5. What domestic issues did England and France have?

The historical ties on domestic issues between France and England are long and complex characterized by wars, conquest, and alliances at various points of their history. The interaction of domestic institutional structures and preexisting ideas in England and France is critical towards the explanation and understanding of the cross-national differences in the impact of international ideas. The interaction of decentralized policymaking and liberal gatekeepers in England, for example, led to the acceptance of educational multiculturalism, whereas France's centralized system and republican and laïque priors prevented its approval. Examination of the differential impact of educational multiculturalism in relatively similar countries has contributed to ongoing debates on the implications of foreign ideas on domestic politics.
