Σύνοψη: | The establishment in 2006 of a military chaplaincy to Muslims in the French armed forces was a historic initiative which normalised the situation of France's second religion within the institution. The purpose of this article is to explore the conditions for the emergence of this chaplaincy. From a socio-historical perspective, I analyse not only the many paradoxes surrounding the status of a Muslim military chaplain in the French context but also the various sociological factors and policies that have contributed to its institutionalisation. In the second part of the article I describe how this body operates, drawing on empirical data on the practices and experiences of Muslim personnel within the French military. |
