Resumo(s)
The main aim of this article is to offer a comprehensive perspective
to a better understanding of the actual situation of Portuguese
Ciganos.1 In Portugal, the lack of recognition of Ciganos (Roma)
and the sometimes incorrect ‘knowledge’ about them which are
reflected in images that are limitative and distorted, suggest
inferiority and are full of disdain, all of which negatively affects
and restricts the life of Ciganos persons. This article intends to
presents some of the main results of two qualitative studies
conducted between 2004–2010, one of which sought to get to
know Ciganos’ representations of domains, practices and
situations perceived as discriminatory, while the other looked at
the social integration paths of these persons. These studies
produce new knowledge about both individual academic and
occupational trajectories, and some of the main intergenerational
changes that have occurred among Portuguese Ciganos. In
addition, the article offers a new view about some social policies
in Portugal and its impacts on Ciganos singularities. In fact, it’s
possible to conclude that the universalism of the national social
policies has not produced the desired effects in terms of a
reduction in levels of poverty, exclusion, discrimination among
Portuguese Ciganos.
