Abstract

This article analyses the use of the legal notion of discrimination in relation to the Roma. A definite shift in the discourse of Roma issues is identified which, thanks to the leading role of the European Roma Rights Centre, resulted in the prevalent use of the discrimination paradigm. Focusing on the case law of the European Court of Human Rights, I also explore the effects of this categorization of speech on the legal protection for the Roma. In particular, I look at the benefits and limitations of using the discrimination paradigm in relation to the legal protection of the Roma.
