Description

This volume brings together a range of essays that offer a new perspective on the dynamic history of the museum as a cultural institution in South Asia.

It traces the museum from its origin as a tool of colonialism and adoption as a vehicle of sovereignty in the nationalist period, till its role in the present, as it reflects the fissured identities of the post-colonial period.
