Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the long history of prejudice and discrimination against the Roma people, a group often referred to as Gypsies. The author delves into the complex socio-political landscape of Eastern Europe, highlighting the challenges faced by the Roma in the wake of the collapse of communism. The book reveals how the Roma, a largely stateless and dispersed minority, have been subject to various forms of abuse, including racial violence, discrimination in education and housing, and the denial of basic human rights. The text also examines the role of historical factors, including the centuries of slavery endured by the Roma in Romania and the systematic targeting of the Roma for extermination during the Holocaust, in perpetuating prejudice against them. Drawing upon the perspectives of Roma leaders from various countries, the author provides a powerful account of the systemic vulnerabilities of this group and underscores the urgent need for a deeper understanding of their situation. This book illuminates the continued struggles of the Roma and serves as a vital call for action to protect their rights and promote their integration into society.
