description Political delegation has often been interpreted as an institution which has caused the weakening of the State in the Islamic medieval world as elsewhere. In this article, we will try to show that political delegation is in fact constitutive of the State in the latter as elsewhere. In order to do so, the example of the Fatimid state is scrutinized because the abundance of the written production, which describes its creation, reflects a strong consciousness of what is at stake in such a process on behalf of the authors. This investigation will come back on the genesis — in the Bourdieusian meaning of the word — of the Fatimid State and on the central role played by the political delegation from its outset, two aspects which are not specific to the Fatimid State.
