Peace Institute Book Launch Event
25 February 2010, Cankarjev dom, Ljubljana

The Peace Institute book “The Scars of the Erasure. A Contribution to the Critical Understanding of the Erasure from the Register of Permanent Residence of the Republic of Slovenia” is a joint result of seven authors. In the book the erasure is portrayed within various contexts – economic and political transition, establishing of the common European migration policy, human rights, health issues, nationalism, language rights and emancipation movements. By putting the erasure in these contexts the book aims to achieve a broader understanding of this measure of unlawful deprivation of legal status of the people. The book is dedicated to Aleksandar Todorović, a man at the forefront of the fight for the erased people’s rights.
