Some of the measures in the civil service reform programme interfaced with either the political transition process (for example, the Public Service Act) or with economic policy reform (for example, privatization). In a few other cases, it was a mixture, a political economy perspective (for example, curbing corruption). The article draws attention to the achievements and problems of implementation, including the coordination of donor support, and highlights the lessons learned and the prospects for the remaining years of the decade and beyond. - Reproduced  aCivil service - Malawi  aEconomic liberalization - Malawi  aAdministrative reform - Malawi  aAdministrative reform  aLaleye, Mouftaou  aKulemeka, Noel  aPublic Administration and Development  a34638  c34638d34638  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 17, Issue no: 2pAR34871r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
