Prefects between 1947 and 1958 : the Limits of the Administrative Republic.
Although the prefectural establishment seemed to gain power during the Fourth
Republic, a sociological approach shows this to be only in appearance. In fact, two
changes took place. First, the model linked to the Third Republic of the prefect as a
“notable”, disappeared : prefects came mainly from the middle classes and as a result the
prefectural body didn't have the social profile of the state's “grands corps”. Secondly, the
corporatising of the prefectural establishment was not a success. Although it was better
organised, it could not be a symbol of administrative power when faced with weak or
unstable governments. Thus, so far as the prefecture is concerned, the Fourth Republic
was not the continuation of the Third, and did not make it possible for administrative
power to make up for deficiencies in political power. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
