| Summary, etc. |
"The article discusses that bureaucrats are, by definition, public servants responsible for the non-political functions of public administration. This distracts attention from their power potential. In some countries, undoubtedly, bureaucrats are indeed powerless and, in any country, most low-status appointed officials have little or no power. Nevertheless, high ranking bureaucrats (military and civil) often exercise great influence within a state and sometimes constitute the dominant ruling group. In any comparative study of political systems we need to take the political roles played by bureaucrats into account" |
