Georges Laguerre, un Bel-Ami en politique (1858-1912)

Preface by Jean-Marc Guislin

Histoire et civilisations

Emerging on a few rare occasions from the depths of national history, his name, long forgotten by all, would lead one to think that the man had passed through history in the deepest anonymity. However, during his lifetime, Georges Laguerre (1858-1912) enjoyed real notoriety, both politically and professionally. A young prodigy at the Paris bar, he became France's youngest deputy at the age of 25 and was promised a glorious political future. "The Prince of Paris" as some people liked to call him, could already see himself rising to the highest offices of the State. Nevertheless, “if nature had provided him with precious gifts, man, by faults easily avoided, would have destroyed them and, by the same token, refused his destiny” (Maurice Barrès). Does his career, as intense as it was short-lived, and largely disrupted by his Boulangist convictions, not symbolise the abyss that separates the “statesman” from the mere 'professional' in politics?

Espaces politiques
Faced with tensions between the State and the local government representatives on the one hand, and in the light of the forcoming municipal elections on the other, this book about the former Lille Mayor and Prime Minister Pierre Maury is more than ever in the news.

Architecture et urbanisme
From 1940 till the end of the Second World War, the Nord Pas-de-Calais region faced numerous waves of destruction. Reconstructing the area presented itself as a difficult process and complicated an already problematic situation, for indeed, as early as 1939, some Northern cities were already in desperate need of modernization.
