>"New Directions in Museum Anthropology"
>
>The new millennium has seen an unprecedented flurry of new Museum
>exhibitions
>pertaining to Indigenous issues in Australia. Those exhibitions - for
>example,
>at Museum Victoria, the South Australian Museum and the new National Museum
>in
>Canberra - are both highly diverse and indicative of tensions in the mood
>and
>practice of museum anthropology in Australia. The tensions are not
>restricted to
>the exhibition context, but relate to a much wider context particularly
>involving issues to do with ownership, control and repatriation.
>
>This session calls for papers that address the directions museum
>anthropology
>(and associated matters) is taking in Australia at the present time. Papers
>that
>focus on both exhibitions and 'behind-the-scenes' work on collections are
>welcome, as are papers that look at associated issues to do with
>collecting,
>representation, ownership etc. outside of a strict museum context.
>
>Anyone interested in giving a paper in this session should submit a title
>and
>abstract (c. 100-150 words) ASAP to Brett Galt-Smith at the Strehlow
