Museums, Refugees and Communities explores the ways in which
museums in Germany, The Netherlands and the UK have responded to
the complexities and ethical dilemmas involved in discussing the
reasons for, and issues surrounding, contemporary refugee
displacements. Building upon an ethnographic study carried out in
the UK with refugees from the Democratic Republic of Congo, the
book explores how object-led approaches can inspire new ways of
thinking about and analysing refugees' experiences and European
museums' work with their communities. Enlarging the developing body
of research on museums' increasing engagement with human rights and
focusing in particular on the social, cultural and practical
dimensions of community engagement practices with refugees, the
book also aims to inform growing debates on museums as sites of
activism. Museums, Refugees and Communities offers an innovative
and interdisciplinary examination of museum work with and about
refugees. As such, it should appeal to researchers, academics and
students engaged in the study of museums, heritage, migration,
ethics, community engagement, culture, sociology and anthropology.
