source des initiatives en matière de réforme Explanation: Locus = lieu D'où proviennent les initiatives pour réformer la gouvernance? De l'intérieur où de l'extérieur du pays? Il me semble qu'on peu traduire par "source". "Locus of initiative: This characteristic relates to where the impetus for tackling corruption resides. Does the initiative for reform come from the actor that is espousing the change? Is there an indication that the actor perceives corruption as an issue requiring attention? Or is the initiative for change lodged with an external group that has induced or coerced the actor to accept or endorse the anti- corruption issue? “Home-grown” initiative for anti- corruption activities demonstrates that reformers themselves perceive corruption as a salient issue, that they have ownership for doing something about it, and that they are willing to champion the efforts necessary to fight it. Imported or imposed initiative confronts the perennial problem of needing to build commitment and ownership; and there is always the question of whether espousals of willingness to pursue reform are genuine or not. The indicator would be a range from high to low of the extent to which initiative for anti-corruption activities lies with the reformer(s). Higher ratings indicate stronger political will for reform." http://www.usaid.gov/our_work/democracy_and_governance/.../w... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 14 mins (2010-12-26 12:40:06 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- ou "l'origine" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 17 mins (2010-12-26 12:43:16 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- "starting with the locus ..." : dès qu'ils ont déterminé la source/ l'origine (interne ou externe) |
