In recent news coverage of the dramatic political events in Eastern
Europe, Gypsies have been a favourite sidebar topic. Some of the
stories have been truly horrifying, others are written
condescendingly and to amuse; but what has become clear is how
little we really know about this people. In a concerted effort to
uncover the modern history of the Rom in Eastern Europe, the
authors examine the Gypsy experience in Albania, Czechoslovakia,
Hungary, Romania and Yugoslavia, with special attention to the Nazi
Holocaust as well as to the record of the forced settlement and
education programmes instituted by communist regimes.
