Abstract
michael parenti is a professor of political science at several American universities. He has a PhD in political science from Yale University. He is known for being a progressive activist and a provocative thinker. As such, he wrote numerous books that focused on the American nation, the role of USA in the world and the power of money. The relation between democracy and the economic power - which is particularly present in his book democracy for the few also belongs to his favourite themes.
michael parenti's major objective in this excerpt is to point out the fact that we have to consider the tasks of the bureaucracy as political ones. His purpose is hence to investigate the politico-administrative world of the United States of America, showing to what extent and how exactly the administrative departments and agencies are situated on the center of a network of power and contradictory interests.
