Résumé
When analyzing the links between conversion and religious freedom, different approaches are possible. However relevant they may be, these approaches often have the downside of starting with a given definition of "conversion", "religion" and hence "religious freedom". The approach to conversion (whether or not it takes itself to be strictly religious) would in fact suppose not to think the conversion from the convert, but the convert from the conversion. To take an interest in it as such, that is to say in what the conversion authorizes. The question is therefore that of the conditions of production and of testing, consequently of the expected operationality, of the initial double fiction of an irreducibly singular transformation and of a change, through this, of an order felt as unbearable. The importance of the phenomena of conversion could well refer to the problem of pluralism, no longer only religious today, but also social, ethical and political. Conversion would thus be experienced as a protection against the ambivalence intrinsically linked to the plurality of forms of life which are now ours.
