Reviews / Votes
"As French as Everyone Else? is a timely, unique, and major contribution. Brouard and Tiberj-leading French political science researchers-offer a concise book on the important case of France. Given the relatively large size of the country's immigrant population and its political and social significance, its study is especially relevant. These scholars examine in depth the cultural, political, and religious attitudes of this very important community. It is one about which little is known, in a scientific sense, until now." -Michael Lewis-Beck, F. Wendell Miller Distinguished Professor of Political Science at the University of Iowa and author of How France Votes, The French Voter: Before and After the 2002 Elections, and French Presidential ElectionsMore details
