The notion of a coalgebra-Galois extension is defined as a natural generali
sation of a Hopf-Galois extension. It is shown that any coalgebra-Galois ex
tension induces a unique entwining map psi compatible with the right coacti
on. For the dual notion of an algebra-Galois coextension it is also proven
that there always exists a unique entwining structure compatible with the r
ight action.
