Abstract(s)
A coexistência de pessoas e grupos marcados pela diversidade étnica, social,
cultural, geográfica, religiosa e linguística é um tema que continua a gerar controvérsias
acrescidas nas sociedades hodiernas. Se pensarmos na coexistência dos ciganos nas
sociedades europeias não deixa de ser interessante verificar que a “questão cigana” é um
facto iniludível que trespassa as fronteiras dos diferentes países europeus, suscitando
controvérsias e ambivalências nas sociedades ditas multiculturais e/ou interculturais e
pautadas pelo princípio do universalismo. Apesar da feição intercultural e universalista
imprimida às políticas públicas, o não reconhecimento ou o reconhecimento incorreto do
que é ser cigano, por parte das instituições, bem como a sua invisibilidade social no espaço
público têm afetado negativamente várias dimensões da vida das pessoas ciganas. Acresce
que o universalismo das políticas sociais (dignidade igual a todos os cidadãos) não tem
surtido os efeitos desejados na redução dos níveis de pobreza, exclusão, discriminação e
racismo face aos portugueses ciganos.
Abstract: The coexistence of people and groups marked by ethnic, social, cultural, geographic, religious and linguistic diversity is a topic that continues to generate controversy in today's societies. If we think of coexistence of Roma/Gypsies in European societies it is nonetheless interesting to note that the "Roma/Gypsy issue" is an inescapable fact that pierces the borders of different European countries, raising controversies and ambivalences in multicultural and/or intercultural societies guided by the principle of universalism. Despite the intercultural and universal feature that characterizes public policies, the nonrecognition or the incorrect recognition of being a Roma/Gypsy, particularly by institutions, as well as, their social invisibility in public space have negatively affected in various dimensions of life Roma/Gypsy people. Furthermore, the universality of social policies (equal dignity to all citizens) have not had the desired effect in reducing levels of poverty, exclusion, discrimination and racism against the Portuguese Roma/Gypsies.
