The museum in the cross-border communication: a political project
Journal Title: ESSACHESS - Journal for Communication Studies - Year 2008, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The study highlights the political stakes in the exposition organized to the Museum of the « Down Danube » in Călăraşi (Rumania) and to the Museum of History in Silistra (Bulgaria) within the framework of the European project « Cultural - Historical Inheritance Without Boundaries ». It puts in evidence the role of the museum as cultural organization in the process of transborder cooperation by examining three essential questions : a) the political sense of the cultural objectives of the project, b) the local, national and European dimensions of the political stakes and c) the incidences of the instrumentation of the local museum of culture and history.
