Abstract
This is an analysis of the cultural and religious socialization of young Muslims who were born and/or brought up in Europe. Is it possible to apply to them the category of “generation”, and why? The author goes on to examine religious socialization in the family, the diversity of ways in which young people re-appropriate Islam, and their current e.orts to return to a “line of faith”. Finally, identifying changes in the processes of transmission (content and practices) throws light on the questions raised by new generations: the claim to a gender identity for women through the prism of religion, a new demand for citizenship, the problem of the search for religious authority. All these developments remove Islam from its enclave and help to distance it from being socially constructed as an exception.
