Explanation:

Max Weber was a German Sociologist who developed the theory of the structure of the authority. He also described the activities of the organization depending on the relations of the authorities. He defined an 'ideal bureaucracy' as a system where the rules and regulations, the division of labor and the hierarchy are distinct. He also included that such type of 'ideal bureaucracy' does not exist in reality and in the real world.
