Max Weber でもいってなかったっけ？

Using the Lens of Max Weber's Theory of Bureaucracy to Examine E-Government Research.

Some authors have noted that in the Weberian model the rules end up becoming goals in their own right; the lack of flexibility and adaptation of the rules generates inappropriate results; the administrative units generate objectives that conflict with the objectives of the organisation and this leads to a "resistance to change".

Disadvantages of Bureaucracy
Red tape: Bureaucracy, by its very character, follows a certain set of rules and regulations. This imparts a lack of flexibility and can often lead to inefficiency.

They convey images of red tape, excessive rules and regulations, unimaginativeness, a lack of individual discretion, central control, and an absence of accountability. Far from being conceived as proficient, popular contemporary portrayals often paint bureaucracies as inefficient and lacking in adaptability.
