Even though technocracy has yet to arrive as a governing system, the issues posed by the project are now seen to be critical concerns in contemporary political and social theory. In every environment, there are experts and their functions in society are recognized to be among the most fundamental social and political issues of our time. There is, however, an important difference between early and modern theories of technocratic development. Whereas earlier technocratic writers saw knowledge replacing politics in governance processes, leading contemporary theorists no longer necessarily see the ascent of experts ushering in the demise of politics per se. Some postindustrial writers maintain that technocratic strategies only lead to a new type of politics, much more technical in nature. Indeed, it is from this premise that the study draws its primary theme; “the politics of expertise.”
