Table of ContentsReviews'The follow-up volume to Museum Revolutions, The Contemporary Museum recognises the present as increasingly defined by the ubiquity of disruption and dissent, and explores the escalation of feelings of anxiety and outrage that arise from a rapidly changing world. The book's standout achievement is its geographically expansive set of case studies, which richly demonstrate the ongoing humanism and humanity of museums, as sites of affective, albeit often contested, meaning and personal and collective agency. Its analysis of the present as it exists in dialogue with the past and future as well as with the broad components of what is occurring globally at any given now , will make it essential reading for Museum Studies scholars for many years to come.'
