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.

French Chronicle …

Published by:

Not many news in France this week. In Nantes, supporters of squatters clashed with the police and were removed from their protest site. In Nantes, also, a Rom was sentenced to a 4 months suspended jail sentence for his illegal taping of power that resulted in a huge fire burning over 100 camping cars and rental cars. Of course, Breizh info finds the sentence to “lenient”. Another fire in the North, in a garage forced the evacuation of a Roma camp. Near Paris, in both Sarcelles and Choisy le Roi, a large amount of garbage was retrieved from Roma camping sites. Finally, two criminal affairs, one on the abduction of a pet (and a ransom of 250 EUR paid) and one about a jewellery thief in Carcassonne.
