Holocaust commemoration in Romania: Roma and the contested politics of memory and memorialization

Explores the representation of the Holocaust and, in particular, Roma victims in the dominant historical narrative and the Holocaust memorial. Delves into discourses around this monument, which feed into a larger dialogue of victim recognition and contested national narratives about the Holocaust. Highlights the construction and contestation of the Holocaust memorial, considering in particular the paradox of Roma victims and suggesting that Roma are simultaneously represented, unrepresented and misrepresented in the historical story and memorial of the Holocaust in Romania.
