I have recently discovered an interesting BBC page about French laïcité (particuliar French way to deal with Secularism).
Here is the link: BBC page on French Laïcité (secularism).
This page rightly emphasizes the importance of French History:
"Because of past precedent it is very easy for the French to interpret any strong religious views as a direct threat to their freedom and way of life".
Whoever wants to know more about the current state of French Protestantism should notice: a big Conference will be organized in Paris in 2010, from November, the 18th, to November the 20th.
The conference's title is : "French Protestantism : A restructured family". This conference is impulsed by the Protestant Federation of France (FPF).
I recently attended the annual ASR 2010 meeting in Atlanta (Georgia), a great US hub for social scientists working on religion.
Along with a few European scholars who were also present, I had the privilege to speak on my current research.
