In the long changing process, the educational formation based on humanistic intelligence underwent gradual changes and the professional education was developped to promote the formation of technolojical intelligence in response to industrialisation. In the hitorical context. I could give an objective explanation of the internal substantiation processes of the construction of French modern state. Less
