Climate Change and Museum Futures
AvFiona Cameron,Brett Neilson
Inbunden, Engelska, 2014
2 455 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Climate change is a complex and dynamic environmental, cultural and political phenomenon that is reshaping our relationship to nature. Climate change is a global force, with global impacts. Viable solutions on what to do must involve dialogues and decision-making with many agencies, stakeholder groups and communities crossing all sectors and scales. Current policy approaches are inadequate and finding a consensus on how to reduce levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere through international protocols has proven difficult. Gaps between science and society limit government and industry capacity to engage with communities to broker innovative solutions to climate change. Drawing on leading-edge research and creative programming initiatives, this collection details the important roles and agencies that cultural institutions (in particular, natural history and science museums and science centres) can play within these gaps as resources, catalysts and change agents in climate change debates and decision-making processes; as unique public and trans-national spaces where diverse stakeholders, government and communities can meet; where knowledge can be mediated, competing discourses and agendas tabled and debated; and where both individual and collective action might be activated.

The Sinister Shorter Fiction of Robert Westall
AvRobert Westall,Fiona Cameron
Häftad, Engelska, 2026
138 kr
Kommande
Known to those who grew up in the UK in the 1970s and 1980s for his unsettling children's novels such as The Scarecrows, The Creature in the Dark and The Machine Gunners (which was adapted for a BBC series in 1983), Robert Westall looms large over many a British childhood. But he was just as proficient and prolific when it came to short fiction for both young readers and adults - and sometimes a lot more terrifying.The new collection brings together several of his most chilling stories from long-forgotten collections such as The Haunting of Chas McGill, Ghosts and Journeys, and Demons and Shadows, ready to induce nightmares in a whole new generation of readers.

The coauthors of this theoretically innovative work explore the relationships among anthropological fieldwork, museum collecting and display, and social governance in the early twentieth century in Australia, Britain, France, New Zealand, and the United States. With case studies ranging from the MusÉe de l'Homme's 1930s fieldwork missions in French Indo-China to the influence of Franz Boas's culture concept on the development of American museums, the authors illuminate recent debates about postwar forms of multicultural governance, cultural conceptions of difference, and postcolonial policy and practice in museums. Collecting, Ordering, Governing is essential reading for scholars and students of anthropology, museum studies, cultural studies, and indigenous studies as well as museum and heritage professionals.

It's dangerous for adults to believe in fairy tales….'Peter MacKenzie put a hex on his daughters,' they used to say in the village of Balvaig, 'he cursed them so they'd never find happiness in a man's bed. And there's his grand-daughter gone the same path.….'Serena MacKenzie is a successful TV journalist, based in Edinburgh, but she has never shaken off the obsessions that have gripped her since her childhood in the dysfunctional MacKenzie family of Balvaig: fairy tale heroes, all things Russian, and her grandparents' disapproval.It's 1997, and she's newly divorced. When a friend persuades her to join a cruise to St Petersburg, it seems just the treat she has told herself she deserves.Over the space of a few heady days in the queen of Baltic cities, she meets Russian musician Max Grigoriev and brings him home with her, illegally. He seems like the first man in years who really understands her.But Max has his own agenda, and life with him turns out to be anything but a fairy tale…

The loneliest thing in the world is to be with someone who's not talking to you…….Although Ella Collingwood knows this well, she's hoping her new life in Balvaig, a tranquil village on the Hebridean Isle of Soma, will be a fresh start. But within weeks her husband, Rolf, is disillusioned with his new job, and it's clear he means to distract himself in the way that's almost caused their relationship to break down already; he still has a roving eye.A new relationship seems to offer Ella a way out – is it a haven or a trap?Recently-widowed artist Lenka Majewska, another recent arrival in Balvaig, is also feeling trapped; she's being pressured into making a commitment she's not yet ready to make.The two women soon become friends. Both have found to their cost that love is a risky business. Can they help each other weather the storm?

A woman who's been single all her life can't suddenly find love in her sixties….That's what retired teacher Peigi MacKenzie believes. Men have only brought her trouble in the past, and she has long since vowed never to let her heart lead her astray again; she has convinced herself she's content to be single. She has sold her house in the Hebridean village of Balvaig; she's financially secure, and happy with her new home on the Wirral peninsula.But the responsibility of looking after her late niece's two young children isn't what she had planned. She's looking for a way to reinvent herself…Out of the blue, she meets Liverpudlian ex-policeman Kevin Phillipis, a widower. Although he's far from being what Peigi would think of as "e;her type"e;, the attraction is mutual. She throws caution to the winds, and within months has agreed to marry Kevin.When everything starts to go wrong, there's a voice echoing in Peigi's head - her Free Kirk preacher father's: 'Happiness is a signal from the Devil that he's looking to trip you up.'Has it all been too good to be true after all?

Hot Topics, Public Culture, Museums

Hot Topics, Public Culture, Museums engages the highly problematic and increasingly important issue of museums, science centres, their roles in contemporary societies, their engagement with "hot" topics and their part in wider conversations in a networked public culture. Hot topics such as homosexuality, sexual, and racial violence, massacres, drugs, terrorism, GMO foods, H1M1 (swine flu) and climate change are now all part of museological culture. The authors in this collection situate cultural institutions in an increasingly interconnected, complex, globalising and uncertain world and engage the why and how institutions might form part of, activate conversations and action through discussions that theorise institutions in new ways to the very practical means in which institutions might engage their constituencies.
