The author has presented the French society as splintered and fragmented, having journeyed from a united and inseparable nation to a multicultural "archipelago." Fourquet is not alone; hundreds of other publications describe the same phenomenon.

The book How Our World Ceased to Be Christian2 by historian Guillaume Cuchet stirred up a lot of interest.

This is how everyday realities look in many countries of the world.
