A joint conference between the Minda de Gunzburg Center for European Studies at Harvard University and Sciences-Po Paris

Across the West, the traditional separation of church and state in many secular democracies is being called into question. This conference will examine the principle of secularism in light of multiculturalism and identity politics with special focus on France and the US. Bringing together sociologists, political scientists, historians, legal scholars, and philosophers, it will shed light on new political realities and discuss the debates over secularism today in the context of particular historical and institutional arrangements.

Organized by Stanley Hoffmann and Riva Kastoryano
