In 1989 three Muslim schoolgirls from a Paris suburb refused to remove their Islamic headscarves in class. The headscarf crisis signaled an Islamic revival among the children of North African immigrants; it also ignited an ongoing debate about the place of Muslims within the secular nation-state. Based on ten years of ethnographic research, The Republic Unsettled alternates between an analysis of Muslim French religiosity and the contradictions of French secularism that this emergent religiosity precipitated. Mayanthi L. Fernando explores how Muslim French draw on both Islamic and secular-republican traditions to create novel modes of ethical and political life, reconfiguring those traditions to imagine a new future for France. She also examines how the political discourses, institutions, and laws that constitute French secularism regulate Islam, transforming the Islamic tradition and what it means to be Muslim. Fernando traces how long-standing tensions within secularism and republican citizenship are displaced onto France's Muslims, who, as a result, are rendered illegitimate as political citizens and moral subjects. She argues, ultimately, that the Muslim question is as much about secularism as it is about Islam.

Описание: General Louis Eugene Cavaignac has been a symbol of reactionary violence ever since he crushed the insurgent workers of Paris in the "bloody June Days" of 1848. Professor de Luna presents a fresh interpretation of the General, as well as a detailed examination of the turbulent year of European revolution, until Cavaignac was defeated by Louis Bonap
Описание: An account of the early days of the Legion in North Africa The 18th and 19th centuries saw a significant acceleration in colonisation as the European powers scrambled to take over underdeveloped countries and their peoples and rule them as satellite states. This was invariably an arrangement founded in blood and was fiercely resisted. The British claimed India, the Dutch their holdings in the East Indies and France established itself in North Africa-among other places. Beyond the coastal region the African land was often barren desert or mountainous and this type of terrain is, of course, the breeding ground of necessarily tough and resilient people who naturally take poorly to subjugation. There was the potential for almost continual tribal warfare and there arose a corresponding French response which included-in terms of forces-the Chasseurs d'Afrique and the legendary French Foreign Legion. This book contains two accounts of the French in Algiers. The first is a personal account by Clemens Lamping, a young lieutenant in Oldenburg service, who in 1839 found his way into the ranks of the Legion; all legion accounts are fascinating and this one detailing Legion life in the first half of the 19th century is no exception. It is joined here by an interesting account of captivity by the Arabs which provides an interesting insight into the 'enemy' camp. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket; our hardbacks are cloth bound and feature gold foil lettering on their spines and fabric head and tail bands.

Описание:
The basic concern of the author is to find the reason for the persistent leftist character of French working-class politics in a period of rapid industrialization and improving living standards. Reanalyzing material from surveys made by two French organizations, he finds that increased affluence is correlated with changes in social structure that increase radicalism. As rural and small-town workers come into big cities and large plants, they are influenced by political activists who provide them with a Communist frame of reference for interpreting the meaning of new affluence.

Описание: Over the years some very good work has been published on the Federalist Revolt, but no one has attempted an overarching study of the event in over a century. Hanson presents a general narrative of the events as well as a pointed analysis that ultimately seeks to identify what, exactly, divided Girondins from Montagnards.

Описание: Archibald Alison (1792-1867) was a deeply conservative Scottish historian who viewed political reform and democracy with suspicion. His History of Europe during the French Revolution was published after the Reform Act of 1832, and regarded the democratic ideals of the early revolutionaries as leading to Europe-wide anarchy.
