Q Explain in your own words the politics-administration dichotomy. Describe what you can infer about the dichotomy (ideas of practice vs. theory). Give examples to support the argument of your side/position.
The most glaring argument that is valid and strong since years after years is about contradictions between politics and administration in a nation. In this context, the first formal differentiation was made by American president Woodsrow Wilson, who claimed that the administration service should be merit based and separated from the hurry and strife of politics. While these two sectors of administration and politics are completely intertwined with each other, these two sectors also have prominent contrasts in their procedures and operations. Nowadays, it has been evidenced that these two terms “politics” and “government” are used synonymously and often the works of politics are equated with government.
