After a 24 -hour public opinion violent attack, on February 26, the brand of French sports retailer Decathlon's brand promotion of the external image of the external image, Shabie Middot; Xavier Rivaoire finally stood up.He said: This sports product will not be sold in France.
The product that Livar said is a headscarf designed for Muslim female runners.It is unexpectedly that this chain sporting goods business may be that this product selling only 8 euros will become a devil who can destroy the social values of French.Virus -like hatred is no longer limited to the Internet space. In the extremely short time on the morning of February 26, Decathlon's customer service received more than 500 lines of protest telephone and mail.attack.
In the past few weeks, the support rate of the French people on the yellow vest movement from the end of last year has begun to fall to 40 %.The foundation of this change is that although public opinion supports or understands the demands of the yellow vest, it denys the violent behavior in this movement.In the context of Decathlon's new products, it has triggered a storm and raining speech violence, which is obviously inseparable from politicians' waves.
For French politicians, social events before the EU Parliament election are good opportunities for public opinion.Some politicians known for watching the wind quickly joined the critical camp quickly.In the last election, a large number of blood loss had been lost from the French Right Party Republican Party, which fell to the second step party from the first opposition party to the second ladder party.Republican spokesman Lydia Guirous, Lydia Guirous, said fiercely, and she accused Decathlon in yield to Islamic, and her party charged a new invasion of Islamic ethnicism in the public space.Members of the ruling party are no exception. The highest awareness is the ruling party spokesman Our Middot; Aurore Berge, who is famous for her. She pointed out on Twitter that sports is liberation.As a woman and citizen, my choice is no longer trusting a brand that breaks our values.
What is the values of the Republic of France?Isn't it freedom, equality, blog love?This is not just the decorative text engraved on each city government building. The motto of the French Republic is also the second in the 1958 French Constitution.
The French people's determination to pursue and defended freedom has been confirmed for centuries.Defending the freedom of speech, the freedom of publishing, the freedom of the rally, and the freedom of religious beliefs. The company has the freedom to choose their business products. It is undeniable that these are the freedom that must be enjoyed under the framework of legal permission.
So, does Decathlon's business behavior of selling Muslim sports headscarves in France has surpassed the scope of freedom given by law?
The law in 2010 is quite clear.On October 11 of this year, the French legislation banned the costumes that were sufficient to cover the face in public. The law was also called the cloth method.This law that caused social controversy at the time was recognized by the European Human Rights Court four years later.The court determined in the judgment that the conditions for maintaining lsquo; common living together are the legal goals of the French authorities.
Regarding whether Muslim women can wear headscarves can be traced back to March 2004.The French authorities make a decision to prohibit the wearing religious colored ornaments on school through legislation, and they are also considered to be aimed at Muslim headscarves.However, the scope of application of the Fa is limited to the elementary and middle school campus in France, and it is not suitable for universities.The reason is that primary and secondary school students should be like a piece of white paper. They are in the stage of absorbing basic knowledge. Before they have independent judgment, they should not be affected by other external factors including religious factors.
In other words, in the current laws of France, there are no clauses that are not forbidden to wear religious ornaments for the purpose of covering the face in public places other than primary and secondary schools.If Decathlon's business behavior is not illegal, then the resistance to Decathlon's resistance to Decathlon is the impact and negation of the values of freedom, equality, and blogging in French society.
In the discussion of the right to wear a headscarf woman across the country, French President Macron publicly confirmed that if a private company is recruiting employees, this company will be punished.So, how to understand, in a society that is allowed to wear headscarves, the headscarf for selling and running becomes the target of the criticism?
One of the reasons for the attacker is that France is a secular society.Americans on the other side of the ocean laughed.The Washington Post's article pointed out with a joke: As an official secular society, France banned all religious symbols and signs in public life.Of course, the exception of Christmas trees and Christmas cents (where Jesus was born there) provided by the municipal government in winter.In addition, each Catholic Festival and all administrative institutions are closed.But in France, selling a running headscarf looks like a scandal!
