Based on long-term ethnographic research in one eastern Slovak village, this paper explores the complex issue of the role of place in the (self-)identification of Roma. Applying both a diachronic and a synchronic perspective, the author focuses on the mechanisms of the territorialisation of the Roma that led to the preservation of the historical continuity of the Romani settlement and to its territorial stigmatisation. He shows how local identification and position in the residential structure of the village studied here translated into a more enduring differentiation among Roma themselves. The author argues that crucial to understanding this process is the racialised category of 'Gypsyness', through which the Roma were singled out as 'less local'. 'Gypsyness' was also strongly associated with the space of the settlement and at the same time served as a generally accepted reason for its very existence. By setting up their own strategy of social mobility and striving to achieve full-fledged local belonging, the Roma, to a large extent, subscribed to the dominant logic of 'Gypsyness' and thus reproduced it, but they also transformed some of its characteristics, integrating it into their own understanding of their sociability in an environment of historically rooted non-Romani dominance.

This article is based on long-term field research in an Eastern Slovak Romani settlement and an English town to which Roma migrated from the settlement. The paper attempts to disrupt the bipolar approach toward the migration of Roma to England and, at the same time, to point out the transnational interconnectedness of the Romani community and the replication of inter-group boundary patterns. This dynamic approach to migration allows the authors to also consider a different phenomenon, namely, the religious conversion of Roma to Pentecostal churches. This leads to an observation of parallels in the narratives of conversion and migration, which are both based on a dichotomy of “new” and “old”, and inclusion of the phenomenon of religious conversion in the analysis of migration alongside the highlighting of transnational social networks, the acquiring of secondary social bonds, and the strengthening of local inter-group boundaries.

Článek je založen na dlouhodobém terénním výzkumu v romské osadě na východním Slovensku a v anglickém městě, do kterého Romové z této osady migrovali. Text se snaží o narušení bipolárního vnímání migrace Romů do Anglie, zároveň chce poukázat na transnacionální provázanost romské komunity a replikaci vzorců meziskupinových hranic. V takovémto dynamickém pojetí migrace autoři zohledňují jiný fenomén, a to konverzi Romů k letničním církvím. To vede ke sledování paralel konverzních a migračních narativů, které jsou založeny na dichotomii „starého“ a „nového“, zahrnutí fenoménu náboženské konverze do analýzy migrace a současně zvýraznění transnacionálních sociálních sítí, nabývání sekundárních sociálních vazeb a posilování lokálních skupinových hranic.
