A Bureaucratic-Centered Image of Governance: The Founders' Thought in Modern Perspective
本文考察美国建国时期关于官僚制的政治思想，指出开国者并非如传统观点那样忽视官僚制，而是以与现代截然不同的概念框架分析它，这有助于理解当代官僚权力争论。
This article contributes to the “bureaucratic-centered image of governance” research program advocated by Hill (1991). It examines political thought about bureaucracy during America's formative period, making the central argument that conventional wisdom about the founders is wrong: What is now called bureaucracy was quite important to their thinking. At the same time, however, the conceptual schema within which they analyzed bureaucracy was radically different from the present schema. This difference illuminates important attributes of contemporary debates about the power of bureaucracy. These themes are explored by examining three works comprising the canon of the Republican synthesis, a recent interpretation of revolutionary and immediate postrevolutionary political thought.
