Museum as Process (eBook, ePUB)

Translating Local and Global Knowledges
Redaktion: Silverman, Raymond

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The museum has become a vital strategic space for negotiating ownership of and access to knowledge produced in local settings. This volume presents community-engaged "culture work" of a group of scholars whose collaborative projects consider the social spaces between the museum and community and offer new ways of addressing the challenges of bridging the local and the global. Scholars from around the world describe their engagement with communities in Australia, Canada, Ghana, Great Britain, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, South Africa, Taiwan and the United States.
