It then analyzes the conditions that paved the way for institutional change as the weakening of the national setting has allowed other layers of histories -local, regional, community, indigenous, minority- to be expressed. Finally, it explains why handling colonial heritage in contemporary exhibitions -through the historical contextualization of the collections on display- is of paramount importance to museums small and big, and look at the extent to which they succeed in adapting to change, through various examples taken from Europe and Australia.Universidad Autónoma de Baja California2015-10-132021-06-03T03:53:43Z2021-06-03T03:53:43Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtículo evaluado por paresapplication/pdfhttp://culturales.uabc.mx/index.php/Culturales/article/view/100 https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12930/7093Culturales; Vol. 6 No. 12 (2010); 97-116Culturales; Vol. 6 Núm. 12 (2010); 97-1162448-539X1870-1191reponame:Repositorio Institucional de la UABCSinstname:Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Surinstacron:UABCSspahttp://culturales.uabc.mx/index.php/Culturales/article/view/100/99info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:repositorioinstitucional.uabc.mx:20.500.12930/70932024-09-18T21:35:35Z
