Preferred term

politics-administration dichotomy  

Definition(s)

  • The politics-administration dichotomy posits a clear distinction between practices of governance that belong to the realm of the political on the one hand, and those that belong to that of bureaucracy on the other hand. The contribution of this dichotomy to the field of public administration has been periodically debated in the literature throughout the twentieth century.
