Max Weber's pre-World War I analysis of bureaucracy reveals his belief in the efficiency of the Prussian General Staff, contrasting it with Germany's other institutions, which he viewed as hindered by self-interest. He criticized the Civil Service, industry, and army for their inability to achieve excellence. After his death, his wife Marianne published a model that omitted Weber's favorable views on military bureaucracy, highlighting a significant shift in the portrayal of his ideas.
