This comprehensive book takes a broad museological approach, encompassing national and community museums, as well as public and private initiatives, across Asia and Latin America. Through in-depth case studies of museums in Taiwan, Japan, Paraguay, and Colombia, the book examines the paradigm shift that has occurred within the museum field in response to the broader global transformations that have shaped contemporary geo-politics over the last 50 years. The diverse geographical and political contexts, as well as the focus on lesser-known institutions within the canon of English museum studies literature, provide readers with a valuable opportunity to learn about innovative museological models in non-English-speaking and non-Western contexts. Human Rights Museums is a must-read for academics, scholars, students of museum studies, and museum professionals seeking to understand the evolving roles of museums in contemporary society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 350g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 233 x 155 x 17 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781032228983\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"JenniferCarter","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":46167788617978,"sku":"9781032228983","price":39.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1717189943667_book.jpg?v=1717329951","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/human-rights-museums-critical-tensions-between-memory-and-justice-9781032228983","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
