    Abstract: Cette Ligne directrice décrit une épreuve de toxicité aiguë pour évaluer des effets des produits chimiques sur les daphnies (habituellement Daphnia magna Staus). De jeunes daphnies, âgées de moins de 24 heures au début de l'essai, sont exposées à une gamme des concentrations de la substance d'essai (au moins cinq concentrations) pendant une période de 48 heures. L'immobilisation est enregistrée à 24 heures et à 48 heures et comparée aux valeurs contrôles. Les résultats sont analysés afin de calculer la CE50 à 48h. La détermination de la CE50 à 24h est facultative. Au moins 20 animaux, de préférence divisés en quatre groupes de cinq animaux chacun, devraient être employés à chaque concentration d'essai et pour les contrôles. Au moins 2 ml de solution d'essai devraient être prévus pour chaque animal (c.-à-d. un volume de 10 ml pour cinq daphnies par récipient d'essai). L'essai limite correspond à un niveau de dose de 100 mg/l. Le rapport d'étude inclut l'observation des daphnies immobilisées à 24 et 48 heures après le début de l'essai, et les mesures d'oxygène dissous, de pH, de la concentration de la substance d'essai, au début et à la fin de l'essai.

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Essai n 222: Essai de reproduction chez le lombric (Eisenia fetida/Eisenia andrei)
    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: This Test Guideline is designed to be used for assessing the effects of chemicals in soil on the reproductive output (and other sub-lethal end points) of the earthworm species Eisenia fetida or Eisenia andrei. Adult worms are exposed to a range of concentrations of the test substance either mixed into the soil or applied to the soil surface. The range of test concentrations is selected to encompass those likely to cause both sub-lethal and lethal effects over a period of eight weeks. The limit test corresponds to one dose level of 1000 mg/kg. This study includes the observation of unusual behaviour and morphology, the counting and weighing of the adult worms after the four primary weeks, the number of juveniles hatched at the end of the second 4-week period. The reproductive output of the worms exposed to the test substance is compared to that of the control(s) in order to determine the no observed effect concentration (NOEC) and/or ECx by using a regression model to estimate the concentration that would cause a x % reduction in reproductive output. The test concentrations should bracket the ECx so that the ECx then comes from interpolation rather than extrapolation.

    Abstract: The September 11th terrorist attacks, the Chernobyl nuclear accident, Hurricane Andrew and the Kobe earthquake are all recent examples of large-scale disasters that have taken a massive toll in human lives, wealth and property. They have disrupted vital systems such as transport and energy supplies and spilled over into neighbouring as well as distant regions. They have also generated widespread anxiety, and in some cases created deep-seated public mistrust of governments' ability to protect their citizens. This book is based on a report prepared between May and July 2003 by a multi-disciplinary team of experts from inside and outside of the OECD. It examines the economic and social impacts of past large-scale disasters, and draws a number of key lessons for the future. Its focus is on better prevention of disasters, and on restoring trust and securing recovery in their aftermath.

    Abstract: Knowledge management involves any activity related to the capture, use and sharing of knowledge by an organisation. Evidence shows that these practices are being used more and more frequently and that their impact on innovation and other aspects of corporate performance is far from negligible. Today, there is a recognition of the need to understand and to measure the activity of knowledge management so that organisations can be more efficient and governments can develop policies to promote these benefits. This book offers a synthetic view of the results of the first systematic international survey on knowledge management carried out by national statistical offices in Canada, Denmark, France and Germany.

    Abstract: Die OECD-Grundsätze der Corporate Governance wurden 1999 vom Rat der OECD auf Ministerebene gebilligt und sind seitdem zu einer internationalen Richtschnur für politische Entscheidungsträger, Investoren, Unternehmen und sonstige interessierte Gruppen in aller Welt geworden. Sie haben die Corporate-Goverance-Agenda vorangebracht und liefern präzise Orientierungshilfen für Gesetzes- und Regulierungsinitiativen in OECD-Mitglieds- wie auch Nichtmitgliedsländern. Das Forum für Finanzmarktstabilität hat die Grundsätze in den Katalog der zwölf Kernstandards für solide Finanzsysteme aufgenommen. Die Grundsätze bilden ferner die Ausgangsbasis eines umfassenden Programms der Zusammenarbeit zwischen OECD- und Nicht-OECD-Ländern und dienen als Grundlage für das Corporate-Governance-Modul der Weltbank/IWF-Berichte über die Einhaltung von Standards und Kodizes (Reports on the Observance of Standards and Codes ROSC).

    Keywords: Education
    Abstract: Earthquake-prone communities need earthquake-resistant schools. In 2002, a primary school in San Giuliano, Italy, collapsed killing 29 children and one teacher. In May 2003, a medium-sized earthquake in the city of Bingöl, Turkey, caused the collapse of three new schools and a dormitory, killing many children as they slept. All too frequently, earthquakes cause the collapse of school buildings and the injury and death of staff and students. Further, when schools are closed because of earthquake damage, education is hampered, community life disrupted, and potential emergency shelters unavailable. Where school attendance is compulsory, communities have an obligation to provide a safe study and work environment. Why do schools collapse even during moderate earthquakes? Experts agree that many collapse due to avoidable errors in design and construction. Often, the needed technology is not applied and laws and regulations are not sufficiently enforced. Application of existing knowledge can significantly lower the seismic risk of schools and help prevent further injury and death of school occupants during earthquakes. Moreover, this can be accomplished at reasonable cost and within a reasonable period. Keeping Schools Safe in Earthquakes presents expert knowledge, opinions and experiences, and provides valuable insight into the scope of problems involved in protecting schools and their occupants. Its recommendations are a call to action to all governments in OECD and partner countries to help facilitate their implementation.

    Abstract: This review of Sweden’s environmental performance takes stock of Sweden’s environmental performance since the last review done in 1996. It finds that Sweden has benefited from solid institutional and regulatory frameworks, extensive use of economic instruments, and significant planning and legislative reform. To meet its Environmental Quality Objectives, Sweden will need to implement more efficient environmental policies, further integrate environmental concerns with other policy, and further strengthen international environmental cooperation. The report makes 44 recommendations to help strengthen Sweden’s environmental performance in the context of sustainable development.

