| Summary, etc. | In an address in 2003, Senator Kim Carr cited A.F. Davies' much-quoted observation that Australians have 'a characteristic talent for bureaucracy' (Carr 2003: 3). He referred to the achievements of bureaucrats like Nugget Coombs, then went on to discuss questions of accountability, values and political control in the Australian public service. How could the public service be responsive and responsible, and contribute to the maintenance of a democratic society, in today's world? Certainly, these were core concerns of Davies, as Walter argues in an insightful article (1999). Davies, Walter argues, 'was concerned, throughout his career, with the links between bureaucracy and democracy' (1999, 25), fearful that the life-world is increasingly being structured by expertise, and in the domain of the experts, there is little room for individual voice, for passion, or for democratic control. Davies' concerns, and those of Carr and Walter, raise important questions about the way in which we understand the structure of government, the significance of our changing understanding for the democratic ideal, and the implications of these changes for social scientists |
