"South African society has been refashioned since the first democratic elections were held in 1994; if democracy is the theory then transformation is the practice. This is apparent in the nation's museums, where collections and exhibition policies, staff and audiences have been changed in fundamental ways. Such changes have impacted the range of these institutions, including those focusing on art, natural history and science, cultural history, local events, and military matters. Steven C. Dubin examines in Mounting Queen Victoria the various strategies museums have adopted to shed their former ideological biases and become more inclusive. This book also notes that in this process, museums have developed into lively centres of debate - noisy democratic forums recovering the past and generating fresh information"--Publisher's website.
