Summary: This book illustrates the history of the Gypsy/Roma issue in the wider context of Hungarian national history, relying on state policy documents.

The effects of continuities in policies toward Gypsies (e.g., continuing marginalization) are presented and interpreted, as are the results of changes in political institutions and processes. Written from an equality and human rights perspective, this book reinterprets the history of the power and social science discourse that constructed and defined the Roma.
