ABSTRACT

The main objective of this work is to analyze the way in which Maurício Tragtenberg
and Fernando Cláudio Prestes Motta conceived bureaucracy. The specific objectives
are: to understand the main characteristics of bureaucracy according to Weber, the
author who has most influence on the work of Tragtenberg and Prestes Motta; to
arrive at an understanding of bureaucracy as expressed in the work of Tragtenberg,
to learn how bureaucracy is understood in the work of Prestes Motta and to analyze
the relationships that exist between the understanding of bureaucracy in
Tragtenberg and Prestes Motta. In analyzing the authors consideration was given to
their concept of bureaucracy, their intellectual trajectory, the order of their
production, epistemologies, space and historical time, the semantic, ideological and
cultural dimension and questions that are important for an understanding of the
theoretical development of the concept. The conclusion was reached that, despite
the differences in the intellectual paths of Tragtenberg and Prestes Motta,
bureaucracy is understood by both as being organization, power and control.

Keywords: Bureaucracy, power, control, Maurício Tragtenberg, Fernando Claudio
