will award a prize of eur 1,500 for the best - most thorough, analytical

The authors should consider the wider theoretical context behind the idea
of this transnational representation of a strong cultural identity. What
is expected is not only a review about the Pavilion, but a critical survey

minority 'community' and 'plural identity' in the modern nation-state.

The submitted review could be an already published critical essay about
the Roma Pavilion or one written specifically for this purpose. Should the
prize be won by a group of authors the prize will be divided among them
equally.
