In the thesis authoress deals with the presence or absence of social kapital in the Roma village Hudeje and is looking for the answer to the question – Is social kapital (relations, network, integration) catalyst, that »puts« in the Roma village Hudeje also a human and cultural capital? Another objective is to determine what factors hinder the social capital of the Roma population in the village Hudeje, to also contribute their share in the social and cultural capital. The authoress of the study notes that the presence of social and cultural capital in the village Hudeje is low, both at the individual level as in the Roma community. Further notes that if the Roma from the village Hudeje wants to become socially involved they have to come together, connect and cooperate with each other. The authoress confirms the research question, that social capital is one that requires knowledge useful for life and is a key player in the integration of Roma in society. As a solution the authoress indicates the establishment of the Roma community in the village, which will have its duties and obligations to the members and the community. The importance of community is reflected in the socializing, solving common problems, adaptation and mutual assistance. Individuals and community will so obtain important information, create a relationship and expand their social network, all of which constitutes the social capital of Roma from the village Hudeje.

V magistrski nalogi se avtorica ukvarja z (ne)prisotnostjo socialnega kapitala v romskem naselju Hudeje. Išče odgovore na vprašanje - ali je socialni kapital (odnosi, mreže, povezovanja) katalizator, ki v romsko naselje »spravlja« tudi človeški in kulturni kapital? Poleg tega želi ugotoviti, kateri dejavniki socialnega kapitala ovirajo romsko populacijo iz naselja Hudeje, da bi tudi sami prispevali svoj delež v socialni in kulturni kapital. Avtorica z raziskavo ugotavlja, da je v naselju Hudeje prisotnost socialnega in kulturnega kapitala nizka, tako na ravni posameznika kot romske skupnosti. Nadalje ugotavlja, da bodo Romi iz naselja Hudeje morali sami stopiti skupaj, se povezati in med seboj sodelovati, če bodo želeli postati družbeno vključeni. Tako avtorica potrdi raziskovalno vprašanje, da je socialni kapital tisti, ki predpostavlja znanje uporabno za življenje in je ključni akter vključevanja Romov v družbeno življenje. Kot rešitev avtorica nakaže ustanovitev romske skupnosti v naselju, ki bo imela svoje naloge in obveznosti do članov in skupnosti. Pomen skupnosti se izraža v druženju, reševanju skupnih problemov, prilaganju in medsebojni pomoči. Posameznik in skupnost bosta tako pridobivala pomembne informacije, si ustvarila odnos in si širila socialno mrežo, vse to pa predstavlja socialni kapital Romov iz naselja Hudeje.
