The Politics of Unbelonging

'The politics of Unbelonging is a very timely and necessary intervention in the study of race, ethnicity, and notions of belonging to the state. This rigorous and captivating book captures how racialisation of Roma serves to reinforce ideas of unbelonging, helping us to understand how processes of exclusion work.'
Aidan McGarry, Loughborough University
> Zevnik and Russell provide an insight into how Roma are made to unbelong in the institutions, civil society and media representations across the EU institutions and its Member States. The book draws out how Roma agency becomes visible in campaigns for recognition of a Roma nation at the international level. Similarly, it acknowledges the significance of building coalitions with other marginalised groups and political projects to achieve political recognition and strengthen Roma's political purchase.