France is a secular society and goes back to December 9, 1905.On this day, France promulgated laws on the separation of politics and religion, which is the result of the secularization reform process carried out since the French Revolution.It declares freedom of faith, ensures freedom of religious activities, and establishes a new religious system.France has since become a secular country.But secular countries are not a country that prohibit religious beliefs. The law defends the Republic to ensure freedom of belief in the primary position.
Furthermore, if it is not from the perspective of defending the right to women, but just considering religious factors, there are many citizens who see other religious signs on the streets of Paris, such as Jewish men wearing Kikipa.
Whether the headscarf is obedient
Another reason for the attacker is that the headscarf is an obedient, a woman's yield to patriarchal, the yield of religion, and sports should be a symbol of freedom.The implication is that these critics are acting to defend women's rights and improve women's status.Regarding this, even Marlene Schiappa, who is in charge of men and women's equality and anti -discrimination, can't stand it anymore.In the public statement, she asked how to explain before talking about the question, and some politicians are only interested in women's rights on the issue of headscarves?When did we hear some of their contraceptive measures that support women?What about abortion?
The essence of this problem is that do Muslim women in France bring their headscarves because of yielding?Many people refute this statement.In fact, in today's French society, wearing a headscarf is not only an obedient manifestation, but also conveys the unique information. Like Rap music prevailed among young people in the suburbs, it means that I am different from you. I want to press me.Method life.It is considered that the right editor of the right -wing media in the right of France, the editor -in -chief of Lincorrect Gabriel Middot; Gabirel Robin, recorded such a paragraph in his article: in the suburbs of SEVRAN, Paris,A geopolitical professor told him that some of his female students, but about 13 years old, dreamed of wearing headscarves, but the mothers of these girls did not have the habit of wearing headscarves.
Some feminists in France also chose to stand on the side of supporting Decathlon for the reason.As a feminist Valerie Rey-Robert said: Some people are unable to distinguish this, and a woman wearing a headscarf in France is not forced to do this like Iran.
Of course, for women who cannot remove their headscarves in the country where they are in the country where they are under France, French Muslim women choose their right to fight against their rights.Some French politicians have accused or worry about the bad impression of French women in the international community.But how can Muslims wearing headscarves with a rare ratio of this part linked with the international image of French women?When the magnificent anti -homosexual marriage parade appeared in countless international media, do these people think?It is also in some Muslim countries, just being thrown into jail because of sexual orientation, and even facing homosexuality of death threats?What's more, so far, what has caused international adverse impact seems to be more prohibited on sports -type headscarves and is considered rough and ridiculous.
Why did French society attack the Decathlon group?Behind the anti -logic of the prohibition of sales, the French society has an anxiety of Islamic penetration behind the anti -logic of sales.
In January 2015, the French best -selling writer Middot; Michel Houellebecq published a novel called Soumission. Fiction France will become a Islamic country in 2022. After the publication, it will quickly board France to France.Sales version of the champion; the terrorist guns of the sarcasm media Sarley Weekly in the same month, and several large -scale terrorist incidents have occurred in the next few years, which have increased French society to the alert to Islam.
It is undeniable that there are still many people in French society that can distinguish between the differences between Muslims and Islamic extremists, but over the past few years, the words and deeds that hate Muslims have penetrated into all class of society and have a tendency to openly and liberalize.
Although France prohibits investigations and statistics on race and religion, it does not prevent various calculations and analysis.Among the 66 million total population in France, the French who believe in Islam are expected to be 5 million to 6 million, close to 10%of the population ratio.However, the data provided by the latest phase of Viewpoint Magazine further triggers concern to the total population of Muslims.
In this survey, in 2015, 18.5%of the French boyfriend was named in the name of Arab Muslim surnames, and this ratio was 2.5%in 1968.The editor of Viewpoint Magazine adds a line of labeling: If all boys and girls are counted, this ratio will rise.
I'm afraid this is why French values have no answer to a Muslim headscarf.
