Anne BOIGEOL - The changing modes of entry into the magistrature : from social necessity to professional virtues

Pouvoirs n°74 - Les juges - septembre 1995 - p.28-41

In an attempt to fight against the drop in status which has affected the magistrature since the beginning of the twentieth century, the modes of entry into the profession have been rationalized to take into account scholarly achievements, following the procedure adopted for the civil service and moving away from the tradition of the bar. The latter will eventually be affected by a similar procedure. The magistrature should gain in professional virtues but will be confronted with the dominant position occupied by the École nationale d’administration. Résumé
