Résumé
Reform of the Civil Service in Cambodia : a Sign of Transition The transition in Cambodia from communist dictatorship to liberal democracy has been fraught with similar difficulties to those experienced by all former communist countries, but also with others which are a product of its particular history and culture. Reform of the Cambodian civil service is a telling example. Alongside the heritage of a robust conception of public sector employment lies a deficiency of authority and a lack of means to introduce reforms. Thus, Cambodia finds itself torn between international pressures to reform and local practices open to all influences, hindering any attempt at modernisation. Until now resistance has triumphed over reform, leading the govemment to introduce a two-speed System which is being applied to the civil service.
