Synopsis

This volume examines peace museums, a small and important (but often overlooked) series of museums whose numbers have multiplied internationally since the 1970s. It introduces the history and significance of peace museums and their different approaches through a selected series of peace museum sites. It attempts to categorize and distinguish between different types of museums that are linked to peace in name, theme or purpose and to urge a "critical peace museums studies" in examining their varied emphasis and content.
