This course explores how non-normative French communities are evolving the sacrosanct notions of French citizenship, universalism, and republicanism in contemporary France. Students will explore works focused on members of the LGBTQI+, Muslim, immigrant, banlieue, and feminist communities through readings, cultural realia, film, documentaries, conferences, and critical articles. We will question what it means to be a citizen in contemporary France; how the rise of communitarian practices is viewed by and is changing the French Republic; what form a "Queer" French Republic might take.
