Occupation and Communism in Eastern European Museums
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-350-26642-1 (ISBN)
Occupation and Communism in Eastern European Museums argues that museums have a huge influence on the image of the communist past in Eastern Europe. It shows how they use a vast array of media tools, visual tactics and commercial strategies in order to substantiate ideological approaches to the past and to shape the attitude of public opinion.
