Szakítópróba -- Hatékony jogi fellépés a gyerekek családból való diszkriminatív kiemelésével szemben

Abstract

Körtvélyesi studies the overrepresentation of Roma children among those forcibly removed from their families, in light of global trends showing similar disparities among minority children. The data provide prima facie evidence of discrimination, though it remains debated whether these are more direct acts of discrimination by family services or rather the results of indirect and systemic discrimination, where minority status and deprivation are further sanctioned. The article contends that European anti-discrimination law can cover both types of discrimination, and existing case law makes strategic litigation a powerful tool for establishing an official account of the facts, raising awareness of this particularly cruel violation, providing effective remedies, and making the case for policy changes that can prevent further disproportionate removal of Romani children from their families.
