Romani Women At The Edge Of Neoliberal Europe eBook

Romani women at the edge of neoliberal Europe explores how Romani women navigate racialized poverty, gendered inequality, and neoliberal restructuring across Europe. Based on long-term ethnographic research, it argues that EU inclusion frameworks - despite promises of emancipation - often reproduce structural violence, limiting political, social, and economic possibilities. Through case studies from Hungary and beyond, the book examines paradoxes of activism, strategies of survival, and the emotional and political labor required in hostile institutional landscapes. It highlights how women transform marginality into resistance and solidarity, calling for a reimagined vision of inclusion grounded in justice and lived realities.
