Quo Vadis of the Organizational Restructuring of Local Government

The research aims to describe the profile and restructuring process of organizational structure of Maros District government. The research uses the theory of organization, concept of local bureaucracy and local government to enrich the study. Through the method of qualitative research and the data analysis technique of interactive model, the research finds that the organizational restructuring of local government was conducted through new formation, merging, division, and removal, either in the structural position, or regional working unit itself. The study also shows the presence of several structural positions and working units that have more than one function. This indicates that the restructuring and functioning of local government organizations has not reflected the rationality of local bureaucracy and shows the complexity of the functions inherent in the organizational structure of local government.
