certaines anomalies, notamment l’effet de taille (Banz [Ban81]) ont progressivement fait naitre le doute sur la validité du CAPM. Le paroxisme du doute a sans dote été atteint lorsque les résultats de Fama & French [FF92] ont même semblé le rejeter complètement.

European Court of Human Rights (ECHR). The analysis of the foreign measures brings to light three particularities of the French legislation: the possibility of placing a person in police custody for a minor offense, the absence of constitutional measures on the police custody and the limited intervention of the lawyer during the police custody. The police custody in the French constitutes an exception in Europe. A study of legislation compared by the Senate in six European countries (Germany, England
