Bentham and Bureaucracy - Cambridge Studies in the History and Theory of Politics
L. J. Hume
Most accounts of Bentham treat him as a prophet of either utilitarianism or of liberal democracy. This book discusses a less familiar but very important aspect of his political thought: his theory of how government institutions should be organised in order to function as efficient and yet responsive guardians of the community's interests.
