CfP: To the rescue of minority groups. Gender, migration and racism in heritage and museums

The gradual transformation experienced by museums in the last few years has fostered the incorporation into exhibition spaces of social minorities hitherto barred from them due to their social invisibility, exclusion and marginalisation. Occidentalism and European-centred perspectives gave rise to decontextualised, distorted and racial exhibition criteria constructed from a biased view of otherness. Ethnocentrism remains rampant.

CfP: Nordics in Motion: Transimperial Spaces and Global Experiences

The past decade has witnessed a growing interest in Nordic involvement in colonialism, whether participation in the global slave trade, settler colonialism in Sámi lands, or various forms of collaboration by Nordic individuals and groups with other European empires (Alsaker Kjerland & Enge Bertelsen 2015; Petersen et al. 2017; Fur & Hennessey 2020; Lahti & Kullaa 2020)
