    MODELUL BIROCRATICN ADMINISTRAIA PUBLIC

    BUREAUCRATIC MODELIN THE PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION

    Drd.ing. Ioan Simion DANUniversitatea Tehnic din Cluj-Napoca

    Abstract: This paper refers to the stages of the bureaucracy development as a form of government andpublic administration system. From Max Weber's phrase, "bureaucracy is the ideal type of institutionalorganization towards which the modern society aspires" today, the concept has received pejorativedirections which concludes that the public administration should have as main characteristic or purpose,

    creating new jobs and not the public interest served. Assuming that efficiency is the ultimate goal of anyinstitution and effectiveness as the ratio of the achieved objective and the result to achieve, we willmanage to influence productivity in the public sector.

    Keywords: birocracy, Weber Max, public administration

    1 INTRODUCEREBirocraia este un mecanism gigantic

    acionat de oameni mruni., Balzac

    Birocraia este un cerc din care nu poate

    scpa nimeni. Ierarhia sa este bazat pecunoatere. Cei din vrf consider c cei de sub ei

    cunosc amnuntele, iar cei de jos i crediteaz pe

    cei din vrf cu cunoaterea ansamblului, i aa toi

    sunt pclii reciproc., (Karl Marx, 1973)

    Termenul de birocratie este pentru prima datadefinit n anul 1745, de ctre Vincent de Gournay

    prin adaugarea termenului grecesc kratos (aconduce) la cuvntul francez bureau (birou).

    Administraia public urmeaz un modelbirocratic ncepnd de la mijlocul secolului al

    1 INTRODUCTION"Bureaucracy is a giant mechanism operated

    by small people.", Balzac

    "Bureaucracy is a circle can not escape

    anyone. Hierarchy is based on knowledge. The topbelieves that those below them know the details,

    and those below them credited on the top with all

    knowledge, and so all are mutually deceived."(Karl Marx, 1973)

    The term bureaucracy is first defined in 1745by Vincent de Gournay by adding the Greek kratos(to lead) to the French word bureau (office).

    Government bureaucracy is a model from themid eighteenth century in Prussia (Jacoby, 1973).

    XVIII-lea n Prusia (Jacoby, 1973).

    n secolul al XIX-lea acest model a fostpreluat i modernizat de Woodrow Wilson nStatele Unite ale Americii, i de marele MaxWeber, sociolog german.

    nc din anul 1930, Laski J.H. spunea cabirocraia este o form a guvernrii n care,efectiv, domin funcionarii publici, n timp ce F.Lane afirma c birocraia nseamn un mod deadministrare complex, la scar lrgit, un anumitcomportament organizaional. (J.H.Laski, 1936).

    Mathiot considera c birocraia are avantajeapreciabile, deoarece funcionarii publici, recrutai

    n funcie de talentul lor, menin continuitateastatului i a serviciilor publice. (Sawicki F. andMathiot (P.), 1999).

    Max Weber (1947) era de prere cbirocraia reprezint tipul ideal de organizare

    instituional spre care tinde societatea modern: ea este caracterizat de totalitatea

    aptitudinilor angajailor structurai ntr-oordine pre- stabilit i o diviziune amuncii pe birouri;

    dezvolt tiina administraiei prin facili-tarea progresului sistemelor economice;

    birocraia reprezint modul cel mai eficientde organizare al colectivitii. Eficienabirocraiei fiind rezultatul modului decolaborare dintre om i main.

    Deci, birocraia ca baz a funcionriiinstituiilor publice va impune ordine n activitateaadministrativ.

    Weber M., afirm faptul c tipul pur birocraticde organizare administrativ era capabil s ating

    cel mai nalt grad de eficacitate i c este n acest

    sens cel mai raional mijloc cunoscut de a exercita

    puterea asupra fiinelor umane. Astfel Weber, formuleaz propria teorie abirocraiei care, dup prerea sa are urmtoarelevalori:

    serviciu public oferit de profesionitieducai,

    recrutarea i numirea funcionarilor se vaface numai pe baza meritelor dovedite,

    va exista neutralitate politic, care va opriadministraia s intervin n politic iinvers,

    se va asigura stabilitate pe posturi ifuncii de conducere.

    In the nineteenth century this model has been

    taken over and modernized by Woodrow Wilson inthe United States, and the great Max Weber,German sociologist.

    Since 1930, Laski J.H. said that bureaucracyis "a form of governance in which, effectively,dominate public officials", while F. Lane says that"bureaucracy is a way of complex management, atlarge scale, an organizational behavior".(J.H. Laski, 1936)

    Mathiot considered "bureaucracy hasconsiderable advantages because the civil servants,recruited based on their talent, maintain continuity

    of the state and public services". (Sawicki F. andMathiot P., 1999).

