| Summary: | Abstract Identity construction processes in Southeastern Europe and particularly in Serbia have resulted in distinct ideals of identities that are perceived to be incompatible with each other. Such understanding makes it extremely difficult to overcome ethnic, linguistic or religious/confessional boundaries. Almost any interconfessional or interreligious contact is by its nature interethnic and vice versa. Interreligious dialogue therefore faces great challenges but is not impossible to achieve. In the article, highlights and failed attempts from the history of interreligious dialogue initiatives in Serbia and Yugoslavia are presented and perspectives for the future are explored. |
