Annotation This book contains an account of the 2,352 families (close to 3,000 counting cadet lines) that had one member sit in either House of the English, British, or United Kingdom Parliament, the Irish Parliament, or the Scottish Parliament between 1660 and 1945 and was represented in one of these Parliaments by at least three members at any time between the Middle Ages and 2015. Nearly 20,000 individuals are included in the main listings. Information is provided about social origins, ownership of country houses, wealth, honors, offices held, and links with associated families. The list provides a comprehensive reference source for the governing class of Great Britain and Ireland from Oliver Cromwell to Winston Churchill, and offers a deep pool of data to support analysis of social, political, economic, and cultural history in the British Isles over the course of more than four centuries. The British and Irish ruling class was a political, social, and economic elite. It constituted a hereditary landed aristocracy, constantly renewed and expanded by commercial and manufacturing wealth, that dominated government into the nineteenth century, remained potent in the twentieth century, and helped shape the modern world.

Où est passé le peuple parisien ? Depuis plusieurs décennies, la capitale connaît un processus de gentrification, un embourgeoisement spécifique des quartiers populaires qui passe par la transformation matérielle de la ville (réhabilitation de l'habitat, renouvellement des commerces, embellissement de l'espace public). Que se passe-t-il vraiment et qu'y a-t-il en jeu dans ces transformations à la fois urbaines et sociales ? Voilà qui est le plus souvent laissé dans le flou et présenté comme une évolution « naturelle » des villes. Ce livre vient éclairer ce processus et permet d'approfondir la connaissance de Paris et de son évolution récente. Il montre que cette transformation est autre chose qu'une simple amélioration du bâti, de l'espace public ou des commerces, et révèle à qui elle profite et qui elle dépossède. Un livre essentiel pour permettre aux lecteurs, Parisiens ou non, de s'approprier les enjeux sociaux et politiques de l'évolution de la ville.
