Abstract

In some French schools, students challenged the minuteâs silence in tribute to the victims of the attack on Charlie Hebdo, thus revealing divisions whose extent and motivations remain poorly studied. With the necessary caution, our survey shows that students who do not fully condemn the perpetrators of the 2015 Paris attacks and/or who did not feel concerned by the minuteâs silence are not distinctive in terms of their family or socio-economic situation, nor in terms of their feelings of being discriminated against on ethno-religious grounds. On the other hand, they are more often tolerant of deviance and violence in social life, are more frequently of foreign origin and are more numerous among young people of the Muslim faith. From what these students have to say, it appears that many of them are challenging the freedom to show disrespect for Islam and some of its dogmas. AÂ lesser feeling of belonging to the national community also reduces their empathy towards the victims.