    Max Weber believed that "bureaucracy is theideal type of institutional organization towardswhich the modern society aspires"( Weber, M.(1947):

    it is characterized by all employees skillsin a pre-established structure, in an orderand a division of labor for each office;

    develops administration science byfacilitating progress for economicsystems;

    Bureaucracy is the most efficient way oforganizing the community. Bureaucracyefficiency is the result of the way ofcollaboration between man and machine.

    So basic functioning bureaucracy of the publicinstitutions will require order in the administrativeactivity.

    M. Weber, states that "purely bureaucratictype of administrative organization was able toachieve the highest degree of efficiency and thatthis is the most rational known way of exercising

    power over human beings.Thus Weber, formulates his own theory ofbureaucracy which, in his opinion has thefollowing values:

    public service provided by trainedprofessionals,

    recruitment and appointed officials will beproved only on the merits,

    there is political neutrality, which stopsthe administration to intervene in the

    political and vice versa, Will ensure stability and job positions.

    2 STILURI DE CONDUCEREDorind s explice modalitile prin care

    angajaii respect i se supun autoritii, Weberdescrie trei tipuri de stiluri de conducere.( Weber,M. 1958).

    Figura 1. Stiluri de conducere conform Weber M

    2.1 Organizaia bazat pe stilul carismaticAutoritatea se realizeaz prin calitile

    liderului, pe charisma sa. Ea este format din lideri discipoli. Criteriul de alegere n posturile deconducere a discipolilor, se va face n funcie deloialitatea, devotarea i supunerea fa de lider.

    Administrarea organizaiei bazat pe lider, nuse desfaoar pe baza de norme de conduit saureguli, ea se bazeaz n principal doar pe dorineleliderului. El conduce dup bunul plac, dupa

    propriile valori i pofte.Datorit acestui fapt, aceste societi nu sunt

    puternice sau de durat, de obicei dispar odat cudispariia liderului. Dac nu va aprea un alt lider,aceast societate se va putea transforma fie ntr-oorganizaie tradiional, dac va exista un succesor

    pe baz de rudenie, fie ntr-o societate birocratic.

    2.2 Organizaia bazat pe stilul clasic organizaia patriarhal

    Aceast organizaie este organizaiatradiional, care este acceptat datorit faptului comul nu este dispus la schimbare i i este mult maiuor s accepte ceva ce dintotdeauna a fost aa.Aici conteaz mai mult datinile, motenirile, i nun ultimul rnd, rudeniile i rangul.

    n funcie de gradele de rudenie, se vor selectaoamenii pentru posturile de conducere, iar relaiileexistente ntr-o astfel de organizaie sunt mai multde tipul stpn supus.

    2 LEADERSHIP STYLESSeeking to explain the ways in which

    employees respect and obey authority, Weberdescribes three types of leadership styles.(Weber, M., 1958)

    Figure 1. Leadership styles according to M. Weber.

    2.1 Organization based on charismatic styleAuthority is made by the leader qualities on

    his charisma. It consists of leader and followers.Criteria of choice in the management of thedisciples will be based on loyalty, devotion andobedience to the leader.

    Management organization based leadership is

    not accomplished by rules of conduct or rules; it ismainly based only on the leader wishes. He runs atwill, by own values and desires.

    Because of this, these companies are notstrong or prolonged and they usually disappearwith the disappearance of the leader. If thereappears another leader, this company will be ableto transform either into a traditional organization,if there is a successor based on kinship or abureaucratic society.

    2.2 Organization based on the classic style -patriarchal organization

    This organization is traditional organization,which is supported by the fact that man is notwilling to change and it is much easier to acceptsomething that has always been so. This focusesmore on traditions, heritage, and, last but not least,relatives and rank.

    According with the degrees of relationship,this will select people for leadership positions, andthe relationships in such organizations are morelike "master - subject".

    2.3 Organizaia bazat pe stilul raional-legal organizaia birocratic.

    Max Weber afirma faptul c o organizaiebirocratic este raional, legal i eficient,trsturi principale pentru societile moderne.

    Organizarea birocratic este cea mai eficientform de conducere i de organizare social pentruurmatoarele considerente

    fiecare funcionar are o autoritate clardefinit,

    funciile de conducere fac parte dintr-oierarhie stabilit, se tie clar cine la cine ieste subordonat,

    exist un sistem de norme, proceduri,reguli, dup care funcioneaz societatea,

    n toate domeniile de activitate se va lucracu specialiti ,

    procesul de selecie pentru funciile deconducere se va baza pe competen imerite.

    Max Weber formuleaz ase principii pentrusistemele birocratice moderne (Gerth i Mills, 1968Gerth, H.H. and Wright Mills, 1947):

    1. Principiul stabilirii zonelor oficiale dejurisdicie, n funcie de legi, reguli i regulamenteadministrative;

    Autoritatea va deriva din cadrul legislativ,format din legi i regulamente scrise.

