>It seems to me that a classic problem in the WW is actually a *lack* 
of a professional bureaucracy.  That is to say, people are put in 
positions more for reasons of connections and nepotism than for 
individual merit.<

This is a link to a completely brilliant essay by Pharnabazus on the 
government of the WW:  
http://www.livejournal.com/community/hp_essays/7250.html

It's long (10 parts with an appendix), but it's so well put together 
and well written that it's an easy read.  It gives some major 
insights into the power structure of the WW, shows the DA in a new 
light, and helps explain some of the actions Percy and for that 
matter Lucius Malfoy have taken.  At this risk of sounding like a 
squealing fangirl (too late?), everyone and their dog should read it.