    Abstract: Cette Ligne directrice est conçue pour évaluer les effets des produits chimiques sur la reproduction d’un ver enchytrée, Enchytraeus albidus Henle 1873, dans le sol. Des enchytrées adultes sont exposés à une gamme de concentrations de la substance d'essai mélangée à un sol artificiel. Dix vers sont aléatoirement assignés à chaque récipient d'essai. Un essai de détermination de l’ordre de grandeur des concentrations devrait être utilisé, durant deux semaines, si des informations manquent. La durée de l'essai définitif est de six semaines. À la fin de l’essai le nombre total de vers juvéniles produits par animal parent et la survie des animaux parents sont évalués. L'essai limite correspond à un niveau de dose de 1000 mg/kg. Le rapport d'essai inclut les changements morphologiques des adultes, le nombre de descendants. Le taux de reproduction des animaux exposés à la substance d'essai est comparé à celui des témoins afin de déterminer la concentration sans effet observé (CSEO) et/ou la CEx, à l'aide d'un modèle de régression pour estimer la concentration qui entraînerait une réduction de x% du taux de reproduction. Les concentrations expérimentales doivent couvrir la CEx, de façon à ce que la CEx soit interpolée plutôt qu'extrapolée.

    Abstract: Le Système Général Harmonisé de Classification et d'Étiquetage des Produits Chimiques définit la corrosion cutanée comme la survenue de lésions irréversibles de la peau après l'application d’une substance d'essai. La substance d'essai (150 µL pour des liquides ou des solides auxquels sont ajouté 150µL de l'eau désionisée) est appliquée pendant une durée n’excédant pas 24 heures sur les surfaces épidermiques des disques de peau (trois disques de peau sont employés pour chaque substance d'essai et de contrôle) dans un système d'essai à deux compartiments dans lequel les disques de peau font office de séparation entre les compartiments. Les disques de peau sont pris sur des rats âgés 28-30 jours euthanasiés. Les substances corrosives sont identifiées par leur capacité à produire une perte de l’intégrité du stratum corneum normal et de sa fonction de barrière, qui est mesurée par la réduction du RET au-dessous d'un seuil d'avertissement (5kΩ pour le rat). Une étape de coloration incorporée à la procédure d'essai permet de déterminer si l'augmentation de la perméabilité ionique est due à la destruction physique du stratum corneum.

    Abstract: L'étude d'absorption cutanée in vivo présentée dans cette Ligne directrice fournit des éléments nécessaires pour extrapoler des études orales lors d’évaluations de sécurité après une exposition cutanée. La méthode in vivo, décrite dans cette Ligne directrice, permet la détermination de la pénétration de la substance d'essai à travers la peau dans le compartiment systémique. La substance d'essai, de préférence radiomarquée, est appliquée, pendant une période fixe, sur la peau rasée des animaux à un ou plusieurs niveaux de dose appropriés, sous la forme d’une préparation d’usage représentative. Le rat est l’espèce généralement la plus utilisée. Au moins quatre animaux d'un sexe devraient être employés pour chaque préparation d'essai et chaque durée prévue. Une quantité connue de la préparation d'essai est appliquée. Cette quantité devrait normalement imiter l'exposition humaine potentielle, en général de 1-5 mg/cm² pour un solide ou jusqu'à 10 µl/cm² pour des liquides. Une période d'exposition de référence (en général 6 ou 24 heures) devrait être employée, en fonction de la durée éventuelle de l’exposition humaine. Les signes de la toxicité et les réactions anormales sont observés par intervalles pour la durée entière de l'étude. Cette étude inclut des mesures quotidiennes (excrétions), des observations détaillées régulières, de même que l’euthanasie à un moment donné et des prélèvements sanguins pour analyse.

    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: This Test Guideline describes the HPLC method, which permits to determine the partition coefficient (n-octanol/water) (Pow).Reverse phase HPLC is performed on analytical columns packed with a solid phase containing long hydrocarbon chains chemically bound onto silica. The chemicals are retained in the column in proportion to their hydrocarbon-water partition coefficient, with hydrophilic chemicals eluted first and lipophilic chemicals last. The HPLC method covers log Pow in the range of 0 to 6, but it can be expanded to cover the log Pow range between 6 and 10 in exceptional cases. The HPLC operation mode is isocratic. The test substance is injected in the smallest detectable quantities in the column. The retention time is determined in duplicate. The partition coefficient of the test substance is obtained by interpolation of the calculated capacity factor on the calibration graph. For very low and very high partition coefficients extrapolation is necessary.

    Keywords: Social Issues/Migration/Health ; Development
    Abstract: Les pouvoirs publics des pays développés ont recours depuis longtemps à des mesures visant de manière directe ou indirecte (par la biais de la fiscalité) à encourager l’ensemble de la population à se constituer un capital grâce à l’épargne, l’accession à la propriété immobilière, les fonds de pension, l’investissement dans la formation (capital humain) ou l’entreprise. Bien souvent, ces mesures ne bénéficient pas aux pauvres. En effet, l’action publique ne stimule pas l’épargne pour ces catégories, elle a même plutôt un effet dissuasif. Pourtant, ce livre montre que les pauvres ont envie d’épargner et qu'ils parviennent à mettre de côté des sommes modestes, parfois au prix de sacrifices beaucoup plus importants que ne l’imaginent les décideurs et les catégories favorisées. Élargir les politiques de constitution du patrimoine aux pauvres peut être un élément décisif dans la lutte contre la pauvreté et l’aliénation sociale et économique. En terme de bien-être social, ces politiques ont des effets que la garantie de ressources ne saurait à elle seule générer. Cette publication fournit le contexte indispensable à un débat fructueux sur les mérites et les inconvénients de la constitution de patrimoine chez les pauvres. Elle définit les notions fondamentales sur lesquelles reposent les dispositifs de constitution de patrimoine, ainsi que les avantages qu’y voient ses tenants du point de vue de la politique sociale. Enfin, cette publication décrit des programmes et des projets concrets.

    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: This Test Guideline is designed to assess the effects of prolonged exposure of chemicals to the sediment-dwelling larvae of the freshwater dipteran Chironomus sp. First instar chironomid larvae are exposed to at least five concentrations of the test chemical in sediment-water systems. The test starts by placing first instar larvae into the test beakers containing the sediment-water system and subsequently spiking the test substance into the water. Chironomid emergence and development rate is measured at the end of the test. The maximum exposure duration is 28 days for C. riparius, C. yoshimatsui, and 65 days for C. tentans. Larval survival and weight may also be measured after 10 days if required (using additional replicates as appropriate). The study report should include the development time and the total number of fully emerged midges (sex and number are recorded daily), the observation of any abnormal behaviour, the number of visible pupae that have failed to emerge and any egg masses deposition. The data are analysed either by using a regression model in order to estimate the concentration that would cause x % reduction in emergence, larvae survival or growth, or by using statistical hypothesis testing to determine a NOEC/LOEC.

