principal-agent theory
definition: Principal-agent theory is based on a hierarchical notion of political relationships that traces back to the politics-administration dichotomy first enunciated by Woodrow Wilson in 1887. Politics involves deciding who gets what, while administration deals with how—and arguably, when—it is delivered. [Source: The Encyclopedia of Political Science; Principal-agent Theory]
