Book excerpt: This study discusses how and why public and elite opinion moved towards the requirement of the abolishment of the European blasphemy laws, analyzing the case Adel Smith opened against Oriana Fallaci as an example. Consequently, non-governmental organizations initiated mediation programs between Eastern and Western cultures. Such programs should lead to the abolition of the blasphemy law in Europe as a democratic continent.
