| Résumé: | “Roma” populations in Europe and their relationships with the Nation-State have for long been a sensitive political issue. By focusing on the “Roma sequence of 2010”, this article addresses first the political fabrication of the “Roma issue” in France. It then applies an intersectional analysis to the trajectories of social integration of the families of the Sénart Project (2000-2007). The empirical material is drawn from the documentary analysis of the Project archives and four years of ethnographical work. Three major questions are explored: What assessment do the families make of the Project? What ideal types of integration trajectory can be inferred from the case-study? What characterises each of them? |
