In a Belgrade suburb, next to a refugee centre, where \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\teven two decades after the war, refugees from Croatia, Bosnia, and Kosovo are \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tliving together with other asylum seekers, there is a Rroma camp. Kameraj Sajin \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tlives there with his family. He is one of those who is directly affected by the \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tnew status of Serbia of \u201csafe country of origin\u201d. Although the Sajins are not persecuted, \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthey are affected by severe poverty and exclusion: <em>\u201cEight months the family spent in Steinfurt, this year \u201cthree months \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tand eleven days.\u201d A few weeks ago, they were deported to Serbia. The stay was \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\u201creally nice\u201d tells Sajin. After the family had moved between several asylum \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\thomes, they received an apartment and around 1,200 Euros a month. At Caritas \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthey could buy clothing and food for two Euros. The daughter went to school, \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthe two sons to the playschool. \u201cNot like here\u201d, says Sajin [&#8230;]. Here, in \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKrnjaca, his daughter has to go to evening school because, she lost her place \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tin the regular primary school and he has no confirmation that she attended a \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tGerman school. For the boys, there is no kindergarten, and from the state he \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tgets only 10,000 dinars (around 85 Euros) of child benefit.\u201d <\/em>This article \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\taddresses the important question of whether one should not recognise poverty \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tand exclusion as legitimate reasons for asylum, and not only political \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tpersecution. It must also be added that Rroma in South Eastern Europe, even \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthough many are affected by severe poverty, are not living exclusively in \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tslums. Rroma, especially in the former states of Yugoslavia, belong to all social \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tclasses, but are usually only perceived as Rroma if they conform to the \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tstereotypes of the minority. But there are also Rroma doctors, policemen, \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tteachers, etc., which are fully integrated, and have been so for generations.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Ivanji, Andrej (2014) An einem gottverlassenen \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tOrt.
