Definition
"La burocratització" refers to the process by which an administration or organization becomes increasingly governed by formal rules, procedures, and hierarchical structures, often resulting in slower decision-making and reduced flexibility, as seen in the phrase 'La burocratització de l'administració va frenar el canvi polític.'
Etymology
The word "la burocratització" originates from the Catalan adaptation of the French word 'bureaucratisation,' which itself comes from 'bureaucratie,' combining 'bureau' (desk) and the Greek-derived suffix '-cratie' (power or rule). Did you know? The term humorously suggests that power lies in the desks of officials rather than the people.
