Les concessions funeraires is a concise French monograph by Damien Dutrieux, first issued in 2003 by Mb Formation. Spanning just 71 pages, the book offers a focused exploration of the legal and cultural practices surrounding funeral concessions in contemporary France. Drawing on statutes, case law, and interviews with funeral directors, Dutrieux examines how municipalities regulate the use of burial plots, the rights of families, and the economic implications of cemetery management. The text is written in clear, accessible prose, making it suitable for students of law, public administration, and cultural studies, as well as practitioners in the funeral industry. Though brief, the work provides a valuable snapshot of the intersection between public policy and personal mourning, shedding light on the often overlooked bureaucratic processes that shape our final rites.
