OverviewNational Museums is a major thematic collection of new research papers from around the world. It is the first book to explore the national museum as a cultural institution in a range of contrasting national contexts, revealing how these museums have been used to create a sense of national self, place the nation in the arts, deal with the consequences of political change, remake difficult pasts, and confront those issues of nationalism, ethnicity and multiculturalism.
