Bureaucracy is a global problem of socio-economic development.

Abstract

The article titled "Bureaucracy is a Global Problem of Socio-Economic Development" by M. Azizur Rahman published in The Daily Financial Express on October 6, 2012, examines how bureaucratic inefficiencies hinder socio-economic progress worldwide. It highlights that in many developing countries, rigid administrative systems, characterized by excessive red tape and lack of responsiveness, have become obstacles to effective governance and development. The article argues that such bureaucratic structures often perpetuate poverty and underdevelopment instead of facilitating growth. It emphasizes the need for comprehensive reforms aimed at enhancing transparency, accountability, and efficiency within bureaucracies to foster sustainable socio-economic development.
