Reviews

""""In this comparative ethnography, Ferrara provides a sharp and thoughtful intervention into the complexities of laicité and secularism. Building off of Leopold Senghor's notion of francité, or Frenchness, she illustrates how Muslims are excluded, yet Catholics are included in a 'secular' France."""" --Jean Beaman, Author of 'Citizen Outsider: Children of North African Immigrants in France' """"A masterful guide to the complexities of communitarian politics in 21st Century France."""" --Jonathan Laurence, Professor of Political Science, Boston College, USA
