This article attempts to analyze how the bureaucratic principles of organizing public administration evolved from Max Weber to public administration at the beginning of the 21st century. It is mentioned that M. Weber’s formulation regarding the ideal type of bureaucracy is a classic approach of public administration. Public administration practice confirms that bureaucracy is not as predictable and clear as described in M. Weber’s theory of bureaucracy. Unlike the ideal model of bureaucracy developed by M. Weber, the current system of public administration is an open system and incorporates much more complex features. This fact is conditioned by a series of factors that influence the activity of the public administration including: the level of development of democracy, economic and social development, information technologies, leadership style, administrative culture, professionalization of civil servants, etc.

This work investigates the integrity and complexity of legal regulations regarding the political neutrality of the civil servant. As for incompatibilities/prohibitions, these are found in three normative acts, lacking in some regulations such as political neutrality, and could be qualified as vague or ambiguous, due to the fact that they are deduced from the principles of conduct or the notion of self-interest for the obligation to declare the conflict of interests. The normative framework in force establishes the civil servant in an area of extended uncertainty on political parties as well.

Today’s global health crises (Covid-19 pandemic) reminds us once again how useful and important is the information and communication technology (ICT) for world, states, governments, public and private administrations, and of course for each citizen. When the public institutions (educational entities, post offices, public service providers, public medical institutions, central and local administrations etc.) and private (bank and financial institutions, private service providers etc.) have been closed in order to reduce and stop the extension of the virus, the ICT has a crucial role in assuring the continuity of life and the social and economical vital activities. That is way in this article we are going to examine and analyze the role and impact of ICT upon governments and public administrations.

In a complex, uncertain and changing context in which public administration is developing its activity, the social and financial crises demand innovation not only in public services, but within the whole bureaucratic system of public governance.
