Inhoud:

The French government's 2004 decision to ban Islamic headscarves and other religious signs from public schools puzzled many observers. This book argues that the focus on headscarves came from a century-old sensitivity to the public presence of religion in schools, feared links between public expressions of Islamic identity and radical Islam.
