Author's note: This article first took shape thanks to a last-minute invitation to speak at the “Secularism and Its Discontents Conference,” at the University of Pennsylvania's Herbert D. Katz Center for Advanced Judaic Studies. I thank Ethan Katz and Jonathan Gribetz for the invitation and their insightful and careful comments as well as the conversation that it sparked. Subsequent discussions at the “1962/2012: The World after Algerian Independence” conference at Johns Hopkins University; the Centre des études maghrebines en Algérie, in Oran; and Georgetown University at Doha, Qatar, all helped me greatly. My thanks to the American Institute for Maghreb Studies for its support. Particular thanks to Robert Parks, Karim Ouaras, Edward Kolla, Saïd Gahia, and Joan Scott for their suggestions. I also thank Sarah A. Stein for the trip to Ghardaïa and its archives, and the conversations it energized. Finally, the guidance of Beth Baron, Sara Pursley, and the four anonymous reviewers was precious and much appreciated.

³ On the choice of Algeria's Jews for France, see esp. Sarah B. Sussman, “Changing Lands, Changing Identities: The Migration of Algerian Jewry to France, 1954–1967” (PhD diss., Stanford University, 2002).

⁴ Recent scholarship often cites the works of two French sociologists, Daniele Hervieu-Léger and Dominique Schnapper. These works are particularly focused on Muslims and, in Schnapper's case, Jews in contemporary France. See Hervieu-Léger, , La religion pour mémoire (Paris: Cerf, 1993), 228–37Google Scholar; and Schnapper, , “Le sens de l'ethnico-religieux,” Archives des sciences sociales des religions 81 (1993): 149–63CrossRefGoogle Scholar. The qualifier “ethnoreligious” has been in use since at least the early 20th century; the first use I have found in print is Dushkin, Alexander M., Jewish Education in New York City (New York: Bureau of Jewish Education, 1918), 1Google Scholar.

⁵ Davidson show how 20th-century French dealings with Islam in metropolitan France were always framed in reference to Algeria and relied on “corporeal” or “racialized” logics to define Muslims as “only Muslims”; however, she largely ignores the role of law and and does not explore how Algerian nationalism and independence or French policy toward Islam shaped wider French institutions, principles, or understandings, such as laïcité or citizenship. See Davidson, Naomi, Only Muslim: Embodying Islam in Twentieth-Century France (Ithaca, N.Y.: Cornell University Press, 2012)CrossRefGoogle Scholar.

⁷ This was particularly true, as Idith Zertal shows, when non-French Jews, notably refugees, were the people linked to Zionism.

⁸ Hannah Arendt laid out the template for this 19th-century history in The Origins of Totalitarianism, which describes how French republicans during the 19th century defined their “territorial” nationalism in opposition to French “reactionaries” (Catholic and antirepublican) by linking their opponents to a “German model” (based in ethnicity, an opposition that Rogers Brubaker influentially detailed) or a “British model” (which Linda Colley has linked to Protestantism) of the nation.

⁴⁵ The most well-known sign was the secularization thesis itself, which turned a conflict into a certainty: religion did not need to be fought, as it would wither away.
