The Development Of Terrorism In France And The Analysis Of Its Cause

The greatest security challenge in today's international community is terrorism,which is always a threat to the security and stability of the international community.In recent years,with the rise of the Islamic state,united front against international terrorism has been gradually formed,the Western powers and the United States joined forces to implement a strong blow against the increasingly rampant terrorism.However,the combats brought crazy revenge led by Islamic state and other terrorist forces,which suffered badly the France in series of terrorist attacks.From the blow up of "The Charlie weekly event" in January 7,2015,the haze of terrorism in France was not scattered but occurred again in Paris which caused 129 deaths,300 injured.Later in 2016 during the National Day in France,broke out "The Nice terrorist attacks".Therefore,we have some doubts:As a European country,why France has become the hardest hit by terrorist activities?In addition to the great relevance of international terrorism,whether there is a "French factor"?Was France's anti-terrorism policy effective?What is the social and historical background of France?Did the early colonial rule and the modern immigration policy aggravate the division of French society?Was France's foreign policy appropriate?Since twenty-first Century,did the France's three leaders develop a national policy in line with national conditions?On the basis of analyzing the development of terrorist attacks in France,this article will lead to a series of domestic problems in France and explore the causes of the major terrorist attacks in France.First of all,the French government's understanding of terrorism originated in 1980s,has undergone many terrorist incidents,and gradually shaped.In 2010s,the Islamic state terrorist organization has broken the French government cognition of terrorism,has become the culprit of France continuous terrorist attacks.The rise of the Islamic state is a prerequisite for terrorism in France.Compared with the former terrorism,French terrorism has the characteristics of sudden onset and localization of murderers.Whether it is the "9.11" incident,or the London subway bombings,the terrorist masterminds are foreign background,while in France,attacks are being planned to launch by French citizens,the nature of the terrorist attacks is unknown.To increase the difficulty of prevention is another feature of the French terrorist attacks,although there are some local terrorists contact with the Islamic state,but the spontaneous nature of the terrorist attacks are becoming more common,and the difference between the terrorists and the masses is not obvious.The causes of terrorism in France are worth studying.This is a historical,ethnic and political issue.First of all,France has a long colonial history,and its colonial regions and ethnic structures are different,including blacks and arabs.The French occupation of Algeria was in 1830,for over 100 years,to a certain extent,Algeria's colonial rule has promoted the modernization of this region,but for the majority of of Muslim groups in Algeria's population has been always took into a high pressure policy,until 1960s,after a brutal anti colonial struggle against the France,Algeria people remained the control.Muslims were completely liberated.Second,the reconstruction of Europe after World War ? required substantial immigration support,and France had no exception.The French has long-term uphold the principle of "Republic of assimilation" immigration policy,this idea has some traditional idealism in early period of the French Revolution,the French would adhere to the"Republic" concept,it emphasizes that all French citizens should give up their original culture,religion,language and accept the values of the French Republic,than entitled to the rights of citizens.This traditional idea faced severe challenges in the wave of emigration after World War ii.Muslim immigrants did not accept the idea of "Republic"culture of France.The social status of Muslim immigrants was not improved,the ethnic differences were great,and the social injustice also encouraged the Muslim groups to depend on their religious beliefs.Today,French society is still seriously divided.Third,since twenty-first Century,the foreign policy of the head of the French government is also the focus of the study.After World War II,France sought the position of great power,and had drawn a clear line with the United States,she left NATO,developed nuclear weapons and became a military power.In Chirac's tenure,relations between France and the United States remained unchanged on the basis of old principles.However,in the age of Sarkozy and Hollande,the political vane of France reversed 180 degrees.All external action of France not only verbal support to the United States,but also actively involved in some military actions,such as military strikes against Libya,Syria and other Muslim countries,which caused the deterioration of relations between France and the Muslim world.
