Description
This volume deals with the way museum spaces – local, regional, national – have engaged with the history of migration, including internal migration, emigration and immigration. The book charts the developing body of research which concentrates on the analysis of the representation of migration in relation to the changing character of museums within society, examining their civic role and their function as key public arenas within civil society. Focusing on the way museums interact with processes of political and societal changes, it examines their agency and relationship to identity construction, community involvement, policy positions and discourses, but also ethics and moralities.
