus generally used as a pejorative word. However, Weber originally described the concept in more positive terms, considering it to be a more rational form of organization than those that preceded it, which he characterized as charismatic and traditional.




Bureaucracy (computer game)

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

Bureaucracy is a text-based computer game released by Infocom in 1987, scripted by Douglas Adams.

In the game, the player is challenged to confront a long and complicated series of bureaucratic hurdles from a bank, arising from a change of address. The game includes a measure of simulated blood pressure which rises and falls according to the player's actions. Passing a certain level would result in death of the character and therefore losing the game.

The game was based on a real experience of Adams with a bank.
