Reihe: Critical Concepts in Media and Cultural Studies

In the last few decades Museum Studies has expanded enormously to become an internationally recognized and highly interdisciplinary academic field. This five volume collection addresses the philosophical, theoretical, and ethical concerns of museums alongside the equally important practical, organizational, and operational issues to understand how they operate today.
