- W942949457 abstract "The public administration context in Afghanistan is characterized by a high degree of informality, weak central government agencies, extremely limited human resource capacities across Government departments and agencies, a serious and a widening disconnect between the center, and sub-national levels of administration, the continued pressures exerted on government structures by poorly coordinated donor initiatives, 'warlordism', and, an informal economy dominated by the opium economy. In such a context, the conventional approaches to public administration reform that emphasize formality, and uniformity of reforms, and their consistent implementation across government has been found wanting. Alternative ways of responding to the challenge of administrative reform are necessary, but risky. The Priority Reform and Restructuring ('PRR') framework adopted in 2003, marks a departure from the conventional approaches to public administration reform. The approach breaks a cardinal rule that in weak environments, civil service reforms should be even-handed and prima facie, running the risk that if pay awards are authorized at the agency level on a discretionary basis, then the process will inevitably be politically captured. The approach has some elements in common with the more advanced reforms implemented by many Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) countries - although there is an awareness in government, and amongst donors and advisers, that the ingrained discipline in the behavior of civil servants and politicians, assumed in these OECD reforms, is largely absent in Afghanistan. Despite the very real risks, there are some grounds for modest optimism. However, the level of technical assistance and capacity building, in both the Independent Administrative Reform and Civil Service Commission (IARCSC) and ministries/agencies to implement and oversee, the PRR process will need to be increased substantially over the coming months, in order to manage what now appears to be an exponential increase in the uptake of PRR." @default.
