These two entities are collectively referred to as Sciences Po (see Use of Sciences Po), and are two of the most prestigious public policy research and teaching bodies in Europe. Descoings was also a senior member of the Conseil d'État. Descoings was born in Paris, where he graduated from the Institut d'études politiques (Sciences Po Paris) in 1980, and subsequently studied at the École nationale d'administration from 1983 to 1985. From 1985 to 1989, he worked as an auditor in the legal section of the Conseil d'État and, in 1987, was appointed special advisor to Alain Lancelot, Director of the Institut d'études politiques de Paris. In 1989 he was appointed Deputy Director of the Institut d’études politiques de Paris, and remained in that post until 1991 when he was appointed Counsel (''conseiller d'État'') of the Conseil d'État. From 1991 to 1993, he was successively technical advisor to the cabinet of the Minister for the Budget, with particular responsibility for monitoring the national education and higher education budget, and then special advisor to the Minister of National Education with responsibility for budgetary issues. From 1993 to 1996 he was appointed Deputy General Reporter on the report and studies section of the Conseil d'État and on the task force on the responsibilities and organization of the State. From 1995 to 1996, he worked as government commissioner for legal training at the Conseil d'État. He was appointed the chief figure at Sciences Po in 1996. For his service to the French Republic, Descoings was awarded Knight of the Order of Merit and Knight of the Order of Academic Palms. He was also awarded Commander of the Brazilian Order of Rio Branco〔 and an honorary doctorates from Waseda University, Japan. On April 3, 2012, he was found dead in a Manhattan luxury hotel room. The circumstances surrounding his premature death and controversial gay livestyle have generated rumours in the media, 〔 but it was determined that he died a natural death of "causes related to hypertension." 〔 "Sciences Po Director Died of Natural Causes" ''The Chronicle of Higher Education" May 30, 2012, ()〕 He is buried at the cemetery of Pernes-les-Fontaines in southeastern France.〔https://www.google.com/maps/place/43%C2%B059%2738.6%22N+5%C2%B003%2708.4%22E/@43.9938951,5.0523942,22z/data=!3m1!1e3〕 == Bibliography == *Raphaëlle Bacqué, ''Richie'', Paris, Grasset, 2015 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Richard Descoings」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
