Jacques CHEVALLIER - The political and administrative élite: a contested interpenetration

Pouvoirs n°80 - L’ENA - janvier 1997 - p.89-100

Since 1958 an irresistible movement has led to the constitution of a closelyknit political and administrative elite, through a two-sided process whereby higher civil servants enter the political arene and the higher civil service becomes increasingly politicized. If the accumulation of so much power in a single group is increasingly being critized, it seems difficult to envisage going back to the previous situation. Résumé