    2. Principiul ierarhiei organizaionaleExist o ierarhie strict, unde conteaz funcia,

    managerul va avea autoritate asupra organizaiei.Managerul va delega anumite sarcini specifice,unui nivel inferior lui, spre competent rezolvare.

    3. Conducerea modern ntr-un departamentse bazeaz pe documente scrise ;

    Ele se pstreaz i se arhiveaz ntr-un anumitformat, existnd n acest sens un regulament deordine interioar n care sunt stabilite regulile decomunicare i de arhivare. Prin pstrareadocumentelor scrise i posibilitatea consultrii lorde cte ori este necesar, organizaia va putea ficonsecvent n aplicarea regulilor sale, avndntotdeauna la ndemn opiunea folosirii lor ncazul unui precedent.

    4. Compartimentele de management suntspecializate;

    Administrarea, managementul unei organizaii

    necesit o pregtire de specialitate, managerul

    2.3 Organization based on rational-legalstyle - bureaucratic organization.

    Max Weber said that a bureaucraticorganization is rational, legal and efficient, themain features of the modern societies.

    Bureaucratic organization is the most efficientform of government and social organization for thefollowing reasons:

    each public clerk has a clearly definedauthority,

    management functions are part of anestablished hierarchy, it is known clearlywho to whom is subordinated,

    there is a system of rules, procedures,rules, after which the company isoperating,

    in all fields of activity will work withspecialists,

    The selection process for managementpositions will be based on competenceand merit.

    Max Weber formulates six principles formodern bureaucratic systems (Gerth and Mills,

    1968, Gerth, H.H. and Wright Mills, 1947):1. Principle of establishing official areas of

    jurisdiction, according to laws, rules andadministrative regulations;

    Authority will derive from the implementedlegislation, consisting in written laws andregulations.

    2. Organizational hierarchy principleThere is a strict hierarchy, where the function

    counts, the manager will have authority over theorganization. Manager will delegate specific tasksto a lower level, to be solved competently.

    3. Modern management in a department isbased on written documents;

    They are kept and archived in a certainformat; there is in this sense a regulation of

    procedure which sets the rules of communicationand archiving. By keeping the possibility of writtendocuments and their consultation as necessary, theorganization will be consistent in applying its ruleswith the option to use them always at hand.

    4. Management departments are specialized;Administration and management of an

    organization requires specialized training, manager

    avnd o pregtire specific i de durat. Nu poate fi

    manager dect cel care demonstreaz acestecaliti. Nu mai exista liderul charismatic sauconducerea patriarhal

    5. Diviziunea muncii este bine stabilit ncadrul organizaiei, numit i activitate pentrubirocraie

    Exist activiti principale i activitisecundare, stabilite n funcie de importan idomeniul de activitate.

    6. Conducerea departamentelor se asigurpe baza unor reguli generale, avnd la baz meritei performane profesionale.

    Gata cu nepotismele sau dorinele proprii,posturile de conducere se ocup doar de ceicompeteni.

    naintea teoriei birocraiei a lui Weber, Wilsonsubliniaz faptul c doar cei care fac politic trebuies fie responsabili pentru politicile elaborate,funcionarii devenind responsabili pentru punerea n

    practic a lor.Administraia se afl dincolo de sfera politicii.

    Problemele administrative nu sunt probleme politice,chiar dac politicul stabilete sarcini pentruadministraie, nu trebuie lsat s-i manipulezeacesteia din urm funcionarii. (Wilson, W., 1887)

    Wilson i Weber sunt de acord cu faptul cadministraia poate fi scoas n afara sferei politicedin punct de vedere instrumental i tehnic.

    Exist convingerea c administraia publicpoate fi o entitate distinct care trebuie s funcionezen afara politicului.

    Modelul lui Weber spune c n administraietrebuie s se dezvolte un sistem unic bazat pe reguliclare, astfel nct organizaia i regulile ei s devinmai importante dect orice individ. Individul urmnd

    s se supun regulilor, normelor i procedurilor dinorganizaie.Ocuparea funciilor publice este o vocaie i se

    dobndete doar dup o calificare corespunztoare iun examen de promovare. Astzi n administraie seaplic acest model, existnd la iniierea n cariera

    public sintagma funcionar debutant. Acesta vaparcurge un stagiu sub ndrumarea unui funcionarpublic definitiv, pn la urmarea definitiv pe post.De obicei, stagiul dureaz un an de zile.

    n momentul ocuprii unei funcii publice,funcionarul va fi fidel organizaiei n schimbul

    garantrii siguranei locului de munc.

    training with a specific and lasting period. There

    may not be a manager only the one thatdemonstrates these qualities. There's nocharismatic leader or leadership patriarchalleadership.

