Abstract

Hate crimes are a specific form of criminal behavior in which hate towards certain groups is the main motive for their execution, that is, in which the perpetrator's prejudice of the victim's affiliation to certain collectivity and hatred towards members of the same are the basis for committing incriminated behavior (crimes). The study of the contemporary context of the position of victims of hate crimes indisputably points to the existence of different groups whose intensity of victimization and vulnerability is more pronounced, among which the Roma population is particularly distinguished. Therefore, this paper is dedicated to the Roma, analyzing their position as victims of hate crimes (starting from a general negative attitude and various forms of discrimination against members of this population to attempts to systematically destroy the Roma) while the central part of the work is dedicated to the Roma as victims of hate crimes in today's Europe - through the example of modern Italy.
