Reihe: Human Rights Interventions

Reflects on the mechanisms through which the Roma and their situation have increasingly been securitized in post-1989 Europe

Investigates Roma problematization not only in the context of (regimes of) bordering-crossing and mobility, but also in that of development, neoliberalism, racialization, racism and visuality

Shows that development programs focusing on the social inclusion of the Roma and neoliberal policies concentrating on gentrification or conditional access to housing and employment have ambiguously contributed to the current Roma-related political impasses and the renewal of anti-Roma racism
