Each element of art (music, dancing as a system of signs may change its code, as the same symbols may be conveyed in another semiotic code, for example: a system of sounds in kinetic-spatial exemplification. Listening to music (acoustic signs) is in this play transcoded into kinetic-bodily signs. Experiencing oneself by means of movement, creating an individual story about oneself through gesture activates the subconscious, facilitates visualizing past experiences, feeling them again, and analyzing. The present study fo- cuses on the connection between the classes devoted to kinesthetic visualization and the motoric behaviour presented by a child displaying the level of its creativity. The text presents individualizing experimental tests carried out in a group of five-year-old children. Słowa kluczowe: ekspresja, teatr ruchu w edukacji przedszkolnej, dywergencja Keywords: expression, theatre of movement in pre-school education, divergence 1. Istota integralności. Muzyka i ruch Analizując rozmaite możliwości wsparcia rozwoju przez działanie sztuką i przez sztukę chciałabym zwrócić uwagę na jedną z formuł jej zastosowania, czyli na teatralizację opar- tą na ucieleśnieniu, wskazując walory takiego tworzenia sztuki dla edukacji dziecka. Idąc dalej, możemy odwołać się do anglosaskiej tradycji arteterapii, ściśle osadzającej ją w za- sadach wychowania przez sztukę, która jest traktowana jak czynnik oddziałujący na całą osobowość (Szulc 2010: 22). W niej tkwią możliwości terapii, ale i transgresji potencjału dziecka. Poszukiwać przeto będziemy strategii uruchamiającej ekspresję twórczą przez ciało, lecz równocześnie zmierzającej do integralnego uwydatniania (i wykraczania poza) możliwości wychowanka w materii sztuki. Tak sięgniemy do swoistej fuzji teatru ciała, muzyki i pedagogiki integralnej (Kielar 2012: 160–161). Poszukując miejsca wsparcia rozwoju dziecka i arteterapii poprzez teatr ciała, roz- pocznijmy od ustaleń pozwalających ulokować integralność w kategoriach edukacyjnych. Rozważając koncepcję pedagogiki integralnej, zupełnie naturalnie powracamy do idei 8 Katarzyna Krasoń W. Okonia (1996), która zakłada nauczanie-uczenie się wielostronne, uruchamiające

Box 906/93, Hungary Phone: (36-1) 413-2200; Fax: (36-1) 413-2201 E-mail: [email protected] http://errc.org Written Comments of the European Roma Rights Centre Concerning the Russian Federation for Consideration by the United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination at its 73rd Session, 28 July -15 August 2008 1. Introduction 1.1. The European Roma Rights Centre (“the ERRC”) respectfully submits written comments concerning the Russian Federation for consideration by the Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (“the Committee”) at its 73rd session, 28 July – 15 August 2008. The ERRC is an international public interest law organisation engaging in activities aimed at combating anti-Romani racism and human rights abuse of Roma, in particular strategic litigation, international advocacy, research and policy development, and training of Romani activists. 1.2. The ERRC has been monitoring Roma rights in Russia since 2000, revealing an alarming pattern of human rights abuse of Roma and other people perceived as "Gypsies".1 Despite the rich ethnic diversity of a country that is home to approximately 160 ethnic groups or nationalities, it is important to single out Roma and assess their human rights situation, because not all minority groups in Russia are the object of egregious racist treatment and hate crime. Several ethnic/national communities are particularly vulnerable on the whole territory of the state, wherever they happen to be. The infamous label “person of Caucasian nationality “ applied by the Russian authorities to refer to a range of people such as Chechens, Ingushetians, Ossetians, Dagestanis, Georgians, Azeris, etc.

In the last quarter of a century, instead of these names, a new common designation has been established in the region’s public discourse, based on their self-appellation “Roma”. The processes of labelling and imposition of the new name on these communities did not stop in this region, and the label “Roma” is increasingly spreading in the remaining parts of Europe and even beyond. This process of imposing “from above” of a “politically correct” labelling, however, has led to, for some perhaps unexpectedly, to others predictably, an impact on the field. Some local communities labelled today “Roma” started to demonstrate publicly their reluctance to comply with the designation imposed on them from the “outside”. The proposed article will reveal the historical sources of labelling of these communities and main dimensions of these contradictory processes.

  • Europe's Poverty-Stricken Roma Communities
    EUROPE’S POVERTY-STRICKEN ROMA COMMUNITIES Askold Krushelnyck The next few years will be crucial for the Roma people. There are at least 6 million Roma in Europe with the majority in former communist countries, several of which joined the European Union (EU) in May 2004. Roma people hope that the tolerance espoused by the EU will break a centuries-long cycle of prejudice and persecution. Romania, scheduled to join the EU in 2007, has Europe’s largest Roma population of around 2million people. But the name Roma is not derived from Romania, where they were enslaved until 1864. The Nazis slaughtered between 500,000 and 1.5 million Roma in a little known holocaust. The Roma, or Romani (meaning ‘man’ or ’people’), have also been called Gypsies, Tsigani, Tzigane, Ciganoand Zigeuner, which most of them consider derogatory terms. Many identify themselves by their tribes and groups, which include the Kalderash, Machavaya, Lovari, Churari, Romanichal, Gitanoes, Kalo, Sinti, Rudari, Manush, Boyash, Ungaritza, Luri, Bashaldé, Romungroand Xoraxai. There is no universal Roma culture, although there are attributes common to all Roma: Roma populations have the poorest education, health and employment opportunities, and the highest rates of imprisonment and welfare dependency. They have the lowest life expectancy levels of all Europeans. They also have the highest birthrate, giving credibility to evidence that authorities in one Central European country were recently pressuring Roma women to undergo sterilization. The Roma still have a reputation as nomadic peoples; but the nomadic lifestyle owed as much to Roma people being banned from entering towns as to any desire to wander.

In Canada, immigration and refugee policies have increasingly dismissed Roma as illegitimate or ‘bogus’ refugee claimants, in large part because they come from ‘safe’ European countries.

  • Contribution Au Glossaire Sur Les Roms
    1 HDIM.IO/218/07 27 September 2007 ORIGINAL: English Roma and Travellers Glossary Compiled by Claire PEDOTTI (French Translation Department) and Michaël GUET (DGIII Roma and Travellers Division) in consultation with the English and French Translation Departments and Aurora AILINCAI (DGIV Project «Schooling for Roma Children in Europe»). Kindly translated into English by Vincent NASH (English Translation Department). General comments: The many different terms found in Council of Europe texts and on Council websites make harmonisation of the Organisation’s usage essential. That is the purpose of this glossary, which will be up-dated regularly . This glossary reflects the current consensus. Following its suggestions is thus strongly recommended (if in doubt, use the underlined term). Last update : 11 December 2006 2 The terminology used by the Council of Europe (CoE) has varied considerably since the early 1970s : «Gypsies and other travellers»1, «nomads»2, « populations of nomadic origin»3, «Gypsies»4, «Rroma (Gypsies)»5, «Roma»6, « Roma/Gypsies»7, «Roma/Gypsies and Travellers»8, « Roms et Gens du voyage »9. Some of our decisions on terminology are based on the conclusions of a seminar held at the Council of Europe in September 2003 on «The cultural identities of Roma, Gypsies, Travellers and related groups in Europe», which was attended by representatives of the various groups in Europe (Roma, Sinti, Kale, Romanichals, Boyash, Ashkali, Egyptians, Yenish, Travellers, etc.) and of various international organisations (OSCE-ODIHR, European Commission, UNHCR and others). The question’s complexity has obliged us to lay down a number of linguistic principles, which may seem a little arbitrary.
