Cultural Institutions as a Combat Sport. Reflections on the European Roma Institute
Journal Title: The Age of Human Rights Journal - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 7
Abstract
This article aims at problematizing the relation between identity recognition, economic redistribution, and political representation in the debate around Roma inclusion in contemporary Europe. Given that culture has increasingly become politicized, by analyzing the emergence of the European Roma Institute for Arts and Culture I reflect on the political and economic potential and drawbacks that cultural identity holds in a European society in which capitalism has turned into a cultural trait.
