Abstract

Abstract: This article aims to reveal the multidimensional aspects of social exclusion of Roma in Turkey, which manifests itself in the stigmatized space of Roma neighborhood. In our analysis, we do not depict ‘Roma’ distinctively as an ethnic category but as a ‘low status’ in the society that is embedded in the stigmatized places. We argue that those from a Roma neighborhood hold a common “stigmatized spatial identity”, regardless of their ethnicity, which determines the processes of poverty and social exclusion in different spheres of life. In order to unfold the process of social exclusion that we refer to as the “Romanization of poverty”, our study provides analysis under the analytical category of spatial stigmatization intertwined with insecure livelihood.

贫困的罗马化：土耳其罗姆人社区的空间污名化

摘要：本文旨在揭示土耳其罗姆人社会排斥的多维性，这种排斥表现在罗姆人社区的污名化空间中。在我们的分析中，我们并没有将“罗姆人”明确地描述为一个种族类别，而是将其描述为嵌入污名化地区的社会中的“低地位”。我们认为，罗姆人社区的人拥有一种共同的“污名化的空间身份”，无论他们的种族如何，这决定了不同生活领域的贫困和社会排斥过程。为了展开我们称之为“贫困罗马化”的社会排斥过程，我们的研究在与不安全的生计交织在一起的空间污名化的分析类别下进行了分析。

期刊介绍： Founded in 1888, the Journal of the Gypsy Lore Society was published in four series up to 1982. In 2000, the journal became Romani Studies. On behalf of the Gypsy Lore Society, Romani Studies features articles on many different communities which, regardless of their origins and self-appellations in various languages, have been referred to in English as Gypsies. These communities include the descendants of migrants from the Indian subcontinent which have been considered as falling into three large subdivisions, Dom, Lom, and Rom. The field has also included communities of other origins which practice, or in the past have practiced, a specific type of service nomadism. The journal publishes articles in history, anthropology, ethnography, sociology, linguistics, art, literature, folklore and music, as well as reviews of books and audiovisual materials.
