Rezensionen
'The literature of Gypsy Lore is being left behind as Romani Studies emerges as a discipline demanding serious attention. A proper understanding of our history, culture and (especially) current situation is relevant not only to the various Romani peoples but to the others among whom we live as well. The chapters in this book break new ground in addressing head on the challenges faced by Romanies today, and should be in the library of everyone concerned with establishing diversity and harmony in the New European societies.'

- Professor Ian F. Hancock, Director, The Romani Archives and Documentation Center (RADOC), The University of Texas at Austin, USA

'This book is an original and crucial intervention in various fields of scholarship. Decolonizing the coloniality of power experienced by Roma people should be part of the broad project of decolonizing Europe!'

- Ramon Grosfoguel, Professor of Ethnic Studies at the University of California at Berkeley, USA and Senior Research Associate, Maison des Science de l'Homme in Paris, France

'...timely and comprehensive...the volume will prove a vital resource to activists, policy-makers and academics, particularly sociologists and political scientists.' - Romani Studies

'[This book] provide[s] an exceptionally diverse picture of the contemporary discourse on those themes that impact Romani migrations' - The Vienna Review
