In this sweeping international perspective on reparations, Time for Reparations makes the case that past state injustice-be it slavery or colonization, forced sterilization or widespread atrocities-has enduring consequences that generate ongoing harm, which needs to be addressed as a matter of justice and equity.Time for Reparations provides a wealth of detailed and diverse examples of state injustice, from enslavement of African Americans in the United States and Roma in Romania to colonial exploitation and brutality in Guatemala, Algeria, Indonesia, Jamaica, and Guadeloupe. From many vantage points, contributing authors discuss different reparative strategies and the impact they would have on the lives of survivor or descent communities.One of the strengths of this book is its interdisciplinary perspective-contributors are historians, anthropologists, human rights lawyers, sociologists, and political scientists. Many of the authors are both scholars and advocates, actively involved in one capacity or another in the struggles for reparations they describe. The book therefore has a broad and inclusive scope, aided by an accessible and cogent writing style. It appeals to scholars, students, advocates and others concerned about addressing some of the most profound and enduring injustices of our time.

Realizing Roma Rights investigates anti-Roma racism and documents a growing Roma-led political movement engaged in building a more inclusive and just Europe. The book brings to the forefront voices of leading and emerging Romani scholars, from established human rights experts to policy and advocacy leaders with deep experience.Realizing Roma Rights offers detailed accounts of anti-Roma racism, political and diplomatic narratives chronicling the development of European and American policy, and critical examination of Roma-related discourse and policies in contemporary Europe. It also investigates the complex role of the European Union as a driver of progressive change and a flawed implementer of fundamental rights.This book will provide a useful source for those interested in the dynamics of contemporary stigma and discrimination, the enduring challenges of mobilizing within severely disempowered communities, and the complexities of regional and transnational human rights mechanisms. Spanning as it does a broad disciplinary range that encompasses law, history, sociology, political theory, critical race theory, human rights, organization theory, and education, Realizing Roma Rights is a useful teaching tool for interdisciplinary courses on human rights, racism and xenophobia, political theory, European studies, and minority issues.Contributors: Jacqueline Bhabha, James A. Goldston, Will Guy, Fernando MacÍas, David Mark, Teresa SordÉ-MartÍ, Margareta Matache, David Meyer, Andrzej Mirga, KÁlmÁn Mizsei, Krista Oehlke, Alexandra Oprea, Elena Rozzi, Erika Schlager, Michael Uyehara, Peter Vermeersch.

Racism, Memory, and Erasure of the Roma People | The Acceptable Racism in Europe | Margareta Matache on Jay Shapiro's Dilemma PodcastAnti-Roma racism, one of Europe's oldest and most enduring racisms, has been neglected in mainstream theories and discourse. This book situates anti-Roma racism within national and intra-continental histories and global scholarship, exploring its specific and universal underpinnings and manifestations and its interconnectedness with other systems of oppression.The Permanence of Anti-Roma Racism offers a theoretical perspective on the roots of anti-Roma racism, tracing its genesis in the system of racialized slavery in the principalities of Molvoda and Wallachia and the politics of killings, expulsions, and entry bans across Europe in the late Middle Ages. Furthermore, employing theoretical frameworks of structural oppressions, anti-colonial and decolonial thought, racialization, and intersectionality, this book analyzes how deep historical legacies continue to shape anti-Roma racism as an enduring, structural form of oppression.This scholarly work is essential for policymakers, practitioners, scholars, and students working on the sociology of racialization, global race and structural racisms, and European history. It defines, categorizes, and unpacks the processes and mechanisms of racialization and anti-Roma racism, shedding light on a system of oppression too often left unspoken.Erratum: The photograph labeled Tismana Monastery (p. 75) depicts Vodita Monastery. This correction couldn't be resolved during production, but it will be included in future printings and translations.
