Roundtable Lunch Discussion
with Prof. Mark Sedgwick, Aarhus University, Denmark
on Thursday, 25 February 2016, Dialogue Platform
At this event Prof Sedgwick has responded to the questions like to what extent perceptions are grounded in reality? What are the challenges of war, jihad and global terrorism?
Most of the individual Muslims who are best known in today’s Europe are not Western European Muslims but Middle Eastern Muslims such as Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden. The public visibility of Muslims in Western Europe is in part a function of the public visibility of the Muslim world, and especially of the Middle East. And what is most visible is conflict.
This roundtable discussion asked why and looked into the political and cultural relations between Western Europe and the Muslim world.
