Museums, Migration and Cultural Diversity: Swedish Museums in Tune with the Times? - Studien Verlag Christina Johansson 1.º edición

This volume explains how integration and representation of immigration are presented in national narratives and how these aspects are handled in the work of museums. The author focuses on Sweden and describes its history of migration, the development of Swedish integration policies, and the Swedish self-image. The book analyzes how museums work with these aspects of migration and cultural diversity. The case study of the Malmö Museums describes the work of this specific museum with migration and cultural diversity and analyzes how the multicultural setting of the city can be relevant for the museum sector.