    Abstract: In October 2001, the Stability Pact and the OECD launched the Regulatory Governance Initiative (RGI) to strengthen the institutional, knowledge and process capacities for developing and implementing more efficient and effective regulation, supportive of sound and competitive markets. The RGI is one of the policy implementation initiatives under the Investment Compact (the South East Europe Compact for Reform, Investment, Integrity and Growth) of the Stability Pact. This report of the Regulatory Governance Initiative provides an assessment on the progress of regulatory governance reforms in South East Europe (SEE), and the remaining reform challenges. It includes the Governance Action Plans developed by the SEE countries. Short-term reform priorities identified by the countries provide the basis for the Agenda for Regional Action, an overview of main governance reform trends in the SEE region and recommendations for the successful implementation of reforms. The report responds to the decision, taken by the Ministers from South East Europe (SEE) at the meeting in Vienna in July 2003, to place major emphasis on reviewing progress in the area of governance at their 2004 Ministerial meeting. It aims to inform policy-makers, donors, investors and the international community of progress in regulatory governance reforms in South East Europe. Practitioners in the region can draw on this report as a guide for their work in the future.

    Abstract: Las tendencias económicas recientes, que se reflejan en una mayor presión en términos económicos, la reforma del Estado benefactor, el surgimiento de la sociedad civil y la democracia participativa, han destacado la importancia creciente del sector sin fines de lucro en los países de la OCDE. Este sector, a menudo asociado con conceptos como “la economía social”, “el tercer sector”, “el sector de trabajo voluntario”, “el tercer sistema”, “el sector independiente” y, más recientemente, “la iniciativa empresarial social”, se ha enfrentado a una serie de retos cruciales. Entre ellos se encuentra el impulso para introducir criterios administrativos rigurosos, mientras que a la vez se mantiene la dimensión social única del sector y se fomenta la innovación social. Esta publicación ofrece una evaluación integral y transformadora de las nuevas tendencias en el ámbito de los estudios sobre el sector sin fines de lucro. Contiene contribuciones de expertos y académicos líderes en esta disciplina, y analiza los acontecimientos más significativos registrados en este sector en los países de la Unión Europea, Estados Unidos, Canadá, México y Australia. Asimismo, presenta un análisis comparativo y detallado de las herramientas y métodos empleados para financiar, supervisar y evaluar este sector de actividad económica y social. Este libro es una lectura fundamental para los diseñadores de políticas, practicantes en el sector y académicos interesados en conocer los más recientes acontecimientos teóricos y empíricos registrados en este sector en continua expansión.

    Abstract: This Test Guideline describes an acute toxicity test to assess effects of chemicals towards daphnids (usually Daphnia magna Staus). Young daphnids, aged less than 24 hours at the start of the test, are exposed to the test substance at a range of concentrations (at least five concentrations) for a period of 48 hours. Immobilisation is recorded at 24 hours and 48 hours and compared with control values. The results are analysed in order to calculate the EC50 at 48h. Determination of the EC50 at 24h is optional. At least 20 animals, preferably divided into four groups of five animals each, should be used at each test concentration and for the controls. At least 2 ml of test solution should be provided for each animal (i.e. a volume of 10 ml for five daphnids per test vessel). The limit test corresponds to one dose level of 100 mg/L. The study report should include the observation for immobilized daphnids at 24 and 48 hours after the beginning of the test and the measures of dissolved oxygen, pH, concentration of the test substance, at the beginning and end of the test.

    Abstract: Les accords bilatéraux et régionaux sur l'investissement se sont multipliés au cours des dix dernières années et de nouveaux accords sont actuellement négociés. Les accords sur l'investissement ont en commun leur clause de la nation la plus favorisée (NPF), qui garantit que les parties à un traité octroient un traitement non moins favorable que celui qu'elles accordent en vertu d'autres traités dans les secteurs visés par la clause. Les clauses NPF sont donc devenues un instrument significatif de la libéralisation économique en matière d'investissement. Qui plus est, la clause NPF, en accordant aux investisseurs de toutes les parties bénéficiaires, dans des circonstances similaires, un traitement non moins favorable que les partenaires les plus proches ou les plus influents d'un pays donné peuvent négocier dans des domaines couverts par la clause, permet d'éviter les distorsions économiques qu'entraînerait une libéralisation plus sélective, pays par pays.

Les produits chimiques sont retenus dans la colonne proportionnellement à leur coefficient de partage hydrocarbure-eau, les substances hydrophiles étant éluées les premières et les substances lipophiles les dernières. La méthode HPLC à phase inverse permet d’estimer les coefficients de partage dans une plage de log Poe allant de 0 à 6, mais cette plage peut être étendue de 6 à 10 dans certains cas exceptionnels. Le mode d'opération de la HPLC est isocratique. La substance d'essai est injectée dans les plus petites quantités discernables dans la colonne. Le temps de rétention est déterminé deux fois. Le coefficient de partage de la substance d'essai est obtenu par l'interpolation du facteur de capacité calculé sur le graphique de calibrage.

