Sinopse

Political Museums explores how museums become tools for shaping public opinion and reinforcing political power through curated history. These institutions, often perceived as neutral, can selectively present historical narratives to promote specific ideologies, influencing how we collectively remember the past. The book investigates the creation and manipulation of historical narratives within museum settings, highlighting how historical events are reinterpreted or omitted to serve political goals. By examining museum display designs, the book reveals how these spaces actively construct and reinforce narratives that legitimize political power. The book analyzes case studies from various countries, showcasing the diverse strategies used to promote specific political ideologies. It delves into the ethical implications of politically motivated historical representation, such as censorship and the suppression of dissenting voices. Readers will gain insights into how museums function as agents of propaganda, shaping historical narratives to align with state power. Understanding historical revisionism becomes crucial as the book progresses, empowering visitors to critically assess museum information and consider alternative perspectives. Ultimately, Political Museums aims to inform and provoke critical thinking about the role of these institutions in shaping our understanding of the past. It challenges the assumption of objectivity in museum displays, urging visitors to become more critical consumers of historical information. The book progresses by introducing the concept of curated history, analyzing case studies, and discussing ethical implications, providing a comprehensive understanding of political museums and their impact on collective memory.

    With the right to petition the United Nations, the Ewe and Togoland unification movement enjoyed a privilege unmatched by other dependent peoples. Using language conveying insecurity, the movement seized the international spotlight, ensuring that the topic of unification dominated the UN Trusteeship System for over a decade. Yet, its vociferous securitisations fell silent due to colonial distortion, leaving unification unfulfilled, thus allowing the seeds of secessionist conflict to grow. At the intersection of postcolonial theory and security studies, Julius Heise presents a theory-driven history of Togoland's path to independence, offering a crucial lesson for international statebuilding efforts.

    Helen Keller’s name is forever linked with courage, perseverance, and the power of education. In Midstream: My Later Life, she picks up where The Story of My Life left off, offering a rare and intimate look at her journey beyond her early triumphs. 
    Here, Keller recounts the challenges and victories of adulthood—her advocacy for people with disabilities, her international travels, her friendships with world leaders and artists, and her tireless fight for social change. She writes candidly about setbacks, loneliness, and the weight of public life, but also about the deep sense of purpose that guided her. 
    Far more than a continuation of her first memoir, Midstream reveals Keller as an outspoken activist and global citizen. Her story is one of resilience and vision, an extraordinary life dedicated not only to overcoming personal barriers, but to dismantling the world’s. 
    This inspiring autobiography is a testament to the strength of the human spirit, and a reminder that true greatness lies not in what we achieve for ourselves, but in what we give to others.

    A Short History of the Gaza Strip

    Since October 2023, Israel has carried out one of the most brutal military onslaughts in modern history on the Gaza Strip, in response to the Hamas-led attacks of October 7. But Gaza had long been in crisis even prior to the current violence, now widely recognized as genocidal. For seventy-seven years, the Palestinian people have endured displacement, occupation, collective punishment, and ethnic cleansing―with those in Gaza often bearing the brunt of it. 
     
    With remarkable clarity and compassion, historian Anne Irfan tells the story of the Gaza Strip through six pivotal moments in its modern history, beginning with Israel's expulsion of the Palestinian people upon its establishment in 1948. 
     
    As Irfan takes us through Israel's occupations of Gaza, the Palestinian national struggle and formation of the PLO, the first intifada, the creation of the Palestinian Authority, and the rise of Hamas, she tackles widespread historical ignorance and untangles contradicting narratives. Drawing on a decade of research, Irfan weaves in the voices of everyday Palestinians, from farmers who became refugees in Gaza to poets and activists who grew up in the Strip. Featuring a foreword from Muhammad Shehada, A Short History of the Gaza Strip is an indispensable listen for anyone seeking to understand Palestine and its impact on the world.
