This study aimed to investigate how principals in Stockholm as recruiters talked about the recruitment process and ethnic diversity and how these statements could affect the possibilities of a Romany acquiring a Student Aid position within the school in question. The statements are interpreted through a discursive perspective inspired by Foucault and Laclau & Mouffe with a special focus on the power aspect and its consequences in terms of inclusion and exclusion. The result presented that defining the right and wrong person for the job is the central theme (nodal point) in the discourse were the Romanies are seen as just almost right as their competence mainly works as a complement to the existing work-force.

Our common interest in integration springs, not only from formal studies and work experiences, but also from travel experiences. As a result of these we became interested in how people interact with one and another in different cultural contexts. Which later led us to study the phenomenon recruitment and diversity with an emphase on Romanies.