    Abstract: Deutschlands Wirtschaft hat viele Jahrzehnte lang ausgezeichnete Ergebnisse erzielt. Der Ordnungsrahmen und das Regulierungssystem des Landes zeichnen sich durch besondere historisch gewachsene Stärken aus, nämlich klare, wohl durchdachte wettbewerbsrechtliche und wettbewerbspolitische Strukturen sowie ein solides Fundament von Regulierungsinstrumenten. Es ist mithin nicht weiter verwunderlich, dass die Regulierungsqualität in einem der Rechtsstaatlichkeit verpflichteten Land wie Deutschland mit seiner traditionell bewährten Verwaltung eines der zentralen Ziele ist. Regulierungsreformen, die auf diesen traditionellen Stärken aufbauen, können die Funktionsweise der Märkte verbessern helfen. Die Bundesregierung hat in jüngster Zeit ein breites Spektrum von Reformen, darunter die „Agenda 2010", mit dem Ziel eingeleitet, die Beschäftigung zu erhöhen, die öffentlichen Ausgaben zu reduzieren und die mit der raschen demographischen Alterung verbundenen Probleme zu meistern. Neben Arbeitsmarktreformen steht die Einführung von mehr Wettbewerb auf wichtigen Produktmärkten, so z.B. im Einzelhandel und im Handwerk, auf dem Programm. Bei der Öffnung der Infrastrukturmärkte müssen ebenfalls noch erhebliche Fortschritte erzielt werden. Der vorliegende Bericht plädiert für eine Anpassung des traditionellen Ordnungsrahmens an die neuen Gegebenheiten, damit die erforderlichen Umstellungen zügiger, zu möglichst geringen Kosten für die Volkswirtschaft sowie unter Einbeziehung aller wichtigen Akteure realisiert werden können. Eine bessere Aufklärung über Reformziele und -nutzen wird dazu beitragen, die Dynamik des Reformprozesses aufrechtzuerhalten und die Akzeptanz in der Bevölkerung zu sichern. Deutschland hat ebenso wie viele andere OECD-Länder eine umfassende Prüfung seiner Regulierungspolitik und -reformen durch die OECD beantragt. Der vorliegende Bericht gibt unter Berücksichtigung des makroökonomischen Kontextes einen Überblick über Erfolge und Herausforderungen der Regulierungsreform, namentlich in den Bereichen Regulierungsqualität, Wettbewerbspolitik und Marktöffnung. Das besondere Augenmerk gilt dabei den Fortschritten bei der Regulierung der Strom-, Gas-, Pharmazeutik- und Telekommunikationsmärkte. In derselben Reihe sind erschienen (in Englisch und Französisch): Regulatory Reform in Canada Regulatory Reform in the Czech Republic Regulatory Reform in Denmark Regulatory Reform in Finland Regulatory Reform in France Regulatory Reform in Greece Regulatory Reform in Hungary Regulatory Reform in Ireland Regulatory Reform in Italy Regulatory Reform in Japan Regulatory Reform in Korea Regulatory Reform in Mexico Regulatory Reform in the Netherlands Regulatory Reform in Norway Regulatory Reform in Poland Regulatory Reform in Spain Regulatory Reform in Turkey Regulatory Reform in the United Kingdom Regulatory Reform in the United States Diese Prüfberichte knüpfen an den OECD Report on Regulatory Reform: Synthesis (1997) und den ergänzenden zweibändigen Bericht OECD Report on Regulatory Reform: Sectoral and Thematic Studies (1997) an.

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Examens de l'OCDE de la réforme de la réglementation : Japon 2004 : Progrès dans la mise en œuvre de la réforme de la réglementation
    Keywords: Governance ; Japan
    Abstract: Regulatory Reform in Japan was among the first in a series of in-depth country reviews on regulatory reform. Since 1999, when the review was published, the Japanese government has introduced a number of measures to enhance regulatory quality and to promote regulatory reform, competition policy and market openness. This publication assesses the progress made, identifies some of the lessons that can be learned about the implementation process and indicates what more can be done in light of current challenges. The monitoring exercise covers the core issues of capacity for regulatory quality, competition and market openness. This study updates information about competition policy in Japan, and such trade-related matters as internationally harmonised measures and conformity assessment processes. It calls attention to the linkages between regulatory policies and tools, and the application of competition and market-openness principles. Innovative efforts, such as the Special Zones initiative, also receive attention. The overall concern is how further progress on regulatory reform can enhance Japan’s growth potential. The report brings out many of the lessons of implementation, which take account of the specificities of the Japanese context, but can be of wider value in other countries as well. What began in the 1990s as an effort to remove regulatory barriers is gaining momentum. Regulatory reform is a dynamic process aimed at improving regulatory tools and institutions, reassessing existing regulations in light of current economic and social developments, and assessing the impact of new regulations while they are in preparation. These tasks call for a whole-of-government approach, which is one of the main challenges for Japan’s next three-year Programme for Regulatory Reform.

    Abstract: The business services examined in this study include software and information services, R&D and technical services, advertising and marketing, business consulting, recruitment and human resource development services. Digital delivery includes contracted out electronically mediated services supply (outsourcing) and digitally facilitated distributed work within firms, in which business services inputs are supplied electronically to support the business activities of firms. Digital delivery allows business services suppliers to combine richness and reach (i.e. to combine greater market reach with the ability to engage in richer interactions with clients). Business services activities are a significant and growing part of all OECD economies. Services are often dominated by small firms, although there are large players in most market segments. Demand for business services is strongly pro-cyclical. Innovation and high levels of competition counter market dynamics leading to concentration. Hence, new players emerge and there is considerable churn among market leaders.

    Series Statement: Les systèmes de financement des crédits à l'exportation dans les pays membres et les économies non membres de l'OCDE
    Keywords: Trade
    Abstract: Les financements sont indispensables au commerce international ; aussi les organismes de crédit à l'exportation bénéficiant d'un soutien public jouent-ils un rôle crucial en accordant, assurant et garantissant ces financements. Cette publication offre une description détaillée des systèmes de crédit à l'exportation bénéficiant d'un soutien public qui sont en vigueur dans les pays de l’OCDE et dans certaines économies non membres. A l’échelle internationale, la très grande majorité des crédits à l'exportation bénéficiant d'un soutien public est assurée par le biais de ces systèmes. Cette publication contient également la dernière version de l'Arrangement relatif aux lignes directrices pour les crédits à l'exportation bénéficiant d'un soutien public (le seul accord international à régir l'octroi de crédits à l'exportation bénéficiant d'un soutien public). Les règles de l'Arrangement portent notamment sur le soutien financier public, le délai maximum de remboursement, la prime minimum de risque et l'aide relative aux échanges pour les projets, les biens et les services bénéficiant de crédits à l'exportation d'une durée minimum de deux ans. Le texte de l'accord complémentaire qui prévoit des conditions souples pour les opérations de financement de projets figure également dans cet ouvrage. En outre, cette publication présente pour la première fois des informations sur les études importantes entreprises par le Groupe de travail de l'OCDE sur les crédits et garanties de crédit à l'exportation. Ces études concernent notamment les liens entre les crédits à l'exportation bénéficiant d'un soutien public et les préoccupations plus larges des gouvernements et de la société civile des pays membres, qu’il s’agisse de problèmes environnementaux, d’efforts pour combattre la corruption ou de la viabilité de la dette des pays pauvres très endettés. Dans ce contexte, la Recommandation de l’OCDE sur l’environnement et les crédits à l’exportation bénéficiant d’un soutien public, adoptée par le Conseil de l’OCDE fin 2003, est également incluse dans cette publication.

    Abstract: This study provides a review of the food and agricultural sector in Ukraine. It assesses the current status of the food and agricultural sector with special reference to the agricultural policy regime and the form and level of government support to the sector. The paper reviews the sector’s readiness to compete on open global markets for food and agricultural products. Given the importance and sensitivity of the food and agriculture sector in the country, the report highlights a number of critical issues for the Ukrainian government to address. The report goes beyond the narrower focus of the agricultural policies and reviews the status of current rural physical and social infrastructure and issues of rural poverty. The Executive Summary highlights policy recommendations for Ukrainian policymakers, while the individual chapters provide technical analysis on key policy issues.

