In Unveiling the French Republic: National Identity, Secularism, and Islam in Contemporary France , Per-Erik Nilsson engages in a careful critical analysis of the Veil Affairs. His critique, for the most part, is not on the decision of Muslim women to wear the veil but rather on the misuse of secular ideology to justify religious intolerance and mask ethnic prejudice. 410 0$aStudies in critical social sciences.$pStudies in critical research on religion ;$vVolume 7. 606 $aSecularism$zFrance 606 $aIslam$zFrance 607 $aFrance$xReligion$y21st century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSecularism 615 0$aIslam 676 $a305.6/970944 700 $aNilsson$b Per-Erik$0999867 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910478855703321 996 $aUnveiling the French Republic$92295202 997 $aUNINA
