Abstract

The term "halal" has spread to the everyday language of non-Muslims. Originally connected to a complex theological-doctrinal practice, the word has taken on new meanings from usages growing out of Muslim immigration and the consequent development of commercial halal markets. Against this background, the uncertain and inconsistent response of institutions stands out: defenseless against the aggressiveness of the market and inclined to intermittent and often contradictory responses to challenges posed by cultural diversity and religious pluralism.