    Abstract: Dans de nombreux pays de l'OCDE, les zones métropolitaines sont morcelées en diverses unités territoriales qui ne correspondent pas à la zone géographique plus large où se posent les problèmes économiques et sociaux. Si le déséquilibre qui en découle n'est pas un phénomène nouveau, le morcellement apparaît de plus en plus comme une des causes majeures des dysfonctionnements des grandes villes comme les disparités fiscales internes, l’étalement urbain et la polarisation spatiale qui constituent à leur tour un obstacle à la compétitivité. Ce rapport examine le cas de la région métropolitaine de Montréal qui a connu l'une des plus audacieuses réformes institutionnelles parmi les pays de l'OCDE. D'un côté, on a procédé à des fusions de municipalités pour créer deux nouvelles villes : Montréal et Longueuil. De l'autre, la grande région économique fonctionnelle s'est dotée d'une nouvelle structure, la Communauté métropolitaine de Montréal, représentant 63 municipalités. Ces réformes institutionnelles constituent une occasion appréciable de relever le défi de la compétitivité de Montréal. Certains aspects du nouveau cadre de gouvernance métropolitaine demandent cependant à être consolidés, en particulier en ce qui concerne la clarification des compétences, des responsabilités et des ressources fiscales. La rationalisation des structures institutionnelles et des ressources fiscales ne sera toutefois pas suffisante. La mise en œuvre, et pas seulement l’élaboration, d’une stratégie économique globale pour toute la région métropolitaine constituera pour Montréal le principal défi à relever dans les années à venir. L’Examen Territorial de Montréal s’inscrit dans un programme plus vaste d’examens territoriaux nationaux et thématiques, menés par le Comité des Politiques de Développement Territorial de l’OCDE. L’objectif général des examens territoriaux est de fournir des recommandations pratiques aux gouvernements dans trois domaines: la gouvernance à plusieurs niveaux, le développement durable aux échelons régional et local, et les réseaux régionaux au service de la compétitivité.

    Abstract: Cette méthode d’essai a été conçue pour fournir des informations sur l'absorption d'une substance d'essai (idéalement radiomarquée) appliquée à la surface d'un échantillon de peau séparant les deux compartiments (un compartiment donneur et un compartiment receveur) d'une cellule à diffusion. Des cellules à diffusion statique ou dynamique peuvent indifféremment être utilisées. Les peaux d’humain ou d’animaux peuvent être employées. Bien qu’une peau viable soit préférée, une peau non viable peut également être employée. Il a été démontré que la peau peut métaboliser certains produits chimiques pendant l'absorption cutanée. Dans ce cas, les métabolites du produit chimique d'essai peuvent être analysés par des méthodes appropriées. Normalement, plusieurs concentrations de la substance d’essai sont utilisées dans les formulations types, de façon à couvrir une gamme réaliste d’expositions humaines potentielles. L’application devrait simuler l'exposition humaine, normalement 1-5 mg/cm2 de peau pour un solide et jusqu'à 10 µl/cm2 pour des liquides. La température doit être constante parce qu’elle influe sur la diffusion passive des produits chimiques. L'absorption d'une substance d'essai au cours d'une période donnée (normalement 24h) est mesurée par l'analyse du fluide récepteur et la distribution de la substance d'essai dans le système d'essai. Le profil d'absorption en fonction du temps devrait être présenté.

    Abstract: The General Framework Agreement for Peace in Bosnia and Herzegovina (GFAP), popularly known as the Dayton Peace Agreement (DPA) since it was negotiated and initialed at a U.S. Air Force base in Dayton, Ohio, defined Bosnia and Herzegovina as a state consisting of two entities, the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FBiH) and the Republika Srpska (RS). In accordance with international law, Bosnia and Herzegovina continued the legal existence of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina, with its internal structure modified, but within the existing, internationally recognised, borders. The Federation covers 51 per cent of the state territory, that is, 26 110 sq km. Geographically, the Federation occupies central and western parts of Bosnia and Herzegovina, although the two entities are intertwined, which makes it difficult to attach to them geographical designations. Moreover, according to the DPA, the entities do not have jurisdiction over border control. The last official census took place in 1991, but the Federation Bureau of Statistics published on 30 June 2003 an official estimate of population figures. According to the Bureau, in summer 2003 the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina had 2 839 215 inhabitants, of which 2 321 058 actually resided in the Federation. The remaining 518 157 persons were categorized as refugees.

    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: This Test Guideline describes a method to evaluate photo-cytotoxicity by the relative reduction in viability of cells exposed to the chemical in the presence versus absence of light. Balb/c 3T3 cells are maintained in culture for 24 h for formation of monolayers. Two 96-well plates are pre-incubated with eight different concentrations of the test substance for 1 h. Thereafter one of the two plates is exposed to the highest non-cytotoxic irradiation dose whereas the other plate is kept in the dark. Cytotoxicity in this test is expressed as a concentration-dependent reduction of the uptake of the Vital dye Neutral Red (NR) when measured 24 hours after treatment with the test chemical and irradiation. NR penetrates cell membranes by non-diffusion, accumulating in lysosomes. Alterations of the cell surface of the sensitive lysosomal membrane lead to lysosomal fragility and other changes that gradually become irreversible. Such changes result in a decreased uptake and binding of NR. It is thus possible to distinguish between viable, damaged or dead cells. To predict the phototoxic potential, the concentration responses obtained in the presence and in the absence of irradiation are compared, usually at the IC50 level, i.e., the concentration reducing cell viability to 50 % compared to the untreated controls.

    Abstract: This Test Guideline is designed to be used for assessing the effects of chemicals on the reproductive output of the enchytraeid worm, Enchytraeus albidus Henle 1873, in soil. Adult enchytraeid worms are exposed to a range of concentrations of the test substance mixed into an artificial soil. Ten worms are randomly allocated to each test vessel. A range-finding test should be used, for two weeks, in case of no sufficient information. The duration of the definitive test is six weeks. At the end the total number of juveniles produced by parent animal and the survival of parent animals are assessed. The limit test corresponds to one dose level of 1000 mg/kg. The study report should include the adult morphological changes, the number of offspring. The reproductive output of the animals exposed to the test substance is compared to that of the control(s) in order to determine the no observed effect concentration (NOEC) and/or ECx by using a regression model to estimate the concentration that would cause a x % reduction in reproductive output. The test concentrations should bracket the ECx so that the ECx then comes from interpolation rather than extrapolation.

