Technocracy is defined as
"the government or control of society or industry by an elite of technical experts."
In short the idea of technical experts managing or running society seems on its face theoretically good. But would technocrats make good decisions? Decisions good for people? Good for themselves? Good for their friends? Would technocrats be less corrupt?
It reminds me a tad of the people who claim Heinlen's vision of a world ruled by military veterans and service people would somehow be a wonderfully functional world, when its likely it would succumb to the same sort of corruption, political parties and power plays all human orders have.

In my own commentary I am much more critical and skeptical of Technocracy and Technocrats. A technocrat is assured to give no concern to the lives he or she might ruin, only to account sheets and balances on ledgers. A technocrat is a deluded person because they pretend to be unbiased, just recommending the best answers. The Technocrat tries to create an illusion of a disinterested, professional management of affairs of state. However, that is just that - an illusion. Technocrats are as subject to personal bias, self-glorification and pursuit of self-interest as are politicians, Kings, tyrants, bankers and other disreputable people.
The problem of Technocrats and Technocracy is there exists a deluded hope that people exist somewhere whose nature is pure and they are above the petty evils of politics and will rule well, or perhaps its a factor that Technocracy is very popular with people whom fancy themselves experts and thus would make up such a ruling class and have a vested interest in promoting themselves as not tyrants in the making but merely disinterested professional managers, just technical experts giving the best optimized solutions. Ignore them stuffing their own pockets, or other rank corruption, they are in short a utopian fevered dream.
BUT that is just my opinion.