    5. Division of labor is well established withinthe organization, called the "bureaucratic activity"

    There are main activities and secondaryactivities, determined according to the importanceand the scope of the activity.

    6. Department management is ensured on thebasis of general rules, based on merit and

    professional performance.

    No more nepotisms or own desires, leadershippositions are occupied only by the competent ones.

    Before Weber's bureaucracy theory, Wilsonpoints out those politicians must be responsible fordeveloped policies; staff becomes responsible forimplementing them.

    "The administration is beyond the politicalsphere. Administrative problems are not political,although politics sets tasks for administration, itmust not be allowed to manipulate the publicclerks. "( Wilson, W, 1887)

    Wilson and Weber agree that theadministration "can be taken outside the politicalsphere in terms of tools and techniques".

    There is the belief that government can be adistinct entity which must operate outside of

    politics.Weber's model says that the administration

    should develop a single system based on clear rulesso that the organization and its rules to becomemore important than any individual. The individualwill be subject to rules, regulations and proceduresof the organization.

    Public office occupation is a vocation and isacquired only after an appropriate qualification anda promotion exam. Today the administration isapplying this model, with the initiation in thecareer of a public official with the word junior. Itwill go through an internship under the guidance ofa permanent official, till the final result until he hasthe permanent position in the institution. Usuallythe internship lasts one year.

    When occupying a public office, the officialwill be faithful to the organization in exchange forthe job security guarantee.

    Salariul funcionarului public nu este acordat

    n funcie de volumul de munc desfurat ci nfuncie de statut, de funcie i durata serviciului. Eivor avansa astfel, de la nivelul cel mai de jos sprecele mai mari niveluri ale ierarhiei organizaionale.Deci ntregul proces de recrutare i avansare se vaface dup meritele funcionarului i nu prin altemodaliti.

    Weber era sigur c acest principiu despecializare pe funcie va implica creterea

    productivitii muncii.Procesul decizional va permite realizarea unui

    nivel maxim de eficien din punct de vedere

    tehnic.El considera faptul c: Precizia, viteza,

    fermitatea, gradul nalt de informare, continuitatea,discreia, unitatea, subordonarea strict, reducereaconflictelor interne i costurile cu personalulreprezint caracteristici ale nivelului optim derealizat ntr-o organizaie".

    Organizaia birocratic astfel definit, eraprivit ca fiind modalitatea ideal de organizaiepentru administraia public.

    Prin comparaie cu politica, care este ntr-ocontinu schimbare, organizarea birocratic,respectnd principiile lui Weber, va puteareprezenta continuitatea att de necesar ntr-o ar.

    La sfritul secolului al XIX-lea WoodrowWilson, unul dintre iniiatorii abordrii birocraticen SUA, susinea c ar putea exista o separaieclar ntre politicieni i conducerea instituiilor

    publice din administraie, respectiv ntre politic imisiunea instituiilor publice de implementare aacesteia.( Wilson, J. Q, 1989)

    Figura 2. Politic VS Administraie

    Salary of the civil servant is not paid for the

    volume of work performed but on the status,function and length of service. They will advanceso, from the lowest to the highest levels of theorganizational hierarchy. So the whole process ofrecruitment and promotion will be made after thecivil merits and not by other means.

    Weber was certain that this principle willinvolve specialization according to labor

    productivity growth.Decision-making will enable the maximum

    level of technical efficiency.

    He believes that "precision, speed, firmness,high degree of information, continuity, discretion,unity, strict subordination, reduction of internalconflicts and personnel costs are features of theoptimal level to achieve in an organization".

    Bureaucratic organization as defined abovewas regarded as the ideal way for governmentorganizations.

    Compared to the policy that is in constantchange, bureaucratic organization, respecting the

    principles of Weber, can be continuity so necessaryin a country.

    In the late nineteenth century WoodrowWilson, one of the initiators of the bureaucraticU.S. approach, argued that "there may be a clearseparation between politicians and leading publicinstitutions of government and between publicinstitutions and political mission for itsimplementation."( Wilson, J. Q., 1989)

    Wilson W., afirma faptul c problemele

    administrative nu sunt probleme politice. Cu toatec prin politici se stabilete modalitatea dedesfurare a activitilor din administraia public,nu trebuie depait aceast limit, existnd

    pericolul de manipulare a funcionarilor publici.Ca exemplu la aceast sintagm a lui Wilson

    planul de aciune al unui guvern nu esteelaborat de instituiile publice din administraie,dar aplicarea lui se realizeaz n administraie.