    Abstract: In its present borders, Bosnia-Herzegovina was created on 25 November 1943 at a session of Tito’s Communist Party, the winning party after the Second World War. After the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia was created in 1945, Bosnia-Herzegovina existed as one of its six republics for nearly 50 years. In the early 1990s, the events in former Yugoslavia and consequently in Bosnia-Herzegovina started to multiply at a dramatic speed. After the referendum, which was boycotted by the majority of the Bosnian Serbs and endorsed by Bosniaks and the Bosnian Croats, Bosnia-Herzegovina declared independence on 1 March 1992, but the existence of the newly proclaimed state was short – the war started the following month. The beginning of the war in Bosnia-Herzegovina saw two sides at war with each other: on one side were Bosnian Croats and Bosniaks and on the other Bosnian Serbs. However, throughout 1993, Bosnian Croats and Bosniaks fought also heavily with each other. In March 1994, under U.S. pressure, fighting between Bosniaks and Croats ended, with the two sides agreeing to establish a federation on the territory they controlled (the ‘Washington Agreement’). They then joined forces against the Bosnian Serbs who lost ground to the offensive and endured NATO strikes in August 1995.

    Abstract: Die OECD-Länder messen dem lebenslangen Lernen und der aktiven Beschäftigungspolitik als Instrumente zur Förderung von Wirtschaftswachstum und sozialer Gerechtigkeit zunehmende Bedeutung bei. Effektive Informations- und Beratungssysteme sind wesentliche Grundlagen für die Umsetzung dieser Maßnahmen, und alle Bürger müssen sich die notwendigen Kompetenzen aneignen, um ihre eigene berufliche Laufbahn steuern zu können. Zwischen diesen Politikzielen und den Kapazitäten der nationalen Bildungs- und Berufsberatungssysteme besteht aber noch eine große Kluft. So ist der Zugang zu Bildungs- und Berufsberatungsdiensten, vor allem für Erwachsene, begrenzt. Statt ihren Kunden die Fähigkeit zu vermitteln, ihre berufliche Entwicklung selbst in die Hand zu nehmen, konzentrieren sich die Beratungsstellen zu oft auf gerade anstehende Fragen und Entscheidungen. Ferner sind die Ausbildungs- und Qualifikationssysteme für die Anbieter der Beratungsdienste häufig unzureichend und unangemessen. Die Koordinierung zwischen den wichtigsten Ministerien und den übrigen Beteiligten lässt viel zu wünschen übrig. Die politischen Entscheidungsträger verfügen nicht über hinreichende Daten- und Erfahrungsgrundlagen, um die Bildungs- und Berufsberatungsdienste sachgerecht steuern zu können, wobei es an Daten sowohl zu Kosten und Nutzen als auch zu Kundenmerkmalen und Ergebnissen mangelt. Und was das konkrete Angebot an Beratungsdiensten betrifft, so wird zu wenig Gebrauch gemacht von Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien (IKT) und anderen kosteneffektiven Mitteln, um flexibler auf die Kundenbedürfnisse eingehen zu können. Ausgehend von einer in 14 OECD-Ländern durchgeführten Prüfung wird in dieser Veröffentlichung untersucht, wie die Kluft zwischen Bildungs- und Berufsberatungsdiensten einerseits und öffentlicher Politik andererseits verringert werden könnte. Es wird dafür plädiert, die Koordinierung auf nationaler Ebene zu verbessern und sich verstärkt um Forschung und Datenerfassung zu bemühen, um die politischen Entscheidungsträger mit hinreichenden Informationen versorgen zu können. In dem Bericht werden ferner bessere, fachspezifischere Ausbildungsprogramme für die Praktiker der Bildungs- und Berufsberatung sowie die Einrichtung stärker spezialisierter Einrichtungen für Bildungs- und Berufsberatungsdienste empfohlen.

    Abstract: Pour faire face au vieillissement rapide de la population, il est nécessaire de promouvoir de meilleures opportunités d'emploi pour les travailleurs âgés. On a déjà beaucoup fait état du besoin de réformer les régimes de pension de retraite et de préretraite. Pourtant, cela ne sera sans doute pas suffisant en soi pour relever significativement les taux d'emploi des plus âgés ni pour réduire le risque futur de pénurie de travailleurs. Les autorités publiques et les entreprises doivent sans tarder prendre des mesures pour adapter la fixation des salaires à une main-d'œuvre plus âgée, pour s'attaquer aux discriminations du fait de l'âge et pour améliorer les qualifications et les conditions de travail des travailleurs âgés. En outre, les travailleurs âgés devront changer d’attitude quant à la poursuite de leur activité et à l'acquisition de nouvelles compétences. On sait relativement peu de choses sur ce que les différents pays de l'OCDE sont en train de faire ou devraient faire dans ces domaines. Afin d'y remédier, l'OCDE a lancé une série de rapports dans une vingtaine de pays. Le rapport sur le Luxembourg est le cinquième de cette série, après ceux consacrés à la Suède, à la Belgique, à la Suisse et à l'Espagne. Chaque rapport national fait le tour des principales barrières qui restreignent l'emploi des travailleurs âgés et évalue la pertinence et l'efficacité des mesures existantes pour contrer ces barrières. Enfin, chaque ouvrage présente une série de recommandations sur les politiques que les autorités publiques et les partenaires sociaux devraient mener. Ce rapport, basé sur les actes d'un séminaire, est publié uniquement en français. Cependant, on trouvera dans ce volume la version anglaise du résumé et des principales recommandations.

    Abstract: This review of Spain’s environmental performance takes stock of Spain’s environmental performance since the last review done in 1997. It finds that despite substantial increases in GDP, tourism, construction, population density in coastal areas, and road freight transport, progress has been made in decoupling some environmental pressures from economic growth and in developing environmental infrastructure. Nevertheless, Spain faces important challenges related to high energy intensity, high water use intensity, and increasing CO2 emissions and municipal waste. This report makes 46 recommendations to help strengthen Spain’s environmental performance in the context of sustainable development.

