As social and economic injustice spreads from the historically marginalized to the “99 per cent” – both symbolically and realistically – that which (seemingly) concerned the few now openly confronts the majority. This publication inquires into the contemporary moment through the proposition of the “Roma model” of existence as it resonates within artistic practice and civic imagination. By reversing outsider status, can we, with the emblematic claim that we are all Roma, invoke alternate futures? Artists, theorists and activists of both Roma and non-Roma origin speculate upon the possibilities in this selection of new and anthologized texts. Includes contributions by Zygmunt Bauman, Ethel Brooks, Sanja Iveković and Salman Rushdie, among others.
