This chapter examines the often-overlooked but vital role of bureaucracies and institutions in society, drawing parallels with historical events like Dr. John Snow's cholera research.

The discussion also underscores the need for a richer narrative around bureaucratic contributions to crucial areas like healthcare and education.
