New publication from the Department of Museum Studies at University of
Leicester

Museums, Society, Inequality
Edited by Richard Sandell
Published by Routledge as part of the Museum Meanings series

"Museums, Society, Inequality explores the wide-ranging social roles and
responsibilities of museums. It brings together diverse perspectives which
collectively seek to stimulate critical debate, to inform the work of
practitioners and policy makers and to advance recognition of the agency of
museums; their purposes, responsibilities and value to society”.

Over 20 contributors offer fresh insights into a diverse range of topics.
They offer thought provoking and, indeed, challenging ways of thinking
about museum’s fundamental purposes.