    Abstract: This paper focuses primarily on the issue of how to achieve high quality in the audit process. In addition to describing the types of procedures needed to achieve quality, however, it discusses basic principles and those matters of institutional management that create an environment that encourages high quality in an SAI’s work. Audit quality is obtained by a process of identifying and administering the activities needed to achieve the quality objectives of an SAI. All types of SAIs need to understand the benefits that can be realised once audit quality is made a top priority. Improving audit quality requires a systematic SAI-wide approach. Piecemeal efforts by individuals and individual audit teams are not enough and will not work. There are no quick fixes to be obtained where audit quality is concerned. SAIs need to proceed methodically in an organised way to fix each quality issue and problem in turn. As new problems will always emerge, this should be a continuous process for the SAI. It is also evident that most audit quality-related problems are mainly the result of poor management of the audit process or of the SAI itself. Ensuring high levels of quality in an audit organisation involves a succession of detailed steps that must be taken over a period of time. In fact, it is a never-ending process of continual improvement. The first requirement is to define the standards of quality and then to put quality control procedures in place that will ensure that these standards are met. These procedures need not – and should not – suppress the initiative and good judgement of the auditor in adapting to particular circumstances. However, if the auditor judges that it is necessary to depart from the usual audit techniques, it is incumbent upon the auditor to demonstrate the necessity of doing so, and to show that the approach he or she has chosen is capable of satisfying the audit objectives.

    Abstract: This Test Guideline is designed to assess the effects of prolonged exposure of chemicals to the sediment-dwelling larvae of the freshwater dipteran Chironomus sp. First instar chironomid larvae are exposed to at least five concentrations of the test chemical in sediment - water systems. The test substance is spiked into the sediment and first instar larvae are subsequently introduced into test beakers in which the sediment and water concentrations have been stabilised. Chironomid emergence and development rate is measured at the end of the test. The maximum exposure duration is 28 days for C. riparius, C. yoshimatsui, and 65 days for C. tentans. The limit test corresponds to one dose level of 1000 mg/kg. Larval survival and weight may also be measured after 10 days if required (using additional replicates as appropriate). The study report should include the development time and the total number of fully emerged midges (sex and number are recorded daily), the observation of any abnormal behaviour the number of visible pupae that have failed to emerge and any egg masses deposition. The data are analysed either by using a regression model in order to estimate the concentration that would cause x % reduction in emergence or larval survival or growth, or by using statistical hypothesis testing to determine a NOEC/LOEC.

    Abstract: Information and communication technology (ICT) connectivity (PCs and Internet) is very widespread in businesses of all sizes. As is the case with all technologies, small businesses are slower than large ones to adopt new ICTs. Commercial considerations and potential returns are the principal drivers of small business adoption and profitable use. Principal reasons for non-adoption are lack of applicability and little incentive to change business models when returns are unclear. SMEs also face generic barriers to adoption including trust and transaction security and IPR concerns, and challenges in areas of management skills, technological capabilities, productivity and competitiveness.

    Abstract: Les moyens de connexion (PC et Internet) aux technologies de l’information et des communications (TIC) sont très largement répandus dans les entreprises de toutes tailles. Comme c’est le cas pour toutes les technologies, les petites entreprises adoptent les nouvelles TIC moins rapidement que les grandes. Les considérations commerciales et les résultats attendus sont les principaux facteurs qui déterminent l’adoption et l’utilisation profitable des TIC par les petites entreprises. Les principales raisons pour ne pas franchir le pas sont l’absence de possibilités d’exploitation et le peu de motivation à changer de mode de fonctionnement lorsque les avantages escomptés ne sont pas évidents.

    Abstract: Los Estudios Económicos que la Organización para la Cooperación y el Desarrollo Económicos (OCDE) elabora sobre sus países miembros son evaluaciones comprehensivas de sus circunstancias económicas y propuestas rigurosas de política para consolidar, corregir o poner en práctica soluciones en favor de un desarrollo económico real y perdurable. Los Estudios Económicos se preparan con base en los reportes que realiza el Secretariado de la OCDE para el examen que periódicamente lleva a cabo el Comité de Seguimiento al Desarrollo Económico para cada país. El Estudio Económico de México 2003 presenta una interesante radiografía de la economía mexicana, acompañada de una serie de propuestas de gran relevancia tanto para los estudiosos del tema, como para los diseñadores de políticas en México. En general, la OCDE afirma que la economía mexicana se encuentra "bien posicionada para retomar el rumbo de crecimiento sólido y sostenible, aunque el momento y la fortaleza de la recuperación dependerán en gran medida de factores externos fuera del control de los diseñadores de políticas" y sugiere que "aun si las condiciones macroeconómicas se muestran desfavorables, las autoridades necesitan continuar esforzándose por lograr los objetivos anunciados en términos de inflación y presupuesto, si se desea conservar la confianza". Este estudio contiene además un capítulo sobre las fuentes del crecimiento de la economía mexicana, un capítulo enfocado a las reformas estructurales y una sección en donde se abordan los efectos económicos de la migración en México.

    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: Cette Ligne directrice décrit une méthode pour évaluer la photo-cytotoxicité par la réduction relative de la viabilité des cellules exposées au produit chimique en présence ou en absence de la lumière. Des cellules de Balb/c 3T3 sont maintenues en culture pendant 24 h jusqu’à la formation de monocouches. Deux plaques de 96 puits sont préincubés avec huit concentrations différentes de la substance d'essai pendant 1 h. Ensuite, l’une des deux plaques est exposée à la dose d'irradiation non-cytotoxique la plus élevée tandis que l'autre plaque est maintenue dans l'obscurité. La cytotoxicité, dans cet essai, est exprimée comme la diminution, dépendante de la concentration, de l’absorption et de la fixation du colorant vital rouge neutre (NR) 24 heures après traitement avec le produit chimique et l'irradiation. NR pénètre les membranes cellulaires par non-diffusion, en s'accumulant dans les lysosomes. L’altération de la surface cellulaire de la membrane lysosomale sensible entraine une fragilité lysosomale et d'autres changements qui deviennent graduellement irréversibles. Ceci entraîne une diminution de la fixation du rouge neutre. Il est ainsi possible de distinguer les cellules viables, endommagées ou mortes. Pour prévoir le potentiel phototoxique, les réponses de concentration obtenues en présence et en l'absence d'irradiation sont comparées, habituellement au niveau de l’CE50, c.-à-d., à la concentration ramenant la viabilité des cellules à 50 %, par rapport aux contrôles non traités.

