Source-derived summary

Pierre Cazeneuve (French pronunciation: [pjɛʁ kaznœv]; born 11 March 1995) is a French politician of Renaissance (RE) who has represented the 7th constituency of the Hauts-de-Seine department in the National Assembly since 2022.

Early life and education

Cazeneuve was born in Saint-Cloud on 11 March 1995, the son of Jean-René Cazeneuve and his wife Béatrice. He has a sister, Marguerite. He earned his Baccalauréat in 2012 with a mention très bien and enrolled at Sciences Po.

Political career

Cazeneuve was elected to the municipal council of Saint-Cloud in 2014. In 2020, he was appointed deputy chief of staff at the Élysée.

Cazeneuve was selected as the La République En Marche! (LREM, later Renaissance) candidate in the 7th constituency of Hauts-de-Seine for the 2022 legislative election; he succeeded fellow party member Jacques Marilossian in office, who failed to be selected again. Cazeneuve, elected under the Ensemble (ENS) alliance, easily won the seat in the second round with 72% of the vote against Sandro Rato of La France Insoumise (FI), who ran under the New Ecological and Social People's Union (NUPES) alliance.

Cazeneuve had previously run for the seat in the 2017 legislative election for Allons enfants, a social-liberal youth party he launched in 2015.

Editorial summary

Begin with the source’s own compact description: “Pierre Cazeneuve” is french politician. The dossier treats that line as a proposition to test through Pierre, Cazeneuve and French, not as a finished interpretation.

Editorial reviewStrongest as a route into the people, institutions and dated events that shaped the subject’s public record. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1995, 2022, 2012, 2014—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1995-03-11. For this dossier, Pierre, Cazeneuve and French is the immediate research focus.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “french politician” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

The entry’s evidential value lies in the named roles, institutions and publications that can be tested against primary documentation. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 4, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q87116010. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1995, 2022, 2012 and 2014.

Critical limits

Public reputation and documentary evidence do not always develop together; absence from a summary is not evidence of historical absence. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it
