Calls for its decolonization have washed like great breakers over the institution; almost everyone today wants to "rethink the museum."

With a specific focus on the history of the Louvre, she centers the context in which the universal museum as a product of the Enlightenment and colonialism, of a Europe that presents itself as the guardian of the heritage of all humanity. Discussing the impasses in the representation of slavery and examining unsuccessful attempts to subvert the museum institution, Vergès outlines a radical to decolonize the museum truly is to implement a 'programme of absolute disorder,' inventing other ways of apprehending the human and non-human world that nourish collective creativity and bring justice and dignity to populations who have been dispossessed of it.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
