Abstract
The conflict between civil servants and politicians has often been described as the basic problem of modern authorities. For this reason, one must understand and thus research the relationship between these two groups of veryinfluential actors in order to understand the governing process. In moderndemocracies, civil servants have outgrown their classic role of mere implementors of orders given by politicians. Both civil servants and politicians serve the same democratic state, and both are heirs to the democratic evolution. Our hypothesis is based mainly on the historically developed division of labour between bureaucracy and politics. Civil servants have never been tasked with creating the conditions for more democracy in the state, but instead with creating the conditions for a more effective and successful state. Given that political bodies in which politicians operate have been established as the institutionalised personification of democracy, the task of politicians is above all the promotion of democracy, its values and norms (Aberbach et al, 1981: 174).
