The Use of Professional Expertise in A Patrimonial Administration

Mehran Sepehri and Mohsen Ghadiri

Abstract— Limited studies in public administration research have addressed the contextual-local problems in non-Western nations. This qualitative research aims at institutional features of Iran public procurement, on the effects of patrimonialism on government procurement as a vulnerable function of the public sector. The patrimonial-rentier authority has a crucial impact on different aspects of Iranian public procurement. In critical purchasing decisions with remarkable economic consequences, a bureaucratic-expert coalition prevails to prevent government from following the ineffective patrimonial-rentier order. Due to the flood of oil revenues, patrimonialism continues to remain the dominant factor in a majority of procurement contracts in Iran, exemplified by the long-term partnerships between the government and a few exclusivist companies.

Index Terms— Patrimonialism, public procurement, rentier state, public sector, public administration.
