Rosenzweig\u2019s (2014) article focuses on the \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\twork of the two social workers Milan Grundza and Zden\u011bk Nistor. They check if \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\teverything is in order and at night, send young people back home or tell them to \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tlinger somewhere else. The peculiarity of the social work of the two officers: \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMilan and Zden\u011bk are Rroma. Their work is said to be representative for the \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tsuccessful integration of the minority in Obrnice. However, it is noticeable \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tthat Rosenzweig mentions only positive aspects and denies still existing \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tproblems. The mayor of Obrnice, Drahomira Miklo\u0161ov\u00e1, sees the reason for the \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tsuccess of her integration strategy in a policy of simultaneously promoting and \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdemanding: <em style=\"font-family: Arial;\">\u201cReceiving this award from \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tStrasbourg was a wonderful moment and gave me energy to keep on going. This has \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tconvinced me not to give into the negative voices that say that the situation \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\trequires radical solutions. For me, it is vital that nothing is freely given \u2013 \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tI always say that the rewards are only given in exchange for something else. I \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\twill help you, but only if you do something in return. If you take this \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tapproach, I think that all cities in the country could make the same progress \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t[&#8230;].\u201d<\/em> However, it remains unclear how the integration policy in Obrnice, \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tin addition to the example given, proceeds in detail.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Rosenzweig, Alexis (2014) Un prix europ\u00e9en pour \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tl&#8217;int\u00e9gration des Roms dans une commune tch\u00e8que.
