Some Considerations on the Legislative Proposal Concerning the Official Name to be used in Order to designate the Roma Ethnic Community

SOME CONSIDERATIONS ON THE LEGISLATIVE PROPOSAL CONCERNING THE OFFICIAL NAME TO BE USED IN ORDER TO DESIGNATE THE ROMA ETHNIC COMMUNITY*



Mihaela Roxana Prisacariu**

Abstract

The study analyzes the new legislative proposal regarding the terminology used for the Gypsy ethnics, highlighting that the subject of the right to choose one’s ethnic name belongs only to the ethnic group itself, as an expression of the person’s right to self-determination. Any public decision disregarding this right is deemed to be rejected by the ethnic group and by the European institutions as contrary to international law and to European values, as well.

Keywords: national minority, discrimination, Roma ethnics, Gypsy, Law regarding the terminology used for the Gypsy ethnic group
