Thirty years after the collapse of Communism, and at a time of
increasing anti-migrant and anti-Roma sentiment, this book analyses
how Roma identity is expressed in contemporary Europe. From
backgrounds ranging from political theory, postcolonial, cultural
and gender studies to art history, feminist critique and
anthropology, the contributors reflect on the extent to which a
politics of identity regarding historically disadvantaged,
racialized minorities such as the Roma can still be legitimately
articulated.

This book discusses how Europe's Roma minorities have often been
perceived as a threat to majority cultures and societies.
Frequently, the Roma have become the target of nationalism,
extremism, and racism. At the same time, they have been approached
in terms of human rights and become the focus of programs dedicated
to inclusion, anti-discrimination, and combatting poverty. This
book reflects on this situation from the viewpoint of how the Roma
are often 'securitized,' understood and perceived as 'security
problems.' The authors discuss practices of securitization and the
ways in which they have been challenged, and they offer an original
contribution to debates about security and human rights
interventions at a time in which multiple crises both in and of
Europe are going hand-in-hand with intensified xenophobia and
security rhetoric.
