    This is undoubtedly the author's most important work, of which he published only three, in which he summarizes both his thoughts and convictions: *Examination of Mr. Rossi's Treatise on Criminal Law* (Paris, 1856), *On Decentralization and its Effects* (Paris, 1861), and *On Judicial Organization in France* (Paris, 1872). The latter, the most significant, is a paper "presented to the Academy of Moral and Political Sciences and appearing in several issues of the *Proceedings and Works of this institution*, before being published in the form" we present here. Particularly inspired by the British system, Odilon-Barrot proposes here a generalization of the "jury." He criticizes in our system both the dual jurisdiction and the existence of administrative courts too subject to government influence. O. Barrot. He is a paradoxical figure: appointed Vice-President of the Council of State in 1872, he was among those who organized the modernization of this institution after the Second Empire. Yet, in this book published the previous year, he stated (p. 146): "In my plan, all administrative litigation involving the prefectural councils and the Council of State would disappear." This text is extremely rare.
