Intellectuals have historically played a significant role in French public life, yet relatively little is known about the work of Abdelwahab Meddeb, Malek Chebel, Leïla Babès, Dounia Bouzar, and Abdennour Bidar, whose writings and public interventions this book examines. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSecularism, Islam, and public intellectuals in contemporary France will be of particular interest to specialists, undergraduate, and post-graduate students working across the Humanities and Social Sciences from disciplines such as Francophone Studies, Anthropology, Religious Studies, or Sociology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 418g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 162 x 240 x 19 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781784994129\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nadia Kiwan","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44099553100026,"sku":"9781784994129","price":45.52,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/3d8fce4a230139c32b076738ed309c8c.jpg?v=1623978458","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/secularism-islam-and-public-intellectuals-in-contemporary-france","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
