Cultural Identity and Heritage Migration, Refugees, and Integration Museums and Cultural Heritage

Abstract

The politics surrounding the representation of notions of community in Australian museums and heritage sites has long centred on tensions around the representation of migration history.For, at the heart of differing models of migration history are different understandings of national identity and citizenship.That this is so in Australia should not be surprising.After all, we are a settler culture, born of the British Empire in the first instance and of global twentieth-century history with its patterns of war and massive population movements.