    Wilson aprecia ca i cauz principal nsistemul administrativ din SUA a apariieicorupiei, implicarea politicului n sistemul

    administrativ.Stillman Richard, n lucrarea The

    American Bureaucracy, 1991, distincia ntrepolitic i administraie reprezint o condiiefundamental pentru declanarea procesuluireformelor ntr-un sistem administrativ.Separarea sistemului administrativ de politic

    poate conduce la dezvoltarea domeniuluiadministraiei, la accentuarea profesionalismuluifuncionarilor publici din administraie i lacreterea gradului de libertate al acestora naplicarea politicilor.( Stillman R., 1991)

    Cea mai mare ntrebare a lui Wilson, era cumamericanii ar putea ncorpora administraia publicn Constituie.

    Recunoate dou sfere de influen:1. politicul = alegerea guvernului este

    facut de alegtori2. administraia = nu trebuie s existe

    amestec politic.Dac studiind administraia public am putea

    determina ce putere ar trebui conferit managerilordin administraie, fr a mpiedica autoritile

    statului s-i exercite atribuiile i s-i asumeresponsabilitile ce-i revin, atunci acest studiu arfi de nepreuit.

    Opinia public trebuie fac parte din acestesisteme i s devin un critic constructiv nconducerea administraiei publice.

    Cu toate c Wilson W., afirm faptul cadministraia este n cea mai mare parte separat de

    politic, recunoate existena relaiei dintreadministraie i politic dar sublineaz faptul cadministraia are modul propriu de rezolvare a

    problemelor sale, nefiind un instrument pasiv, ci

    activ.

    W. Wilson said that administrative issues are

    not political issues. Although through policies it isset how to conduct the public administrationactivities, this limit should not be exceeded,because there is a danger of manipulation of the

    public servants.As an example of this phrase of Wilson "... a

    government action plan is not developed by publicadministration institutions, but its application ismade in administration".

    Wilson appreciates as the main cause in theadministrative U.S. system is the incidence of

    corruption, political involvement in theadministrative system.Richard Stillman, in the paper The American

    Bureaucracy, in 1991, said "the distinction betweenpolitics and administration is a prerequisite totrigger a process of reforms in the administrativesystem". "Separation of political administrativesystem may lead to development of theadministration, the increased professionalism ofcivil servants in the administration and increasetheir freedom in applying the policies.(Stillman R,1991)

    Most of Wilson's question was howAmericans could incorporate public administrationin the Constitution.

    Recognizes two spheres of influence:1. Politics = government election is made

    by the voters2. Administration = there should be no

    political interference.If studying public administration we could

    determine what power should be conferred to theadministrative managers, without preventing theState authorities to exercise powers and assumeresponsibilities incumbent, then this study wouldbe invaluable.

    Public opinion must be part of these systemsand become a constructive critic in the publicadministration leadership.

    Although W. Wilson, states that publicadministration is largely separated by politics,recognizes the relationship between theadministration and political but highlights the factthat the administration has its own way of solving

    Richard J. Stillman l consider pe Wilson

    W., fondatorul disciplinei administraiei publiceamericane (American Public Administration (thediscipline))( Richard Stillman).

    Fcnd o comparaie cu un buctar, auto-guvernarea nu are nevoie s-si foloseasc minilegoale pentru a face tot, ci pentru a-i face treaba

    poate folosi manui, oale, ustensile de buctarie.Nu ar trebui s se bazeze totul pe un vot, ci artrebui s conteze mai mult prerea celor aflai laconducerea guvernului.

    Datoria administraiei publice este de a spuneoamenilor ce fel de administrare s-i doreasc i

    s cear, cum s o obin i ce tip de candidat saleag.n concluzia lui Wilson W., studiile

    guvernamentale ar trebui s fie comparative,asociative, aa cum s-ar asocia ascuirea unui cuit

    pentru alte scopuri, nu cu dorina de ucidere.Guvernarea n Marea Britanie, se

    caracterizeaz printr-o limitare evident a puterilor.n Marea Britanie, n sistemele Westminster,

    se observ cel mai bine modalitile de influen apoliticului n sfera conducerii aparatuluiadministrativ.

    Exist o interdependen clar ntre atribuii iresponsabiliti. Orice structur administrativ aredou atribuii: s informeze politicul asuprastadiului implementriii politicilor i s igestioneze resursele proprii astfel nct politicileexistente s poat fi implementate. Adic fiecarefuncionar public este responsabil de politicileimplementate i se subordoneaz direct, conformierarhiei, efului direct i cetenilor.

    Exist o separare clar ntre politic iadministraie. Se presupune din start faptul cadministraia nu trebuie s aib nici o orientare

    politic, ea trebuie s-i defoare activitateaconform atribuiilor sale, nu ca urmare ainterveniei politicii.

    Aceste sisteme Westminster introduc termenulde responsabilitate formal a ministerelor, adicfiecare ministru va rspunde personal pentruactivitile sale, fiind retribuit pentru aceasta daravnd i un sistem de stimulente care le asigurstabilitatea locului de munc, indiferent deschimbrile politice.

    his problem, not a passive instrument, but active.

