Abstract

ABSTRACT In 1959, the politics of assimilation led to the creation of a set of municipally organised camps for Roma people in the Stockholm area. The camps were to function as controlled settlements of transition for Roma families awaiting proper homes. This paper focuses on one such camp – the Skarpnäck Camp – which existed longer than anticipated, to the point that its continued operation was criticised as being inconsistent with the government’s assimilation policy. This paper represents an analysis of historical archaeological fieldwork at the former Skarpnäck Camp in southern Stockholm and is based upon interviews conducted with former inhabitants of and visitors to the camp. It uncovers aspects of Roma history on the margins of Swedish society and how marginalisation of the Roma group was given physical form in the creation of sanctioned camps.

生活在边缘：瑞典罗姆人营地的考古

摘要1959年，同化政治导致斯德哥尔摩地区建立了一套由市政组织的罗姆人营地。这些营地将作为等待适当住房的罗姆人家庭的过渡控制定居点。本文关注的是这样一个营地——Skarpnäck营地——它的存在时间比预期的要长，以至于它的持续运作被批评为不符合政府的同化政策。本文分析了斯德哥尔摩南部前Skarpnäck营地的历史考古实地调查，并基于对营地前居民和游客的采访。它揭示了瑞典社会边缘的罗姆人历史的各个方面，以及在建立受制裁的营地时，罗姆人群体的边缘化是如何形成的。
