Description

In the context of critical museology, museums are questioning their social role, defining the museum as a site for knowledge exchange and participation in creating links between past and present.

Museum education has evolved as a practice in its own right, questioning, expanding and transforming exhibitions and institutions.

How does museum work change if we conceive of curating and education as an integrated practice?

This question is addressed by international contributors from different types of museums.

For anyone interested in the future of museums, it offers insights into the diversity of positions and experiences of translating the »grand designs« of museology into practice.
