This complex social and political problem requires thorough historical studies, and this book, the most comprehensive history of Gypsies in Romania, is a valuable contribution. Based on academic research, it synthesizes the entire historical Romanian and foreign literature on the topic, utilizing extensive information from archives. The book focuses on the most significant events, including slavery, integration, assimilation, and marginalization of Gypsies, with a historical perspective. The emancipation of Gypsies in the mid-19th century is given due attention, and the deportation of Gypsies to Transnistria during the Antonescu regime between 1942-1944 is reconstructed in a dedicated chapter. The closing chapters explore the policy towards Gypsies in the decades following the Second World War, providing insights into the latest developments and the current situation of this population in Romania today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 468g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 227 x 163 x 19 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9789639241848\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ViorelAchim","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":47060671332602,"sku":"9789639241848","price":108.34,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1737108259450_book.jpg?v=1737193657","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-roma-in-romanian-history-9789639241848","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
