American Government,
Readings and Cases, by Peter Woll (12th ed.)
1. Constitutional
Democracy and Bureaucratic Power, Peter Woll
The Constitutional system
did not take into account the rise of the administrative branch, which
has become a fourth branch of government exercising legislative, judicial,
and executive functions.
2. The
Rise of the Bureaucratic State, James Q. Wilson
Private-sector political
demands for government services, regulation, and protection have created
a client-serving bureaucracy that has become a powerful political force
in its own right. Administrative departments and agencies respond more
to special than to broad national interest.

Bureaucracy (Supplemental Reading Material)
