The museum and heritage sector has been shaken by debates over how to address colonialism
migration Islamophobia LGBTI+ and multiple other forms of difference. This major
multi-researcher ethnography of museums and heritage in Berlin provides new insight into how
>diversity< is understood and put into action in museums and heritage. Exploring new
initiatives and approaches the book shows how these work - or do not - in practice. By doing
so it highlights ways forward - for research and action - for the future. The fieldwork
locations on which this book is based include the Humboldt Forum the Museum of Islamic Art
the Museum für Naturkunde and the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe as well as Berlin
streets and protests.
