Дискуссии о проблеме радикализации ислама во Франции начала XXI в.

Abstract

Since the 1970s, Islamic radicals periodically have organized attacks on the civilian population of France. The most massive, in terms of the number of victims, were the terrorist attacks committed in November 2015. Since then, discussions about Islamists and immigration policy have filled not only the French-language media, but also the world ones. The most famous among the researchers studying modern Muslim immigrants and the phenomenon of extremism, are J. Kepel and O. Rua. Scholars and the media to explain the emergence and spread of Islamic extremist ideas among immigrants most often cite their polemics on the radicalization of Islam or Islamization of radicalism. The author considers the main discussions on the problem of radicalization of Islam, which have been going on since the beginning of the 21st century, and how they reflect the modern media discourse.
