Looks at how cultures have been exhibited in western museums in the past and how practices are changing which challenge the traditional role that museums have played.
Drawing upon material from Britain, Canada, the United States, Australia and New Zealand, Making Representations explores the ways in which museums and anthropologists are responding to pressures in the field by developing new policies and practices, and forging new relationships with communities.
Simpson examines the increasing number of museums and cultural centres being established by indigenous and immigrant communities as they take control of the interpretive process and challenge the traditional role of the museum.
Museum studies students and museum professionals will all find this a stimulating and valuable read.
