Book Launch | Jews, Muslims, and the French Republic
Overview
France was the first nation in Europe to proclaim the universal rights of man and to rein in the power of an established church, but nevertheless has had chronic problems with religious minorities. In his , Steven Kramer explores the complex, triangular relationship between the French Republic, Jews, and Muslims. It is the first book to compare the experience of French Jews and Muslims over the longue dur茅e, tracing their experiences and interactions in both metropolitan France and the colonies under the evolving regime of la茂cit茅. This historical and comparative approach does more than illuminate past and current tensions鈥攊t suggests how they may be resolved.
In this roundtable discussion with Steven Kramer, moderated by Robin Quinville, Director of the Global Europe Program, led us through the primary themes, history, and challenges he explores in his seminal work.聽
His book is now via Cambria Press.
