Do people make institution? Or does institution, in turn, make people? That is a puzzled question. This article tries to answer the question. Through disscussing the history background of contemporary bureaucracy emergence and its crises, the authors claim that people reap what they sow (i.e. people make themselves their own slaves). If we would like to recover humanism of public administration, the first major work is not to overthrow the present bureaucracies, but to deeply reflect on our own selves.
