Sažetak Dansko iskustvo je vrlo specifično kada su u pitanju međuvjerski dijalog i kršćansko-muslimanski odnosi. Ono je, tokom zadnjih decenija, obilježeno izrazito negativnim epizodama i političkom isključivošću, ali i veoma značajnim i snažnim dijaloškim inicijativama. Cilj ovog članka je da prikaže sliku aktuelne situacije i ponudi analitički uvid u slijed događaja po kojima je Danska došla u žižu interesovanja vezano za islam i muslimane. U tom smislu, članak tretira status religija, izazove i mogućnosti međuvjerskog dijaloga,kao i moguće perspektive suživota.
