“…This has much to do with the fear of a more powerful overlap between Roma identity and socio-economic marginalization: having worked for decades toward empowering and promoting the image of Spanish Gitanos in their own country, Gitano organizations now fear that the hostility towards Eastern European Roma will fall upon them. As other authors have shown, both in Spain (Bereményi and Carrasco 2014;Laparra and Macías León 2009) and elsewhere (Roman 2014) similarities between 'old' and 'new' Roma tend to create major differentiation markers rather than foster empathy or inter-ethnic solidarity. It seems fair to expect that the presence of Roma immigrants is dreaded by 'old' Roma because it might harm the reputation of the whole ethnic community by reinforcing the stereotyped descriptions of Gitanos as people que estafa u obra con engaño 17 .…”

“…In the 1990s, Romania's transition from a planned economy to a market economy had a significant social effect on the population and the Roma ethnic minority. During this period of modernization and integration into market economies, the Roma were especially at risk in these origin communities, as they were primarily affected by the rise in unemployment and decreased social benefits, which appeared to reverse the slow integration they had been experiencing under the previous stage (Laparra and Macias 2009).…”

“…Spain, Hungary, and Bulgaria are other European countries with a sizable Roma population. The enlargement process of the EU towards Eastern European countries that took place in 2004 and 2007 increased the Roma population from 1.7 million (EU-15) to 6 million (EU-27) (Laparra and Macias 2009).

It should be noted that several studies focused explicitly on Romania and Spain as reference countries (Anghel & Fosztó, 2022;Laparra & Macías, 2009). Most of the qualitative studies dealt with issues related to community and mobility.…”
