About the conference
'Romani Mobilities in Europe' brings together Romani and non-Romani
scholars, students, activists and practitioners to discuss the multiple
dimensions and impacts of Romani mobilities in Europe (see conference
programme: http://romanimobilities.wordpress.com).
The key themes of the conference are:
- Variety and directions of contemporary Romani mobilities into, out of,
and within the EU, in the broader political, social, historical and
cultural context;
- historical perspectives on policy and practice aimed at governing
Romani mobilities;
- the concept, practice and limits of freedom of movement in the EU in
relation to the Roma case;
- the relationship between different legal statuses and patterns and
directions of Romani mobility;
- Romani politics in the enlarged EU and the process of Europeanisation
of the Roma issue;
- the relationship between indigenous and long-established Romani
communities and newly arrived Romani migrants;
- continuities and discontinuities in public discourses and social
policies for Roma, Gypsies and Travellers in the EU;
- issues of settlement and resettlement in the context of widespread
anti-Gypsyism;
- the impacts of migration on identity and cultural production.
The conference is organised by the Refugee Studies Centre and made
possible by a grant from the John Fell Oxford University Press Fund and
the support of ERSTE Foundation.
