Bureaucracy as an organizing principle has clearly lost ground in the private sector, so the extension of this to government may be less a matter of ideology and more a response to its theoretical failures. Another argument against linking marketisation and the move from bureaucracy is that they produce different effects on the public sector.
Marketisation leads to shrinking of government, but what remained of a government that embraced markets could still function in a traditional bureaucratic way. The movement against bureaucracy could occur regardless of size and may prove to be more fundamental and more sweeping than a reduction in public operations.
