Abstract
In this concluding chapter, I focus on the query in the book’s title, reflecting on some of the explicit aims and implicit implications of contemporary French secularism. I return to some of the ethnographic data discussed in the previous chapters and identify three examples beyond Petit Nanterre. I then briefly reconsider the secular/liberation equation.
