In addition, this capacity for technocratic leadership has not resulted in a huge, inefficient bureaucracy since the size of government remains comparatively small. This paper explores the implications of Taiwan's recent democratization for the effectiveness of the country's public administration. On the one hand, democratization reduced the power of regime conservatives, thereby expanding the role of technocrats in the government; on the other burgeoning corruption and policy gridlock have clearly undercut effective policy-making. Thus, the most fundamental challenge for public administration in Taiwan appears to be re-establishing the bureaucratic integrity of technocratic government. - Reproduced Democracy - Taiwan Bureaucracy - Taiwan Bureaucracy International Journal of Public Administration 45684 45684 45684 0 0 0 0 IIPA IIPA 2018-07-19 Volume no: 23, Issue no: 10 AR46107 2018-07-19 2018-07-19 AR
