Framing “The Gypsy Problem”: Populist Electoral Use of Romaphobia in Italy (2014–2019)
social sciences $€ £ ¥ Article Framing “The Gypsy Problem”: Populist Electoral Use of Romaphobia in Italy (2014–2019) Laura Cervi * and Santiago Tejedor Department of Journalism and Communication Sciences, Autonomous University of Barcelona, Campus de la UAB, Plaça Cívica, 08193 Bellaterra, Barcelona, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 12 May 2020; Accepted: 12 June 2020; Published: 17 June 2020 Abstract: Xenophobic arguments have long been at the center of the political discourse of the Lega party in Italy, nonetheless Matteo Salvini, the new leader, capitalizing on diffused Romaphobia, placed Roma people at the center of his political discourse, institutionalizing the “Camp visit” as an electoral event. Through the analysis of eight consecutive electoral campaigns, in a six year period, mixing computer-based quantitative and qualitative content analysis and framing analysis, this study aims to display how Roma communities are portrayed in Matteo Salvini’s discourse. The study describes how “Gypsies” are framed as a threat to society and how the proposed solution—a bulldozer to raze all of the camps to the ground—is presented as the only option. The paper concludes that representing Roma as an “enemy” that “lives among us”, proves to be the ideal tool to strengthen the “us versus them” tension, characteristic of populist discourse. Keywords: populism; Romaphobia; far right parties; political discourse 1. Introduction Defining Roma is challenging. A variety of understandings and definitions, and multiple societal and political representations, exist about “who the Roma are” (Magazzini and Piemontese 2019). The Council of Europe, in an effort to harmonize the terminology used in its political documents, apply “Roma”—first chosen at the inaugural World Romani Congress held in London in 1971—as an umbrella term that includes “Roma, Sinti, Travellers, Ashkali, Manush, Jenische, Kaldaresh and Kalé” and covers the wide diversity of the groups concerned, “including persons who identify themselves as Gypsies” (2012). -

Levels of Homophobia
Levels of Homophobia Negative Positive Repulsion Pity Tolerance Acceptance Support Admiration Appreciation Nurturance Negative Levels: Repulsion: Homosexuality is seen as “a crime against nature.” Homosexual people are sick, crazy, sinful, immoral, wicket, etc. Anything is justified to change them, it: prison, hospitalization, from behavior therapy to shock treatment. Pity: Heterosexual chauvinism. Heterosexuality is more mature and certainly to be preferred. Any possibility of being straight should be reinforced and those who seem to be “born that way” should be pitied. Tolerance: Homosexuality is just a phase of adolescent development that many people go through and ‘grow out of’. Thus lesbians, gays and bisexuals are less mature than heterosexual people and should not be put in positions of authority because they are still working on adolescent behaviors. Acceptance: Still implies that there is something that must be accepted. Characterized by such statements as ‘you’re not gay to me, you’re just a person’. Denies the social and legal realities, while ignoring the pain of invisibility and the stress of closeted behavior. Positive Levels: Support: Work to safeguard the rights of LGBT people. May be uncomfortable themselves, but are aware of the social climate and irrational unfairness. Admiration: Acknowledges that being LGBT in our society takes strength. Such people are willing to truly look at themselves and work on their own homophobic attitudes. Appreciation: Values the diversity of people and sees LGBT people as a valid part of diversity. These people are willing to combat homophobia in themselves and others. Nurturance: Assumes that LGBT people are indispensable to society. They view all homosexual people with genuine affection and delight and are willing to be open and public advocates. -

Volume 11, No. 2 Mexican-American Mobility: Incorporation or 4th Generation Decline? By Susan K. Brown Questions about the numbers and characteristics of immigrants and their impact in the United States have constituted the fodder of public policy debates for more than 40 years. A particularly hot-button issue has involved perceptions of how successfully Mexican immigrants are being incorporated, for several reasons beyond the sheer size of the group. First, many enter without authorization and thus attract negative attention. Second, many are such recent arrivals that judgments about their experi- ence often rely on just a few years’ data and thus underestimate how the groups will eventually fare. Third, pessimistic commentaries by prominent scholars like Huntington (2004) claim that Mexican-origin persons have neither the desire nor ability to be- come incorporated in the United States. This note reports some preliminary results from my research relevant to the debate on the incorporation of those of Mexican origin. The data come from the recently finished survey on Intergenerational Immigrant Mobility in Metropolitan Los Angeles (IIMMLA). While the survey reached the young adult children of immigrants of many nationalities, it substantially oversampled those of Mexican origin by including respondents from this group who came not only from the 1.5 or second generations, but also from the immigrant, third, and fourth or higher generations. On a variety of indicators, the data show steady upward mobil- ity from the first through the third generations. Then the cross- generation pattern deviates from what straight-line assimilation would expect. The fourth or later generation group does not appear to be faring as well as the third. -

Suffering, Pity and Friendship: An Aristotelian Reading of Book 24 of Homer’s Iliad Marjolein Oele University of San Francisco [email protected] Book 24 of Homer’s Iliad presents us with one of the most beautiful and chilling scenes of the epic: the scene where Achilles and Priam directly face one another at the point when the suffering (pathos) of each seems to have reached its pinnacle. Achilles’ suffering is centered on the loss of his best friend Patroclus, while the suffering of Priam – although long in the making due to the attack on his city and his family – has reached a new level of despair with the loss of his dearest son Hector. -
Ambivalent Prejudice Toward Immigrants: the Role of Social Contact and Ethnic Origin
Ambivalent Prejudice toward Immigrants: The Role of Social Contact and Ethnic Origin Hisako Matsuo, Kevin McIntyre, Ajlina Karamehic-Muratovic, Wai Hsien Cheah, Lisa Willoughby, & John Clements 1 Emma Lazarus’ famous poem engraved at the base of the Statue of Liberty. Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore --Emma Lazarus, “The New Colossus” 2 Immigrants to the US in the past (1880-) Irish and Italians Prejudice and discrimination toward Catholics Chinese and Japanese Chinese Exclusion Act, Alien Land Act Japanese internment during WWII 3 WWII through 1970’s: A positive environment with a demand for laborers. Immigrants were welcomed. 1970-1990: Oil crisis, followed by economic globalization. Immigrants were seen as threat to US economy. e.g. Killing of Vincent Chen 4 1990-2000: Immigrants from Eastern Europe after the break down of the former Soviet Union 2001- : Immigrants from Middle East 5 Ambivalent Attitude toward Immigrants The sympathy and antipathy that individuals express toward these groups is hypothesized to be due to two strong, but conflicting American values (Biernat, et al., 1996; Katz & Haas, 1988). Egalitarianism and Protestant Work Ethic 6 Americans value egalitarianism, characterized by social equality, social justice, and concern for others in need. Americans also value the Protestant Work Ethic (PWE), an individualistic belief in hard work, self-discipline, and individual achievement. e.g. Protestant Work Ethic and Development of Capitalism (Max Weber) 7 Egalitarianism is negatively associated with all forms of prejudice, whereas adherence to the PWE is positively associated with prejudice toward those outgroups viewed to violate the PWE (Biernat et al.1996) . -
