Summary/Abstract: 1. Deep poverty should not be considered as a solely Roma problem. Of the nearly three quarter million people living in deep poverty in Hungary, only 250–300 thousand are of Roma descent. Looked at another way, of the estimated 700–800 thousand Roma, only an estimated 250–300 thousand live in deep poverty. 2. Social problems should not be classified according to race. We must differentiate more clearly between Roma and non-Roma issues. Exclusion should not necessarily, and in all cases be handled in isolation. The viewpoint of the Roma regarding education, employment, and health should appear in the general social and economical plan.
