She had been working in France for a while. Back then, sociologist already knew that new generations were moving away from western culture.

I remember we had a conversation about this. She explained it to me as some identity issue. New generations born in Europe didn’t feel European, and they needed to find their identity. Deepening into Islam provided some strong and widely shared identity. This was happening to new generations in France.

This conversation took place about 15 years ago.

That has been happening for a long while and it was known. It has been no surprise.
