Salafism in France: From Islamic Revolution to Conservative Revolution For about the past 20 years, Salafism has become an incontrovertible actor in the re-Islamization of French suburbs. Despite reference to a historically ossified model, that of the pious ancestors (Prophet Mohammed's companions), the Salafist current is a dynamic one. This article intends to analyze the ideological transformations of the movement. Although there has been a weakening of the Salafist political line, the protest dimension remains one of the pillars of this school's doctrinal identity. Its ideological transformations are less linked to an internal revolution than to external political constraints and imperatives (state pressure, international context). That being the case, the ideological re-orientations of French Salafists are primarily a reaction to the call of an era, the state of political balances of power and the constraints they impose.
