I need some assistance with these assignment. the distinction between religion and politics in france Thank you in advance for the help! The French concept of laïcité while generally viewed as the separation of church and state goes much deeper into the French consciousness, history and law. Laïcité, or secular society, dates back to the French Revolution and its bloody attempt to eliminate the Catholic Church’s influence over its newly formed Republic, the notion which so disturbed the French in Sarkozy’s remarks. It has held that definition and confirmed it in the Law of Separation of 1905. Yet, if interpreted fully, laïcité includes provisions to protect the rights of the church and all religions and individuals under those rights, while giving the state the power to enforce “the strict separation of public and private, with all forms of secondary associations placed firmly within the latter domain” (McKinnon & Castiglione, 2003). During the twentieth century the term evolved to mean equal treatment of all religions, although a more restrictive interpretation of the term has developed since 2004 in response to the controversial Stasi Commission Report.
