This book provides a comprehensive assessment of the motivation behind corruption and ill-governance in countries, such as India.

En Belgique, les spécificités sociales, culturelles et politiques du patronat n'ont pas encore fait l'objet d'une véritable synthèse historique. Cet ouvrage, consacré aux banquiers en activité entre 1830 et 1935, est une première tentative de réponse à ce vide historiographique. En tentant de discerner les caractéristiques communes de l'échelon supérieur du monde capitaliste que sont les banquiers, c'est le profil cohérent et nuancé d'un groupe d'élite qui prend forme. Les particularités de ce groupe seront soulignées et intégrées dans une approche quantitative et comparative qui les confrontera à celles de couches supérieures du monde capitaliste d'autres pays européens, et en priorité avec celles des banquiers d'Angleterre et de France. Cette démarche comparative mettra ainsi en exergue le modèle spécifique de banquier généré par le système de banque mixte en vigueur en Belgique. Mais elle nous interrogera aussi, dans un second temps, sur l'originalité des milieux d'élite belges (au sens large) en regard des autres modèles européens.
