It is true that many of the web sites dealing with bureaucracy tend to
lean to the satiric or a parody of the institution. Many sites hold
the bureaucracy in contempt. So I think you have a good question here.

I can send you now to one site that will link you to several sites on
the subject of the bureaucracy. Visit this StudyWeb page on the
bureaucracy:

I count 24 links to articles and sites on the bureaucracy. That should
give you plenty of study references.
