How Bureaucracy is used as Power Control Tool?
19.01.25
From Alexis de Tocqueville: Thus the sovereign, after taking each individual in his powerful hands in turn and transforming him as he pleases, stretches his arms over society as a whole; he covers its surface with a network of small, complicated, narrow and uniform rules, which not even the most original minds and the strongest souls can penetrate if they wish to leave the crowd behind; he does not break the will, but weakens, bends and guides it; he rarely compels action, but constantly stands in the way of action; he does not destroy, he hinders creation; he does not tyrannize, he harasses, oppresses, enfeebles, weakens, stultifies, and finally reduces every nation to the point of being nothing more than a herd of timid and busy animals, of which the government is the shepherd.
