Slovakia: Osada and Roma Criminality

Published by:

A discussion with the cultural anthropologist Alexander Mušinka. He is the author of a study on all the Osada (Roma settlements) in Slovakia, lived in one during his research, and is highly critical of the measures proposed by the Slovak Government on “Roma Criminality”.
He says there is no such thing, and we agree!
Look at the map of the settlements and read his book.
