From 2015, Europe was hit by a new wave of terrorist attacks,
coordinated or supported by an international Islamist organization
(ISIS) but sometimes also perpetrated by citizens of the targeted
country: the attacks on Paris, Brussels, London, Manchester, Nice
and Barcelona probably attracted most attention but the most
dramatic were perpetrated in Paris, in January and November 2015.
These events shook the foundations of French society not only
because of their magnitude but also because of the symbolic nature
of the targets. Whilst in January, the targets were carefully
selected as emblematic of France (the satirical weekly Charlie
Hebdo, the police forces, the Jewish community) and of European
liberal values (journalists and cartoonists), in November the
victims ordinary people enjoying music, sports and restaurants. The
book offers a unique interdisciplinary investigation into the
complex responses of French society: from the individual level
(survivors of the Bataclan attack, emotional citizens paying homage
to the victims, French Muslims) to the meso level of civic
association and web communities, and the macro level of the State
and public opinion.
