← Terug naar het dashboard
📅 15 Maart 2004 📍 Frankrijk

France promulgated a law prohibiting conspicuous religious signs or clothing in public primary and secondary schools, framed through laïcité. Its scope included Muslim headscarves and other conspicuous religious symbols. A decolonial reading examines how formally general rules can shape minority access and belonging; the law did not ban all religious expression throughout France.
