A calculation of the linearization coefficients of the (generalized) Laguerre polynomials $L_n^{( \alpha )} ( x )$ is proposed by means of analytic and combinatorial methods. This paper extends to the case of an arbitrary $\alpha $ a combinatoric and analytic result due to Askey, Ismail, and Koornwinder and Even and Gillis.
