Conclusions.This book deals with the social exclusion of Romanies (‘Gypsies’) in Italy. Based on interviews with Romani individuals, institutional and Civil Society Organisations’ (CSOs) representatives, participant observation and a broad range of secondary sources, the volume focuses on the conditions of those living in Rome’s urban slums and on the recent implementation of the so-called ‘Emergenza Nomadi’ (Nomad Emergency). The enactment of this extraordinary measure concealed the existence of a long-established institutional tradition of racism and control directed at Romanies. It was not the result of a sudden, unexpected situation which required an immediate action, as the declaration of an ‘emergency’ might imply, but rather of a precise government strategy. By providing an investigation into the interactions between Romanies, local institutions and CSOs, this book will deliver a new perspective on the Romani issue by arguing that the ‘camp’ is not only a tool for institutional control and segregation, but also for ‘resistance’, as well as a huge business in which everyone plays their part.Mapping Global RacismsSocial structureEqualityEthnicityRacism in the social sciencesPolitical sociologySocial Structure, Social Inequalityhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22010Ethnicity Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22180Sociology of Racismhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22260Political Sociologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22170Social structure.Equality.Ethnicity.Racism in the social sciences.Political sociology.Social Structure, Social Inequality.Ethnicity Studies.Sociology of Racism.Political Sociology.305Armillei Riccardoauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut890798BOOK9910300596703321The ‘Camps System’ in Italy1989860UNINA
