Unconventional Topics. The Presence and Activities of the Carpathian Roma in the Construction of Nowa Huta Based on the Book Titled “Nowa Huta’s Chronicle” (Kronika Nowej Huty), Analysis of the Contents of the Newspaper ‘Budujemy Socjalizm’ from 1950

Summary/Abstract: An article based on qualitative and visual analysis of the newspaper “We Build Socialism” from 1950–1956 presents the little-known participation of the Carpathian Roma in constructing the socialist city of Nowa Huta near Kraków. The deconstruction of the time-colonial perspective leads to the conclusion that the Roma community was described in objectified and racial terms, highlighting its antisocial traits, except for a few men and women who were attributed with the ideological identity of the socialist worker, an exemplary worker fulfilling the economic plan of the People’s Republic of Poland through above-average effort.
