Abstract

This article aims to explore the conflict between democratization and bureaucratization of university management and its coordination mechanism, so as to optimize the governance structure of universities, improve management efficiency and promote the connotative development of tertiary education. Firstly, this article analyzes the connotation, characteristics and potential conflicts between democratization and bureaucratization of university management, and makes clear the research background and significance. Then, on the basis of in-depth analysis of the root causes and manifestations of the conflict, a coordination mechanism including optimizing the decision-making process, adjusting the power structure, strengthening the role of school affairs and campus culture construction, and establishing an implementation guarantee and assessment system is constructed in order to realize the benign interaction and complementarity between the two. The research shows that the democratization and bureaucratization of university management do have potential conflicts while promoting the development of the school. Through the coordination mechanism proposed in this article, these conflicts can be effectively alleviated, management efficiency can be improved, and the sense of participation and satisfaction of educators and learners can be enhanced. The conclusion is that by constructing an effective coordination mechanism, the harmonious coexistence of democratization and bureaucracy in university management can be realized, and the scientific, democratic and efficient management of universities can be promoted.
