The Securitization of the Roma in Europe Hardback
Edited by Huub van Baar, Ana Ivasiuc, Regina Kreide
Part of the Human Rights Interventions series
Hardback
Description
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.
