Decentralization is a process by which the activities of an organization, especially for those who are planning and decision-making. It also makes them improve their employees' and managers' morale. It has been applied to Businesses and group dynamics and political science, technology, economics, and money. The word "décentralisation” has been applied since mid 1820 “décentralisation” as the post revolutionary French Directory. “Decentralization” entered written English in the first third of the 1800s. Tocqueville would write that the French Revolution began with a “push towards decentralization” but also became an extension of centralization. In 1863 a retired French bureaucrat Maurice Block wrote an article called “Decentralization” for a French journal that reviewed the dynamics of government and bureaucratic centralization and recent French efforts at decentralization of government functions, but the ideas of decentralization were carried to their logical conclusions during the 19th to 20th century by anti-state political activist calling themselves “anarchists”. And “libertarians” and even “decentralists”.
