{"product_id":"museums-and-restitution-louise-tythacott-9781409435631","title":"Museums and Restitution: New Practices, New Approaches","description":"This book examines contemporary approaches to restitution from the perspective of museums. It focuses on the ways in which these institutions have been addressing the subject at a regional, national and international level. In particular, it explores contemporary practices and recent claims, and investigates to what extent the question of restitution as an issue of ownership is still at large, or whether museums have found additional ways to conceptualise and practice restitution, by thinking beyond the issue of ownership. The challenges, benefits and drawbacks of recent and current museum practice are explored. At the same time, the book discusses how these museum practices are received, and informed, by source communities, institutional and governmental agendas and visitors' expectations in order to explore issues of authority, collaboration and shared or conflicting values between the different communities involved in the process. This important book will contribute to the developing body of literature that academics, professionals, policy makers and students can refer to in order to understand how restitution has been negotiated, 'materialised', practiced and evaluated within museums.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Louise Tythacott\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1409435636\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781409435631\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/10\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 204\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.10w x 0.60d","brand":"Louise Tythacott","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48088174002431,"sku":"9781409435631","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ab283ccb-4270-46ac-ba0a-c9b8cf00a4f6.jpg?v=1769103470","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/museums-and-restitution-louise-tythacott-9781409435631","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
