Johan Henrik Dahl (born 20 February 1960) is a Danish author and politician who since 2015 has been a member of the Folketing for the Liberal Alliance.[1]

Dahl first ran for parliament in the 2015 general election, where he was elected with 2,902 votes cast for him. He was reelected in the 2019 election with 1,737 votes.[2][3]

In Denmark, his book from 1997, Hvis din nabo var en bil (If your neighbor was a car), has been considered a cultural sociological masterpiece.[4] Dahl has described himself as a rindalist.[5][6]
