“…An important strand of new museology took partial inspiration from postmodernism and, more specifically, the French historian-philosopher Michel Foucault, and studied museums as disciplinary and nation-forming institutions (Ames, 1986;Bennett, 1995;Sherman, 1994).

We want to offer a different reading of the political that is not present in this literature.…”
