| Title | Violent Attacks against Roma by Right-Wing Radical Groups in Hungary and Ukraine |
| Summary | Right-wing ideology is a movement based on the belief in the superiority of some individuals and groups as well as the inferiority of others. This ideology caused a number of violent attacks against Roma in Hungary in 2008-2009 and in Ukraine in 2018. Members of right-wing movements attacked Roma settlements, destroying houses, injuring and killing people. The two main focuses of the paper are: to discuss the social and political pre-conditions and the general societal environments in which the attacks were committed, and to outline the main human rights violations committed by the states while responding (or not responding) to the attacks. |
