Abstract: Desormais solidement installe dans l’espace mediatique et politique francais, le Front national est un parti qui a un long parcours de critiques ideologiques radicales envers l’ecole de la Republique. Ces denonciations recurrentes s’organisent autour du requisitoire central de la decadence scolaire, declinee en quatre poles essentiels : le laxisme, la debauche, la barbarie, l’illettrisme. Le laxisme, c’est la decadence de l’autorite. La debauche, c’est la decadence de la morale. La barbarie, c’est la decadence de l’ordre. L’illettrisme, c’est la decadence du niveau. Touchee par ces anathemes, l’ecole de la Republique doit etre attentive a les prendre pour ce qu’ils sont : des imprecations qui veulent la discrediter de la facon la plus extreme qui soit, pour mieux la combattre.

TL;DR: The authors traces the influence of the Front National on the transformation of mainstream French narratives of laicite since 1989, with particular attention to education policy and argues that the FN's right-wing populist rhetoric, particularly the systematic securitisation of Islam as a threat to the ‘people’, facilitated the more widespread reframing of Laicite as a Republican defence mechanism, operating primarily through the school system.
Abstract: This article traces the influence of Front National (FN) on the transformation of mainstream French narratives of laicite since 1989, with particular attention to education policy. It argues that the FN’s right-wing populist rhetoric, particularly the systematic securitisation of Islam as a threat to the ‘people’, facilitated the more widespread reframing of laicite as a Republican defence mechanism, operating primarily through the school system. Laicite was increasingly deployed in mainstream discourses and legislative measures to address two interrelated security concerns: the immediate safety of the school by the promotion of neutrality, and the overall wellbeing of the Republic via the prevention of radicalisation. Analysing this process in two specific periods (1989–2004 and 2005–2019), the article demonstrates that the FN’s populist agenda came to be in a symbiotic relationship with the centre-right and centre-left parties. While established parties gradually incorporated the FN’s securitisation narrative in their policymaking, the FN went through a process of ‘normalisation’ by claiming ownership of laicite as a way to frame its anti-Islam stance in a more acceptable Republican discourse.

TL;DR: Using the latest rounds of the European Quality of Government Index (EQI) survey data that sampled at the NUTS 2 regional level in France, and exploiting the fact that the French, presidential elections contained the same candidates (Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen) in 2017 and 2022, this article showed that regions increase their vote share for Le Pen where the quality of government decreases.