    Richard J. Stillman is considered by W.Wilson, founder of American public administrationdiscipline (American Public Administration (thediscipline)).( Richard Stillman )

    By comparison with a cook, self-governmentdoes not need to use bare hands to do, but to do the

    job can use gloves, pots and kitchen utensils. Itshould not rely entirely on one vote, but it shouldmatter more the opinion of the ones in charge ofthe government.

    The governments duty is to tell people what

    kind of management they should wish and ask howto get it and what type of candidate to choose.In W. Wilson conclusion, government studies

    should be comparative, associative, as wouldassociate sharpening a knife for other purposes, notwith desire to kill.

    Governance in the UK is characterized by anobvious limitation of powers.

    In Britain, the Westminster systems, is bestseen how political influence within theadministrative management.

    There is a clear interdependence between thetasks and responsibilities. Any administrativestructure has two functions: to inform the politicsof state policy implementation process and managetheir own resources so that existing policies can beimplemented. That every civil servant isresponsible for policies and reports directlyimplemented, according to the hierarchy, to hissuperiors and to the citizens.

    There is a clear separation between politicsand administration. It is assumed from the start thatthe authorities should have no political orientation;it must operate according with its duties, notbecause of political intervention.

    These Westminster systems introduce the termformal responsibility of ministries that eachminister will be responsible for its activities, beingrewarded for it but having a system of incentivesthat ensures job security, irrespective of politicalchanges.

    Aceasta cretere are loc de la baz, urmndtraseul unui arbore i este generat de ceea ce A.Mathiot denumea paranoia administraiilor.

    Se impune concluzia de nedorit, i anume cadministraia public ar avea ca i caracteristic

    principal sau ca menire, crearea de noi locuri demunc i nu de a satisface interesul public.

    Astfel se va ajunge la o administraiesupradimensionat fals, bazat pe interese proprii.

    Toate aceste instituii create de instituii s-au dovedit a fi o cheltuial imens pentru bugetulde stat deoarece nu s-a manifestat n obinerea derealizri financiare semnificative, care s acoperei s justifice eforturile materiale efectuate cunfiinarea i dotarea lor.

    birocratic, care permite clasei politicedominante s atrag noi angajai;

    ideologice, posibiliti de ascensiune pescar politic.

    O problem real o constituie faptul ca acestsistem administrativ este reticent la schimbare, nraport cu alte tipuri de sisteme.

    3 CONCLUSIONThe public administration tends to increase

    with the appearance of new services tasks, thegrowth of normal claims of the population, the factthat each head of department will increase thenumber of their subordinates to become moreimportant and necessary.

    This growth occurs at the base, following thepath of a tree and which is generated by A. Mathiottermed "paranoid public administration."

    It imposes the undesirable conclusion,namely that government would like the mainfeature or purpose, creating new jobs and not tosatisfy the public interest.

    This will produce an oversized fakeadministration, based on own interests.

    All these "institutions established byinstitutions" proved to be a huge expense to thestate budget as it was expressed in obtainingsignificant financial achievements, coveringmaterials and efforts made to justify theestablishment and equipping them.

    Expanding public bureaucracies has beenmade of various reasons which include:

    economic, growth requires thecorresponding increase in the number of

    posts for civil servants; political, due to bureaucratic expansion,

    which allows the dominant political classto attract new employees;

    Ideological, political scale growingopportunities.

    A real problem is the fact that the

    administrative system is reluctant to change, inrelation to other systems.

    Conservative attitude of the administration isprovided, so public officials who see in a change athreat to their rights and the monopoly positionbenefited by the administrative system in thesociety, leading invariably to maintaining theacquired positions.

    Public services just spend money and donttgenerates income. Even taxes, fines, or other"income" earned, are actually the result governed

    anumite legi i norme care sunt obligatorii pentru

    ceteni.S lum de exemplu, cazul impozitului pecldiri. Probabil ar fi foarte puini aceia care dinresponsabilitate social ar considera oportun idin proprie iniiativ ar alege sa plteasc o sumntr-un cuantum chiar i ales de cetean, organelorstatului, doar pentru c e contient c aceste taxe iimpozite se folosesc pentru asigurarea serviciilor

    pentru ceteni.Adevrul este c orice tax i impozit trebuie

    s reflecte i un beneficiu pentru cel impozitat sauo obligaie, n cazul n care este o afacere.

