    Book SynopsisThis volume suggests a model of collective memory that distinguishes between two conceptual logics of memory fragmentation: vertical fragmentation and horizontal fragmentation. It offers a series of case studies of conflict and post-conflict collective memory, shedding light on the ways various actors participate in the production, dissemination, and contestation of memory discourses.With attention to the characteristics of both vertical and horizontal memory fragmentation, the book addresses the plurality of diverging, and often conflicting, memory discourses that are produced within the public sphere of a given community. It analyzes the juxtaposition, tensions, and interactions between narratives produced beyond or below the central state, often transcending national boundaries.The book is structured according to the type of actors involved in a memory fragmentation process. It explores how states have been trying to produce and impose memory discourses on civil socTable of ContentsTable of contents Anne Bazin, Emmanuelle Hébert, Valérie Rosoux & Eric Sangar: Introduction: "Memory fragmentation" as a new heuristic tool to grasp the dynamics of political uses of the past in conflict and post-conflict settings Civil society actors Stipe Odak: Construction of Victimhood and its Fragmentation within National Frameworks Johanna Mannergren Selimovic: Gender, Memory and Peace: Struggles between Homogenisation and Fragmentation Elise Féron: Conflict memories and gender-based violence: from silencing to standardization Elise Julien: The Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge: a century of memory negotiations in Germany Thomas Serrier: Pluralism at stake: Rebelling provinces and the national master narrative in the German-Polish memories after the end of the Cold War Delphine Griveaud & Solveig Hennebert: The PSG Ultras’ annual commemoration of the 13 November 2015 terrorist attacks: a window on collective memory Historians Sandra Rios Oyola: The Fragmentation of Historical Memory in Colombia Emmanuelle Hébert: Transforming Polish-German Past: Toward a common narrative?

    Book SynopsisEvaluating Early Learning in Museums presents developmentally appropriate and culturally relevant practices for engaging early learners and their families in informal arts settings.Written by early childhood education researchers and a museum practitioner, the book showcases what high-quality educational programs can offer young children and their families through the case study of a program at the High Museum of Art in Atlanta, Georgia. Providing strategies for building strong community partnerships and audience relationships, the authors also survey evaluation tools for early learning programs and offer strategies to help museums around the world to engage young children. At the center of this narrative is the seminal partnership that developed between researchers and museum educators during the evaluation of a program for toddlers. Illuminating key components of the partnership and the resulting evolution of family offerings at the museum, the book also draws paraTable of ContentsIntroduction: ​Early Learning in the Context of the Museum 1.Young Children in Museums Today 2.

    Book SynopsisMuseums, Refugees and Communities explores the ways in which museums in Germany, The Netherlands and the UK have responded to the complexities and ethical dilemmas involved in discussing the reasons for, and issues surrounding, contemporary refugee displacements.Building upon an ethnographic study carried out in the UK with refugees from the Democratic Republic of Congo, the book explores how object-led approaches can inspire new ways of thinking about and analysing refugeesâ experiences and European museumsâ work with their communities. Enlarging the developing body of research on museumsâ increasing engagement with human rights and focusing in particular on the social, cultural and practical dimensions of community engagement practices with refugees, the book also aims to inform growing debates on museums as sites of activism. Museums, Refugees and Communities offers an innovative and interdisciplinary examination of museum work with and about refugees. As such, it should appeal to researchers, academics and students engaged in the study of museums, heritage, migration, ethics, community engagement, culture, sociology and anthropology.Table of Contents1.Museums, Refugees and Communities; 2.The ‘dirty Work’ of Boundary Maintenance; 3.

  • Exhibitions as Research

    Taylor & Francis Exhibitions as Research

    15 in stock

    Book SynopsisExhibitions as Research contends that museums would be more attractive to both researchers and audiences if we consider exhibitions as knowledge-in-the-making rather than platforms for disseminating already-established insights. Analysing the theoretical underpinnings and practical challenges of such an approach, the book questions whether it is possible to exhibit knowledge that is still in the making, whilst also considering which concepts of knowledge apply to such a format. The book also considers what the role of audience might be if research is extended into the exhibition itself. Providing concrete case studies of projects where museum professionals have approached exhibition making as a knowledge-generating process, the book considers tools of application and the challenges that might emerge from pursuing such an approach. Theoretically, the volume analyses the emergence of exhibitions as research as part of recent developments within materialitTable of ContentsIntroduction: Exhibitions as research - Peter BjerregaardPart I Cross-disciplinary collaboration Chapter 1 Sketches for a methodology on exhibition research - Henrik TreimoChapter 2 Joining transdisciplinary forces to revive the past: Establishing a Viking Garden at the Natural History Museum, Oslo - Anneleen Kool and Axel Dalberg PoulsenChapter 3 Ethnography, exhibition practices and undiscipined encounters: The generative work of amulets in London - Nathalia Brichet and Frida HastrupPart II Sensing knowledgeChapter 4 Exhibitions as philosophical carpentry: On object-oriented exhibitio- making - Adam BencardChapter 5 Museum objects in the marketplace - Kari K.
