ABSTRACT

The issue of otherness in the social construction of ethnicities and rural multiculturalism has long attracted the attention of scholars. By following a postcolonial background, this paper investigates the social construction of Roma as ‘other’ in a multicultural landscape (the Romania-Serbia border) using interviews with participants of different ethnic groups. This paper addresses the following questions: (i) Is the Roma population in this area completely spatially segregated? (ii) How do different kinds of prejudice against Roma operate within this multicultural context? (iii) How does discrimination against the Roma interface with power relations, in particular political power in the area? The findings indicate that, alongside ethno-nationalist racism, Roma face prejudice from apparently more ‘progressive’ groups, who accept multiculturalism, yet blame the Roma for their own disadvantaged social and economic position on the grounds of a failure to integrate that is pictured as ‘backward’.

在多民族农村社区中表达“差异性”:罗姆人与非罗姆人在东欧-中欧边境的遭遇

摘要

民族与乡村多元文化社会建构中的他者性问题,长期以来一直受到学者们的关注。通过遵循后殖民背景,本文通过对不同种族群体参与者的访谈,调查了在多元文化景观(罗马尼亚-塞尔维亚边境)中将罗姆人社会建构为“他者”的情况。本文解决以下问题:(i) 该地区的罗姆人是否在空间上完全隔离?(ii) 在这种多元文化背景下,对罗姆人的各种偏见如何运作?(iii) 对罗姆人的歧视如何影响权力关系,尤其是该地区的政治权力?调查结果表明,除了种族民族主义种族主义之外,罗姆人还面临来自显然更“进步”的群体的偏见,这些群体接受多元文化主义,
