The article highlights the role of an eccentric troublemaker at the beginning of the twentieth century – Lucien Bailly. The Pont-à-Mousson company’s archives, one of the major joint stock companies in the mining industry at that time, provide a wealth of information about this very interesting character. It is argued that Lucien Bailly paved the way for present-day activism. While the nature of shareholder-activists is far different today, there is a similar dichotomy between private and public or cooperative and hostile actions. This is the true legacy of Lucien Bailly. He was also the pioneer of proxy fights with the creation of the first association defending minority shareholders and the precursor of social activism.

Lucien Bailly (1871–1940)：一个古怪的麻烦制造者和一个真正的先驱。二十世纪初法国股东激进主义的短篇小说

这篇文章重点介绍了 20 世纪初一位古怪的麻烦制造者——吕西安·拜利（Lucien Bailly）的角色。Pont-à-Mousson 公司的档案是当时采矿业的主要股份公司之一，提供了关于这个非常有趣的人物的大量信息。有人认为，吕西安·拜利为当今的激进主义铺平了道路。虽然今天股东激进主义者的性质大不相同，但私人与公共或合作与敌对行动之间存在类似的二分法。这是 Lucien Bailly 的真正遗产。他还是代理权斗争的先驱，创建了第一个捍卫少数股东的协会，也是社会激进主义的先驱。