    Nemulumirea cetenilor pornete din faptulreal c nu ntotdeauna plata taxelor i impozitelorla zi aduce dup sine mcar o ameliorare a strii defapt. De exemplu taxa de drumuri, contribuie

    pentru pensii, etc. Indiferent ct impozit i taxe sepltesc pentru drumuri, acestea sunt tot ntr-o stareproast.

    n anul 2009 au fost identificate 558 deimpozite i taxe instituite printr-un numr de 185de acte normative. De altfel, comisarul LeonardOrban spune: "n evaluarea Comisiei Europeneexist 113 taxe n Romania, iar CE considera ceste cel mai mare numr de taxe existent nEuropa. Una dintre solicitrile n ceea ce privetestrategia Lisabona a fost reducerea semnificativ aacestor taxe, pentru c sunt unele taxe care constaumai mult n colectarea lor dect n ceea ce seaduce".( lorylex.wordpress.com, 2009)

    De ce s nu recunoatem c puterea segestioneaz cel mai eficient prin intermediulbirocraiei iar oamenii se ateapt la proceduri ireguli clare i specifice atunci cnd comunicinstituional.

    Se poate afirma c serviciile publice suntansambluri de persoane i lucruri create n vedereasatisfacerii unei nevoi publice de ctre colectivitate

    public, supuse autoritii i controlului acesteia.La ora actual un sinonim al birocraiei este

    administraia public.Legea lui Parkinson, formulat de analistul

    englez C. Northcote Parkinson (1957), Volumul(cantitatea) muncii crete astfel nct s ocupeintegral timpul alocat pentru realizarea obiectivuluifixat".( C. N. Parkinson, 1955)

    Aceasta ierarhizare birocratic i promovarea

    se asociaz cu creterea personalului administrativ

    by certain laws and rules that are compulsory for

    citizens.Take the case of tax on buildings. Perhaps itwould be very few whom, from "socialresponsibility" consider desirable and from theirown initiative to pay a sum in an amount evenchosen by the citizens, to the state bodies, justbecause he is aware that the taxes are used to

    provide services for citizens.The truth is that any duty and tax must reflect

    a benefit for the one taxed or an obligation, if it is abusiness.

    Dissatisfaction comes from the real fact that

    not always paying the taxes on time brings anyimprovement of the situation. For example, roadtax, pension contribution, etc. No matter how manytaxes are paid for roads, they are all in a poorcondition.

    In 2009 there were identified 558 taxesimposed by a number of 185 acts. In fact,Commissioner Leonard Orban said: "In theEuropean Commission assessment there are 113taxes in Romania and the EC considers that thehighest number of taxes existing in Europe. One ofthe requests in the Lisbon strategy was asignificant reduction of these fees because there aresome tax collection comprised more in collectingthem more than what they bring. "(lorylex.wordpress.com/2009/03/13/ce-cere-romaniei-sa-reduca-semnificativ-numarul-de-taxe-si-impozite/)

    Why not recognize that power is mosteffectively managed through bureaucracy and

    people expect clear and specific procedures andrules when institutionally communicating.

    We can say that public services are sets of

    people and things created to satisfy a public bypublic authority, subject to its authority andcontrol.

    Nowadays bureaucracy is synonymous withpublic administration.

    Parkinson's Law, formulated by the Englishanalyst C. Northcote Parkinson (1957) said"volume (quantity) of the work increases so that ittakes the full time allocated for the fixedobjective."( C. N. Parkinson, 1955)

    The bureaucratic hierarchy and promotion isassociated with increasing administrative staff

    Un calcul simplu ne arata ca birocraia prinpersonalul nou angajat, se dubleaz la fiecare 15ani.

    O alt lege a lui Parkinson: incompetentul vaascunde propria incompeten prin mrirea

    The Peter Principle, 1969, aplicat n oricestructur ierarhic, spune c fiecare individ va fi

    promovat pn cnd va atinge nivelul lui personalde incompeten.Acest nivel al incompetenei se va atinge din

    cauza faptului c la promovare nu se ine seama decerinele postului n concordan cu calitilesalariatului propus la promovare. Fiecare post deconducere presupune un anumit nivel decompeten, ntr-o anumit specializare.

    is the number of units actually administered; y isthe total initial staff.

    Applying Parkinson's Law, at different times,it appears that government staff with an annualincrease rate between 5.17% and 6.56%, regardlessof workload changes.

    A simple calculation shows that bureaucracyby the new staff doubles every 15 years.

    Another Parkinson's Law: incompetent to hidehis own incompetence by increasing skills.

    A public official is not able to solve a task,

    being incompetent, will ask other officials to solvethis task.

    A meaningless regulation will be applied bythe official, thinking that surely he will find asuperior to punish him if the rule applies even if itsapplication will destroy anything, existing the

    possibly of hiding the mistake behind the lawenforcement.

    The Peter Principle, 1969, applied to anyhierarchical structure, says that each individual willbe promoted until he reaches his own level of

    incompetence.This level of incompetence is reached becausethe promotion does not take into account the jobrequirements in accordance with the employeeskills proposed to promote. Each management

    position requires a certain level of competence, tosome degree. The fact that a head of departmentwho led well about. 10 people with significantresults, not automatically has the skills needed tocoordinate a direction consisting of approximately50 people.

