Geçmişten Günümüze Temsilî Bürokrasi Anlayışının Gelişimi ve Bürokrasinin Meşruiyeti Üzerindeki Etkileri

Bu çalışmada, temsilî bürokrasi kavramının gelişimi ve toplumsal farklılıkların bürokrasi içerisinde temsilinin önemli sonuçlarından birisi olan bürokrasinin toplumsal meşruiyeti üzerindeki etkisi teorik olarak araştırılmıştır. Temsilî bürokrasi kavramı, bürokrasinin, siyasal iktidarın değişimi ihtimaline karşı mevcut sınıfsal yapısının korunması için icat edilmiş bir kavramdır. Kavram, temel hedefleri sabit kalacak şekilde anlamı ve uygulama alanı genişleyerek ve sürekli bir demokratikleşme vurgusu yapılarak yaygınlaşmıştır. Temsilî bürokrasi uygulamaları, bürokratik alanda demokratikleşmeyi hedeflemenin yanı sıra toplumda mevcut bürokratik yapı ve işleyişe destek sağlayarak, bürokrasinin varlığını sürdürmesini kolaylaştırmakta mıdır? Sorusuna cevap aranmıştır. Bu çalışma, nitel araştırma tekniklerinden keşfedici araştırma tekniği ile yapılmıştır. Temsilî bürokrasi düşüncesi, başlangıçta, toplumun sınıfsal yapısının korunması için geliştirilmiştir. 1960’lı yıllardan sonra ise toplumsal farklılıkların bürokraside temsili sağlanarak, bürokrasiye daha geniş katılım ve destek sağlamak için yaygınlaştırılmıştır. Temsilî bürokrasi kavramı, ülkelerin, toplumsal ve ekonomik sorunlarının çözümünde bürokratik bir araca dönüşmüş, siyasal ve bürokratik katılımı teşvik etmiştir. Toplumun iktisadî sisteme ve devlete yabancılaşması ve meşruiyetin azalması sorununa bir çözüm aracı olarak kullanılmıştır.

The Development of Representative Bureaucracy from Past to Present and Its Effects on the Legitimacy of Bureaucracy

In this study, the development of the concept of representative bureaucracy and its impact on the social legitimacy of bureaucracy, which is one of the important consequences of the representation of social differences in bureaucracy, are theoretically investigated. The concept of representative bureaucracy was invented to protect the existing class structure of the bureaucracy against the possibility of a change in political power. The concept has become widespread with a constant emphasis on democratization, expanding in meaning and application while keeping its basic objectives constant. Do representative bureaucracy practices facilitate the existence of bureaucracy by supporting the existing bureaucratic structure and functioning in the society, as well as aiming at democratization in the bureaucratic field? The answer to the question was sought. This study was conducted with the exploratory research technique, one of the qualitative research techniques. The idea of representative bureaucracy was initially developed to preserve the class structure of society. After the 1960s, the representation of social differences in the bureaucracy was ensured and expanded to ensure wider participation and support in the bureaucracy. The concept of representative bureaucracy has turned into a bureaucratic tool for solving the social and economic problems of countries and has encouraged political and bureaucratic participation. It was used as a solution to the problem of the alienation of society from the economic system and the state and the decline in legitimacy. Key Words: Representative Bureaucracy, Legitimacy, Participation JEL Classification: H59, D73, H10
