Post Mortem. Reason and Folly in the Debate over the Deprivation of Nationality
Pouvoirs n°160 - janvier 2017 - La Nationalité - p.99-112
The extension of the deprivation of nationality to bi-nationals condemned for terrorist crimes has ignited a heated public debate. It was proposed by the President in front of the Congress, three days after the November 13th 2015 terrorist attacks, and was abandoned on March 30th 2016, because of the impossibility to carry out the necessary revision of the Constitution. Together with the analysis of the key moments of this debate, some useful lessons can be drawn regarding the autonomy of the political sphere, the risks of acting in times of emergency, the complexity of the shaping of public opinion, and the dangers of the debate over the deprivation of nationality.
