## Resource

The intersection of religious customs and French secularism (laïcité) is one of the most enduring cultural and political flashpoints in modern France. Unlike the American model of secularism, which protects the individual’s freedom to practice religion openly, French laïcité focuses on the collective freedom from religious influence in public institutions, enforcing strict state neutrality.