    Keywords: Science and Technology ; Economics
    Abstract: Die in den neunziger Jahren und auch noch zu Beginn dieses Jahrzehnts beobachteten Wachstumsmuster haben die früheren Theorien auf den Kopf gestellt. Während des größten Teils der Nachkriegszeit wurde in den OECD-Ländern mit vergleichsweise geringem Pro-Kopf-BIP ein stärkeres Wirtschaftswachstum verzeichnet als in den reicheren Ländern. In den neunziger Jahren wurde diese scheinbare Gesetzmäßigkeit dann aber durchbrochen. Namentlich die Vereinigten Staaten, deren Pro-Kopf-BIP im Vergleich zu den anderen großen Volkswirtschaften bereits relativ hoch war, konnten ihren Vorsprung ab Mitte der neunziger Jahre weiter vergrößern. Die Wirtschaftsleistung der meisten kontinentaleuropäischen Länder ist demgegenüber nach wie vor schwach, und die japanische Wirtschaft stagniert weiterhin. Wo liegen die Hauptursachen für die Wachstumsunterschiede innerhalb der OECD? Bis zu welchem Grad sind sie auf neue Technologien und FuE zurückzuführen? Welche Rolle spielt die makroökonomische Politik? Wie wichtig sind Aus- und Weiterbildung? Welchen Einfluss haben Arbeitslosigkeit, Arbeitsmarktflexibilität und Produktmarktwettbewerb? Führen Startups dem Markt Kapital und neue Ideen zu? Welche Bedeutung haben die Hemmnisse für Unternehmensgründungen und ‑aufgaben? Die vorliegende Veröffentlichung gibt einen umfassenden Überblick über diese Fragen und liefert neue Erkenntnisse über die Antriebskräfte des Wirtschaftswachstums in den OECD-Ländern.

    Abstract: A well-functioning government office acts as a co-ordinator of the decision-making system and as such is crucial for the government’s capacity to define and pursue its collective objectives. The “Government Office” is a generic term that refers to the institution(s) at the centre of government responsible for supporting the Prime Minister and serving the Council of Ministers as a collective decision-making body. This paper describes and analyses the functions and organisation of government offices in a comparative context, covering OECD member countries, central and eastern European countries (CEECs), and countries of the Western Balkans (ex-Yugoslavia and Albania). The analysis is based on information gathered by Sigma and GOV (PUMA)1 since the mid 1990’s, supplemented by results of a written questionnaire administered by Sigma and GOV in 2003.

    Abstract: Le système de financement particulier adopté par la Nouvelle-Zélande accorde une grande autonomie aux établissements d’enseignement publics en matière de gestion de leurs actifs par rapport à ce qui se passe dans la plupart des autres pays. Les écoles peuvent prétendre à un budget prédéterminé qui leur est versé par les trois « sources » de la structure de financement des actifs des établissements d’enseignement. Le recours original du gouvernement à la méthode de la comptabilité d’exercice, associé à un nouvel accord sur les Plans quinquennaux de gestion des actifs, permet aux établissements de connaître avec une grande précision le montant du financement des actifs dont ils disposent. En outre, ces derniers jouissent d’une grande autonomie dans la prise de décision concernant la modernisation de leurs bâtiments.

    Keywords: Education
    Abstract: This report presents the first internationally comparable results to OECD's 2003 Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) Survey of the educational performance of 15-year-olds in reading, mathematics, and science in 25 OECD countries. This year, the concentration was on mathematics. Beyond the examination of the relative standing of countries in mathematics, science and reading, the report also looks at a wider range of educational outcomes that include students’ motivation to learn, their beliefs about themselves, and their learning strategies. Furthermore, it examines how performance varies between the genders and between socio-economic groups; and it provides insights into some of the factors that influence the development of knowledge and skills at home and at school, how these factors interact and what the implications are for policy development. Most importantly, the report sheds light on countries that succeed in achieving high performance standards while, at the same time, providing an equitable distribution of learning opportunities. The report presents a wealth of indicators showing how countries compare in various measures of educational performance and factors that affect that performance.

    Abstract: The obligation to provide “fair and equitable treatment” is often stated, together with other standards, as part of the protection due to foreign direct investment by host countries. It is an “absolute”, “non-contingent” standard of treatment, i.e. a standard that states the treatment to be accorded in terms whose exact meaning has to be determined, by reference to specific circumstances of application, as opposed to the “relative” standards embodied in “national treatment” and “most favoured nation” principles which define the required treatment by reference to the treatment accorded to other investment1. Although some references to the standard can be found in the first negotiating attempts of multilateral trade and investment instruments, it became established as a principle mainly through the increasing network of bilateral investment treaties. The obligation of the parties to investment agreements to provide to each other’s investments “fair and equitable treatment” ...

    Keywords: Governance ; United States
    Abstract: Les États-Unis ont été le premier pays à mettre hors la loi les actes de corruption d’agents publics étrangers dans les transactions commerciales commis par leurs ressortissants et par les sociétés relevant de leur droit grâce à l’adoption du Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) de 1977. Vingt ans plus tard, les États-Unis ont signé, en compagnie de trente-quatre autres pays, la Convention sur la lutte contre la corruption d’agents publics étrangers dans les transactions commerciales internationales (la Convention de l’OCDE sur la lutte contre la corruption). Le Congrès des États-Unis a réagi à la signature de la Convention en amendant le FCPA en octobre 1998. Par la suite, les États-Unis ont ratifié la Convention de l’OCDE et déposé leur instrument de ratification auprès de l’OCDE à la fin de 1998. Sont étudiées dans ce rapport les dispositions juridiques et les institutions en place aux États-Unis pour combattre la corruption d'agents publics étrangers et mesurer l'efficacité de ce dispositif. On y examine les mécanismes introduits tant au sein des administrations publiques que dans le secteur privé pour prévenir et détecter des faits de corruption d'agents publics étrangers. Ce rapport traite aussi de l'efficacité des mécanismes d’enquête et de poursuite de l’infraction de corruption étrangère et des infractions connexes notamment en matière de fraude et de blanchiment d'argent. Le rapport se termine avec des recommandations spécifiques, aussi bien en ce qui concerne la prévention et la détection que les poursuites et les sanctions appliquées en pratique. On y trouvera également les prescriptions juridiques essentielles destinées à dissuader, prévenir et combattre la corruption telles qu’elles ont été communiquées par les États-Unis lors du processus d’examen. L’examen de la mise en œuvre par les États-Unis des dispositions anti-corruption de l’OCDE entre dans le cadre d’un mandat plus large du Groupe de travail de l’OCDE sur la corruption dans le cadre de transactions commerciales internationales. Ce groupe est chargé d’une surveillance et d’un suivi systématiques et détaillés de l’ensemble des pays signataires de la Convention de l’OCDE sur la lutte contre la corruption étrangère. Jusqu’ici, le Groupe de travail a examiné l’application et la mise en œuvre de la Convention en Bulgarie, en Finlande, en Allemagne, en Islande et aux États-Unis. D’ici 2007, les examens des 30 autres pays seront réalisés.
