| Résumé anglais |
After the intensive preparatory work of establishing budgetary categories and
accounting norms, defining indicators, choosing new actors, information systems, and
numerous other matters directly involving thousands of civil servants ; after the actual
changeover of public management to the “LOLF (Loi organique sur les lois de finances)
mode”, the time has come to take perspective on medium-term changes in the
administration – to put aside voluntarist and operational discourse and take a close look
at the various concepts pertaining to the reforms, the precise content of the budgetary and
administrative changes in question, and the link between the two. What appears is that
the LOLF is more the starting point of a reform than a revolution : the majority of its
technical concepts were widely tested in France in the context of the rationalisation of
budgetary choices, or partake of a certain continuity, going hand in hand with progress
made in public management since the 1980s. It also appears that the effects of the LOLF
in the domain of state reform are most specifically felt in the modernisation of public
management, enhancing the status of public service rather than the contrary or a
neo-liberal shrinking of the same. Finally, it is clear that the success of the LOLF will
depend essentially on the involvement of society as a whole – civil servants and citizens
alike. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
