Abstract
Why would anyone want to make the change? If the existing arrangements work well enough what would be the point? It’s a valid observation. The traditional ‘rational-legal’ hierarchical bureaucracy was thought by Max Weber to represent the culmination of greatest efficiency from the personal charismatic leadership and traditional patronage type alternatives. It has substantially been the key vehicle from delivery of UK public services since the middle part of the 19th century. As we’ve seen, alternatives have been around at least since the end of the Second World War, and substantially developed for the past 30 or more years. Yet there has been little shift towards an alternative paradigm.
