Résumé anglais Carter's intended reshuffling of federal bureaucracy. The author gives some prominence to the rather reserved public reception in the U.S. of President Carter's reform plans. The U.S. Administration is a tentacular monster that will enlace reformers. However, President Carter attempts to deal directly with this general skepticism, hoping to restore thereby the public's confidence in his administration. The issue takes therefore an ideological turn. Yet, do such plans have any chance ? In order to provide an answer to this query, the author analyses the various deadlocks responsible for red tapery. The main hitch appears to him the unflagging tension between President and Congress. One of the main remedies envisaged by the President to tackle this difficulty is the adoption of zero-based budgeting. At the same time, President Carter is reconsidering his relations with Congress so as to avoid a number of deadlocks. Yet, not all reserves of this assembly have been dispelled, a fact which leaves some doubt as to the effectiveness of Carter's reform.
