Bureaucracy[edit]

The term bureaucracy comes from the French word bureau, meaning desk or office, and refers to an unelected group within an office or institution that implement that institution’s rules, laws and ideas. It can also refer to an administration defined by extreme amounts of ‘red tape’ or strict and complex procedures that need to be circumnavigated in order to achieve anything and can sometimes be a hindrance to progress within the institution.
