Using detailed examples from Finland, Hungary, Canada and the UK,
this book explores relationships between the racialization and
discrimination experienced by heterogeneous European Roma
populations, and the processes of everyday bordering embedded in
state policies and media discourses. In the context of the long
histories of discrimination experienced by Roma people across
Europe, the chapters engage with changing EU policies, including
the recent tensions between inter-European de-bordering and the
selective immigration policies introduced as different states react
to EU free movement. Employing an intersectional analysis, the
authors capture the perspectives of differentially situated people
and associated discourses to examine the continuing racism
experienced by European Roma citizens in their interaction with
bordering technologies. They examine the homogenizing 'racial
othering' and construction of Roma as a 'criminal category' that
co-exists with the differentiations made between 'indigenous' and
'migrant' Roma central to dominant bordering discourses and the
contestations of different Roma populations. Chapters focus on Roma
activism and the media, the exclusion of Roma residents via urban
regeneration and welfare provision, and powerful media and
political discourses about Roma populations in different national
and transnational contexts. This book was originally published as a
special issue of Ethnic and Racial Studies.
