The concept of organization and methods in the Science of Administration

Summary/Abstract: Daily reality shows a rapid increase in shares volume of the administration in general, towards public administration. Efficiency can be reduced by excessive bureaucracy due to the slow circulation circuits or complicated documents coming from those administered to the administration or vice versa. The necessity to methodically organize the administrative action in a rational manner, has determined the appearance of the notion of organization and method. Daniel Moulias considers that the concept of organization and method comprises of two components: organization - component having concrete character - and method - abstract component, in the form of ways of thinking. Charles Debbasch defines organization and method as a set of techniques intended to improve the functioning of the public administration. In specialized literature the definition was formulated, to which we subscribe, that organization and method constitute a set of processes and methods that can be used to obtain a rational organization of public administration action and on the basis of this organization there is effective action. Although the result of the organization and method is improving the functioning of the public administration, thus improving the whole administrative action, however, the scope of application remains exclusively that of the organization of the administrative action. Because private administration and public administration have different characteristics, they have different methods of organization.
