<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">I GOT THIS TODAY FROM A FRIEND IN EUROPE!!</span></span></span><br/><br/><br/><br/>Anti-Rom Measures in Europe Need to be Stopped <br/>Tuesday, 24 August 2010: Rene Wadlow <br/><br/>Wandering now from land to land<br/><br/>Who is there here to feel my pain?”<br/><br/>-- Younous Emre, Thirteeth Century Turkish dervish<br/><br/>In
early August, the French Interior Minister Brice Hortefeux announced<br />
that more than 40 Gypsy camps had been dismantled around France since<br />
President Nicolas Sarkozy had called earlier this summer for a<br />
crackdown on the camps calling them “sources of illegal trafficking,<br />
profoundly shocking living standards, exploitation of children for<br />
begging, prostitution and crime.” Some 300 Roma camps not on municipal<br />
sites organized for Gypsy or “Travellers” are to be demolished and some<br />
— the criteria for expulsion is not clear — expelled mostly to Romania<br />
and Bulgaria. The political motivations of Mr. Sarkozy are clear: to<br />
pander to the anti-immigration Right — basically the voters of the<br />
National Front — who have long had an anti-immigrant platform.<br/><br/>However,
there have been anti-Rom measures in Germany where some 12,000 Rom are<br />
to be deported to Kosovo, in Italy where a “state of emergency” had<br />
been declared on the basis of fear of Rom immigrants, as well as in<br />
Belgium.<br/><br/>These measures come in the middle of a European Decade
of Roma Inclusion (2005-2015) called by European Union officials as “an<br />
unprecedented commitment by European governments to improve the<br />
socio-economic status and social inclusion of Roma” although public<br />
awareness of the Decade is probably not high.<br/><br/>There are
estimates that there are 10 to 12 million Rom living in the European<br />
Union with the largest concentration in Romania — some two million<br />
according to unofficial estimates. There are also fairly large Rom<br />
groups in the former Soviet Union, in particular the Russian<br />
Federation, Ukraine, Belarus, as well as in Turkey. Originally from<br />
India, the Rom have spread through Europe probably between the ninth<br />
and fourteenth centuries. Why they left northern India is not clear.<br />
They seemed to have been from the start a nomadic population living<br />
from handicrafts and providing music and dance to settled populations.<br />
It is only recently that some Rom intellectuals have become interested<br />
in their Indian heritage and have been making contacts with groups<br />
which still live in India and which may have had common ancestors.<br/><br/>The
Rom have been known by a host of different names and only in the last<br />
few years have started using “Rom” as a common name in order to achieve<br />
some political attention to their conditions. The Organization for<br />
Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) which created a small program<br />
in 1994 uses the term “Roma and Sinti”. In former Yugoslavia, they are<br />
often called “Egyptians” due to a myth that Rom came from Egypt rather<br />
than India. Useful ethnographic studies on the Rom are published by the<br />
Project on Ethnic Relations, Princeton.(1)<br/><br/>The Rom face a wide
range of often interrelated problems: citizenship, political<br />
participation, racially-motivated violence, poverty, unemployment, and<br />
an image which arouses ancestral fears of Gypsies. Governments and Rom<br />
NGOs need to work together to provide decent living conditions based on<br />
non-discrimination and fundamental rights.<br/><br/>A major difficulty is
that the states with large concentrations of Rom such as Romania and<br />
Bulgaria have limited financial resources, and the Rom have little<br />
political influence in order to get their share. In Western Europe, the<br />
Rom are the easily identified “tip of the iceberg” of the larger issue<br />
of migration and integration as globalization has made the barriers<br />
separating different countries ever more permeable.<br/><br/>As Hannah
Arendt has written “The individual who has lost his place in the<br />
political community risks to drop out of the boundaries of humanity.”<br />
The confrontation between nomad and sedentary peoples is an old one,<br />
always present in different forms and in different places. Compassion<br />
and political imagination are needed. Managing migration in a changing<br />
global environment is a crucial issue. The Gypsy camps are a text of a<br />
society’s ability to mediate between the universal nature of human<br />
rights and the protection of the cultural traits of a people.<br/><br/>Rene Wadlow, Representative to the UN, Geneva, Association of World Citizens.<br/><br/>Note:<br/><br/>1.
