Apreciados colegas: he seguido con interés los aportes, discusiones, acuerdos y desacuerdos alrededor de la definición de MUSEO. Sería de especial utilidad si alguien aportara un resumen en español de las diferentes definiciones para estimular la participación de los hispanoparlantes.

Asunto: Re: Museum definition 11/6/2003
Dear Michael, Gary; Berenice; et al:
I a have been following the interesting discussions on the definition of
"museum". Unfortunatly it seems it has been reduced to a few
participants and all of them English speaking.
I am a bit surprised that our collegues from ICOFOM have not
participated...
Anyway, I would like to share with you my own points of view. I agree
with Gary, Michael and Geoffrey in relation to looking into a much more
profound, deeper and overwrapping view of museums. It seems to me we are
only rephrasing the traditional defintion of a museum.
I congratulate Berenice because of her very objective, clear and precise
approach. I would, appreciate though,a a more universal view. A real
breakthroeugh that agrees with the formal and operating innovations in
museums that are actually taking place.
In an other mail I will transalate the definitions garthered by Gary.
Hopefully hey will be reacted upon.

Surely the reverse is true? "Public benefit" is a generalisation that
surely cannot go out of fashion? It is "Multiculturalism" and "social
inclusion" that are the current politically-correct buzzwords. The
"public" are the public irrespective of social or cultural status.
