Meeting British lawyers and participating in a comparative reflection on our legal systems has for me a history that goes back to 1966. In 1966 I participated, in London, in the first meeting of British and French administrative lawyers. Among the participants were Nicole Questiaux and Neville Brown; there was also the late President Letourneur, who was a forerunner in the development of the relations of French Administrative lawyers with British lawyers, at a time where these relations were very far from being as extensive as they are today. If I look back to this long period, I think that important progress has been made towards a better mutual understanding of our legal systems. My concern in this paper is with the dynamics and direction of the interactions which the Conseil d'État has had with other legal systems.
