To formulate thoughts on the history of Street-bureaucracy: I had trouble finding literature on the formation of street-level bureaucrats, so I wanted to start by looking at the individual organizations/bureaus that were created in the beginning of American history.

-US postal service should be first

- Public education starts rising soon-after

- Then there were also tax-collectors

- Public roads and railways

- Police

-Firemen

-Hospitals

-Social work

and that's all I can think of at the moment.... I am still attempting to obtain literature to allow my ideas for this history section to come to fruition.

Different cultures on Street-level bureaucracy:

This takes place in just about every country, from communist, democratic, and to a small extent corrupt developing countries.
