Definition

Etymology
The term "de bureaucratisering" comes from the Dutch word for bureaucracy, which itself originates from the French 'bureau' meaning office, combined with the Greek-derived suffix '-cracy,' meaning power or rule. The suffix '-isering' indicates the process of becoming, so "de bureaucratisering" literally means the process of becoming bureaucratic.
