Evaluation indicated that the ESF structure in Slovakia possessed no systematic instrument for steering projects aimed at Roma to the regions or municipalities that are most in need of support. Using spending per Roma inhabitant as an indicator, the investments were highest in some districts of western Slovakia, and the chances to benefit from ESF support positively correlated with the size of the municipality – the smaller it was, the less likely it was to be targeted by ESF funding. The ESF programme in Slovakia put particular emphasis on the inclusion of Roma in the labour market, but field research in the Prešov region suggested that only a very small number of the intended Roma beneficiaries ended up employed in the formal labour market.

It is sociographic detailed mapping of Roma communities in Slovakia, unique by their comprehensiveness at settlement levet.The research did not examine the number of people declaring themselves as the Roma, but occurrence, location and nature of communities that are perceived as the Roma by their neighbourhood (the majority). In this context, so-called attributed or imputed ethnicity was surveyed. The way of such data examination was carried out through information obtained primarily from the representatives of the territorial units (municipality or town). From a methodological point of view, it was a qualified estimate. Mušinka A., Škobla D., Hurrle J., Matlovičová K., Kling J. (2014): Atlas rómskych komunít na Slovensku 2013. Bratislava, UNDP, 2014.

Providing a comparative view of key aspects of migration and integration reality in the countries concerned, the article puts the migration policies of the Czech Republic and Poland into a wider context in order to shed some light on the question whether Czech and Polish policy makers have been able to use the opportunity to learn from the experiences of others. The article further provides an overview of the methodological experiences of the Czech Republic, Sweden and Poland, including highlights for the assessment of migration an...

The paper first offers an overview of the genesis of the term within the development of Czech public policy towards Roma. In its conceptual part, it discusses its relation to theoretical concepts of ghetto and social exclusion. An empirical study of four localities, which were denoted as socially excluded, reveals a surprisingly great variety of conditions within these places. The authors argue that there is a tendency of an inflationary use of this term, which is guided by the presence of Roma while often abstracting from the issue of social exclusion.

The research combines both statistical data analysis and qualitative fieldwork in municipalities. The results and the key findings served not only as a feedback for the past programmes but also initiated a set of policy recommendations, which have been used for designing the field social work programmes up to the year 2020.
