This paper aims to study theories regarding Bureaucratic Reform by Comparing Problems and Solutions to understand appropriate bureaucracy for different social contexts since Bureaucratic Reform concerns many aspects, such as social environment, norms, and people’s behavior. In that regard, no theory can fit every situation; therefore, the researcher considers the comparative method to understand the conditions behind each Bureaucratic Reform theory. This paper uses examples by comparing the concept of coordinating between Government and Governance theories to show the difference in the conditions of people, environment, aims, and modus operandi in periods before the 1900s and 1990s and each theory’s suggestions in problem-solving which bring to the paper conclusion as studying these conditions will give comprehension and contribution to the theories and giving means to connect theories with actual practice in the environment of multiple-theories.