    Principiul lui Dilbert se refer la o teoriesatiric din anii 1990. Conform acesteia,companiile au tendina s promoveze cei mai slabiangajai n poziii de management, pentru a preveniafectarea experienei consumatorilor de ctrerespectivii angajai.

    Termenul a fost introdus de ctre Scott

    Adams, un absolvent de la Berkeley.Adams explic astfel: Cei mai ineficienilucrtori sunt transferai, n mod sistematic, ntr-ofuncie unde pot face cele mai mici pagube: nmanagement. E ca i cum am fi ntors regulilenaturii cu susul n jos, Identificm i promovmn mod sistematic oamenii cu cele mai slabedeprinderi.

    Principiul lui Dilbert este o variaie aPrincipiului lui Peter.( ro.Wikipedia.org)

    Aplicnd acest principiu oamenilor, ca irezultat al acestor teorii, este faptul c o persoan

    care i atinge pragul de incompeten va gsi altelucruri de fcut pentru a se simi eficient, i se vorgsi efi dornici care s o promoveze, n nici uncaz nu-i va recunoate incompetena.

    Interesante sunt cele 3 legi i cele 2 axiomeale lui Parkinson:

    1. Prima lege a lui Parkinson Orice activitatese extinde att ct s umple ntregul timp afectatefecturii ei.

    2. A doua lege a lui Parkinson Cheltuielilecresc att ct s egaleze veniturile.

    3. A treia lege a lui Parkinson Expansiunea

    nseamn complexitate i complexitatea decdere;

    In this respect, consider that the members of

    an organization will be promoted up to theirmaximum level of competence, and then any future

    promotions will raise them to a level where theybecome incompetent.

    Conclusion: Ideally, employees who excel in ajob that requires certain skills to be rewarded bysalary increases and not by promotion.

    Being a professional in your field of activitywill not make you become a teacher able to teachwhat you know, that being said for example insport, any good player will not become a good a

    coach after he retires. Knowing the the mainobjective of activity will intervene next to certainpersonal qualities, which they hold, others acquirethem or simply they do not possess them.

    Dilbert's principle refers to a satirical theoryof the 1990s. According to this, companies tend to

    promote the worst employees in managementpositions, to prevent damage to consumerexperience by those employees.

    The term was introduced by Scott Adams, agraduate from Berkeley.

    Adams explains: "The most ineffectiveworkers are transferred systematically, in aposition where they can lower the damage: themanagement. It's like I have turned the nature rulesupside down "," Identify and systematically

    promote the people with the worst skills ".Dilbert's Principle is a variation of the Peter

    Principle.( ro.Wikipedia.org)Applying this principle to the people, as a

    result of these theories is that a person who reachesthe threshold of incompetence will find other

    things to do in order to feel effective, and will findleaders willing to promote it, in any case will notrecognize incompetence.

    Interesting are the three laws and twoParkinson's axioms:

    perform it.2. Parkinson's Second Law - costs increase so

    as to match income.3. Parkinson's Third Law - Expansion means

    Axiom 1 - An official wants to increasesubordinates, not rivals.

    Axiom 2 - Officials pass their work from oneto another.

    In conclusion, every bureaucratic structure iscomposed of officials who apply regulationswithout thinking or from incompetent officials thatwill create a new number of criteria, proceduresand rules that will seek to expand their teams.

    In general, public administration activity isperceived by citizens in a negative way, it is self

    serving and not serving the general interests ofcitizens. It is often seen as being corrupt, highlybureaucratized, having in their structures moreincompetent than competent officials.

    Local administration has specialists trained inall areas of local administration, often vacanciesare made on the specialty that person has preparedand wants to be hired, not the specialty of that

    position.The fact that government has a monopoly in

    providing services which are usually not required

    by citizens, but often are taxes imposed by thestate, develops the aggressive behaviour of thecitizen towards the official on the counter.

    Why, if you still have to pay taxes enacted bylaws and ordinances, and have to be walked fromone window to another and treated withindifference or pride? I am convinced that each ofus has turned to state institutions at least once tosolve something, either for a right or a stateenacted obligation.

    We, citizens are free to think so:

    Am I entitled to child benefit, but why forgetting it I must complete and submit a bunch ofpapers?

    Why to build me a house on my property, Imust obtain a certificate and buildings permit, so Imust submit documentation and request it and payall kinds of state taxes?

    I do not understand why I should pay taxes onmy own car because the roads where this taxshould be used are becoming worse, but as a goodcitizen I go to Finance, stand in lines, walk from awindow to another and, if I am "lucky", I manage
