It is a forgotten part of history that between the late 19th and late 20th centuries more than 20 urban memory sites were dedicated in Hungary to prominent persons of Romani ethnicity, a minority group that faces often extreme discrimination. This research seeks to examine how these sites were implicated in the spatial control of Romani communities by dominant society. Combining critical analysis and historical research, it will show how the everyday life and cultural-political activism of the Roma were kept away from urban centres, sometimes aided by hegemonic strategies of pluralizing the urban heritage environment.Following the histories of 10-15 of such sites to the present, this research will reconstruct the development of two types of largely invisible urban geographies in Hungary and their interrelations. One is the cultural map of these onetime or surviving, but obscured public representations, and the other is the geography of Romani urban life and Romani self-organization/activism. Relying on archival research and oral history interviews, it will investigate how dominant society kept the residence locations, community life and cultural-political activism of the Roma away from urban centres by spatial memorialisations on the urban margins. Some sites to be examined were established in central urban areas, but they often served oppressive ends, such as the nationalist appropriation and/or de-Romafying of individuals' memories, or stereotyping representations that ideologically endorsed policing the Roma in public urban spaces. These meanings will be negotiated through critical discourse analysis, extending to a wide range of written and visual sources.

19世纪末至20世纪末，匈牙利有20多个城市纪念地专门用于纪念罗姆族杰出人士，这是一个经常面临极端歧视的少数群体，这是历史上被遗忘的一部分。这项研究旨在探讨这些网站是如何牵连在占主导地位的社会对罗姆社区的空间控制。结合批判性分析和历史研究，它将显示罗姆人的日常生活和文化政治活动是如何远离城市中心的，有时是由城市遗产环境多元化的霸权战略的帮助下，根据10-15个这样的网站到现在的历史，这项研究将重建匈牙利两种类型的基本上看不见的城市地理的发展及其相互关系。一个是这些曾经或幸存但被掩盖的公共表现的文化地图，另一个是罗姆人城市生活和罗姆人自我组织/行动主义的地理。它将依靠档案研究和口述历史访谈，调查占主导地位的社会如何通过在城市边缘进行空间纪念，使罗姆人的居住地点、社区生活和文化政治活动远离城市中心。一些有待审查的场所设在中心城区，但它们往往服务于压迫性目的，例如民族主义者占用和/或消除个人记忆的罗姆化，或在意识形态上支持在城市公共场所维持罗姆人治安的陈规定型观念。这些意义将通过批判性话语分析进行协商，扩展到广泛的书面和视觉来源。
