Text in French. "Pas une ligne de la Constitution française ne les mentionne et pourtant les « collaborateurs de l'ombre » - de moins en moins discrets - qui entourent nos dirigeants politiques n'ont cessé de prospérer au fil des régimes au point que notre Ve République hyper-présidentielle est devenue une République de conseillers. Rien ne s'accomplit sans ou contre eux. Quel paradoxe qu'aucun ouvrage savant ne leur ait été consacré depuis plus de trente ans ! Loin des polémiques et des caricatures ce livre répare l'oubli. Il réunit une équipe d'historiens politistes juristes sociologues et anthropologues dont maints spécialistes étrangers ainsi que d'anciens membres de cabinets. Des « créatures » du roi comme les désignait le Grand Siècle aux dir' cab' et jeunes entourages des présidents Sarkozy et Hollande en passant par la « cabinetocratie » bruxelloise et les conseillers de la Maison-Blanche il montre la généralisation du phénomène à tous les échelons du pouvoir dans les démocraties contemporaines. Érudit autant que savoureux cet ouvrage ouvre des pistes de réflexion pour enrichir le débat sur le rôle et l'influence des conseillers du Prince." = Not a line of the French Constitution mentions them and yet the "shadowy collaborators" - less and less discreet - who surround our political leaders have continued to prosper over the regimes to the point that our Fifth Republic -residential has become a Republic of advisers. Nothing is accomplished without or against them. What a paradox that no scholarly work has been devoted to them for more than thirty years! Far from polemics and caricatures this book repairs forgetfulness. It brings together a team of historians politicians jurists sociologists and anthropologists including many foreign specialists as well as former cabinet members. From the King's "creatures" as the Grand Siecle designated them to the dir 'cabs and young entourages of Presidents Sarkozy and Hollande through the Brussels "cabinetocracy" and the White House advisers he shows the generalization of Phenomenon at all levels of power in contemporary democracies. Both scholarly and tasty this book opens up avenues for reflection to enrich the debate on the role and influence of the Prince's advisers. Presses de Sciences Po paperback books
