How can we reconcile the various meanings of decolonising with the institution of the museum? This article looks at the meanings that decolonisation has accrued in museums in German-speaking Europe, as well as the possibilities it carries. It first looks at decolonisation in museums as a project to bridge the knowledge gap around colonialism and its consequences. From there, it tries to explore the way colonialism influenced the way we organise and produce knowledge, and what this means for decolonial practices in museums. It then explores decolonisation as a project of power redistribution before looking at it as a project of justice and repair. Finally, it asks whether decolonising museums is even a possible goal. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Polylog is the property of Wiener Gesellschaft fur interkulturelle Philosophie and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
