Abstract:
This talk will expand upon the chapter in the edited volume Museum Cooperation between Africa and Europe, which discusses how the developments of local, independent and community-based museums are profoundly influenced by their national and international stakeholders. The proposed framework for understanding how ideas on museums, heritage and development are distributed along these networks is the zone of contact, a reconfiguration of the often used 'contact zone' in museums. Drawing on doctoral research conducted in Kenya and Uganda, the importance of acknowledging the pervasive discourses in the global heritage field is emphasised and its assumptions are challenged.
