He also looks at the specifics of individual Romani lives, particularly in Hungary and Romania.Highlighting the difficulties that all marginal peoples face, Pogany explains how the Roma have been devastated by the economic transition from Communism to open markets in Central and Eastern Europe since 1989. Mass unemployment, poverty, lack of education, as well as widespread anti-Roma discrimination and inadequate legal protection, have left the Roma facing intense hardship and marginalisation since the collapse of state socialism.However, this book is not just a catalogue of the challenges that the Roma face -- it is also a celebration of Roma cultures and of the acceptance of difference -- something that is more important than ever in our multicultural societies.RomaniesEurope, EasternEurope, EasternEthnic relationsElectronic books.Romanies305.891/49704Pogány István252708MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910454754703321The Roma caf2262551UNINA
