Abstract

France, a secular country that does not recognize any role for religion in the public sphere, is engaged in an attempt to hinder the expansion of "separatist" islamism through the construction of a republican state Islam. This path, which gained particular momentum during the presidency of Macron, inevitably magnifies the politicization of religion. The objective of this article is to show the intrinsic contradictions of this project and the dynamics of opposite sign that it can produce. The author also underlies the risk that such a socio-religious model may not find legitimacy among muslims.
