COMMENTS ON THIS DOCUMENT:

Migration of Roma people from eastern european countries brought a legislative complication to other cetizensof those countries. Authors of the book offer some different perspective on this phenomenon. Analyse the situation of Roma living in isolated excluded communities, many of them under the line of official poverty. In this situation many of them decide to emigrate the country and aply for asylum – better living conditions in some more developped EU countries. However such a strategy uses liberal EU asylum legislation. Authors note that the attitude of major poppulation is formed by the Picture showed in media which is not objective and positive.
