abstract="After twenty years of civil war in Angola, and following the country's devastation, transition to a market economy and democracy has finally begun. The end of the war has prompted individual expectations of a real income rise. Within this context, the paper sets out to analyse the willingness of civil servants to help pay (wtp) for consolidation of a public good - peace - in Angola and to calculate the extent to which they are willing to accept (wta)  government compensation should it fail to assure this public good. The model used is based on a subjective expected utility function and the sample is taken from high-ranking public administration staff. Results obtained permit one to determine and to interpret wtp and wta by age, sex, hierarchical position, income and number of military conscripts per family.<p />",
