Title BECOMING ROMA INTELLECTUAL IN EASTERN EUROPE.LIFE-STRATEGIES AND PRACTICES. CASE STUDY FROM BUDAPEST
Summary In the existing sociological and anthropological literature on Roma identity often the figure of the Roma intellectual is either missing of described as assimilated. This thesis aims to bring different prospective into discussion. By tracing the experience of a group of international group of educated Roma who live and study in Budapest this thesis attempt to show how through changing practices, lifestyle, and life strategies these Roma construct (more nuanced) alternative Roma identity that allows them a certain level of acceptance by the mainstream society and upward mobility.
