Summary

This quote suggests that bureaucracy is not a hindrance to democracy but rather a necessary addition to it. It implies that the administrative and organizational systems inherent in bureaucracy are essential for the smooth functioning of a democratic society.

It ensures that decisions are made with proper procedures and expertise, preventing arbitrary or unfair decision-making. In this sense, bureaucracy supports democracy by creating structures and processes that uphold the principles of equality, transparency, and efficiency in governance.
