What are the forces and values of traditional national display in dealing with challenges to national, cultural and political discourse? This will be achieved by a series of conferences providing a venue for younger scholars and eminent researcher to gather and develop the multi-disciplinary competence necessary to understand and compare the dynamics of national museums in a framework of a broadly understood his- torical culture and identity politics. The opening address present the aim and intellectual challenges of the entire program and outline the question of definitions and performance made by national museums and the possibilities of the comparative and multi-disciplinary scope. 5 Setting the Frames The opening conference Setting the frames invites a discussion that will be relevant for the whole series. Its scope is not in-depth inquiry as much as to map the terrain, to explore the most productive way to develop the path to follow and generate research questions. This means to put into work knowledge from several disciplines and countries, instead of leaving them to their respective internal dynamics. In the background of this approach a thorough reflection on the structure of knowledge (contemporary and optimal) corresponds to the idea of investigating how the structure and anatomy of the National museums are working. Under scrutiny is not only an ensemble of museums of various kinds looked upon as part of a more or less concerted negotiation, but on the academic side a likewise concerted variety of disci- plines. To know to what extent different knowledge structures are compared or if the differ- ences are due to institutional and historical variation is of course vital – and difficult since these two systems do interact. For the first conference was 60 researchers from 17 countries and 22 disciplines with 43 papers attending. The diversity is challenging, and proved to be rewarding. Some dominance for art history and museology presents two well-developed clusters of disciplinary back- ground but also within them a variety of perspectives are presented in the papers. There is no paper that explicitly deals with the structure of knowledge, but of course sev- eral starts out with an image of earlier research and propose not only addition of new facts but also changing perspectives. Some of the papers do explicitly deal with a critical approach to the overwhelming structural and cognitive approach developed in the study of national muse- ums and propose changing focus and more diverse approaches from within, from the

  • Appendix 3: Finding Aid for Vanuatu Material in Scotland
    ReviewReview ofof PacificPacific Collections in Scottish Museums Appendix 3: Finding Aid for Vanuatu Material in Scotland Produced as part of Pacific Collections in Scottish Museums: Unlocking their knowledge and potential project 2013-2014. For full information and resources visit www.nms.ac.uk/pacific Artefacts and Archives relating to Vanuatu in public repositories in Scotland (United Kingdom) This finding aid has been compiled as a result of a preliminary survey of Pacific Collections in Scottish Museums undertaken between April 2013 and December 2014. The review scoped the extent of Pacific collections in Scotland and identified key strengths and resources for future research. It also compiled Collections Level Descriptions for each regional island group and to highlight significance. The review was undertaken as a partnership across four museums in Scotland with significant or extensive collections from the Pacific region. These partners were National Museums Scotland (Edinburgh); Glasgow Museums; Perth Museum and Art Gallery and Aberdeen University Museums. Each of these museums hold collections from Vanuatu that have clear associations with islands or regions in Vanuatu and relate to well known Scottish missionaries. How to use this finding aid This finding aid provides an overview of Ni-Vanuatu artefact collections in Scotland and where possible related archives or photographs. The following list provides the names of key individuals through which the collections were acquired. The finding aid enables an initial overview of collections and resources and provides contact details for each of the major museums and libraries so that requests for further information can be made. The finding aid should also be used in conjunction with Excel spreadsheets and photographs of artefacts also deposited with the National Archives of Vanuatu.

  • FOI-19-1479 - Cultural Strategy
    From: Foi Enquiries <[email protected]> Sent: 03 December 2019 10:22 Subject: FOI-19-1479 - Cultural Strategy Thank you for your information request of 04 November 2019. Aberdeen City Council (ACC) has completed the necessary search for the information requested. Our response is now detailed below. Why does Aberdeen need a Cultural Strategy? And what are its restraints of having a Cultural Strategy? What makes an Art organization fundable? How does the council support Art organizations? It has been said in the Strategy keeping doors open for creativity. How open are the doors to Aberdeen’s Creative Sector? There must be restraints to creating. Why does Aberdeen focus funding more on Festivals? What does Culture bring into the city that other sectors don't? Is Aberdeen on track to hit the goals they have set? Aberdeen is one of the cities that will be deeply affected by Brexit. How will Brexit affect Aberdeen and its creative industrials and its Cultural Strategy? Where can I find the old strategy to see what has been done in the past? As the new 10-year plan has mentioned it a little in the introduction. The Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002 provides public access to recorded information held by the council at the time a request is made and does not cover officer’s opinions, comments or ongoing conversations. We are unable to provide you with information on your questions regarding Aberdeen City Council’s Cultural Strategy as it is not held by ACC. In order to comply with our obligations under the terms of Section 17 of the FOISA, we hereby gives notice that this information is not held by us.

  • Histoire Des Collections Numismatiques Et Des Institutions Vouées À La Numismatique
    HISTOIRE DES COLLECTIONS NUMISMATIQUES ET DES INSTITUTIONS VOUÉES À LA NUMISMATIQUE Numismatic Collections in Scotland Scotland is fortunate in possessing two major cabinets of international signifi- cance. In addition over 120 other institutions, from large civic museums to smaller provincial ones, hold collections of coins and medals of varying size and impor- tance. 1 The two main collections, the Hunterian held at the University of Glasgow, and the national collection, housed at the National Museums of Scotland in Edinburgh, nicely complement each other. The former, based on the renowned late 18th centu- ry cabinet of Dr. William Hunter, contains an outstanding collection of Greek and Roman coins as well as important groups of Anglo-Saxon, medieval and later English, and Scottish issues along with a superb holding of medals. The National Museums of Scotland house the largest and most comprehensive group of Scottish coins and medals extant. Each collection now numbers approximately 70,000 speci- mens. The public numismatic collections from the rest of Scotland, though perhaps not so well known, are now recorded to some extent due to a National Audit of the coun- try’s cultural heritage held by museums and galleries carried out by the Scottish Museums Council in 2001 on behalf of the Scottish Government. 2 Coins and Medals was one of 20 collections types included in the questionnaire, asking for location, size and breakdown into badges, banknotes, coins, medals, tokens, and other. Over 12 million objects made up what was termed the Distributed National Collection, of which 3.3% consisted of approximately 68,000 coins and medals in the National Museums concentrated in Edinburgh and 345,000 in the non-nationals throughout the rest of the country.

  • The Faroe Islands, Iceland and Greenland- St
    The Faroe Islands, Iceland and Greenland Stronger Together? Abstract The Arctic and the developments occurring in the region has raised considerable international awareness over the last years. This region has gone from being mostly unknown to becoming the most sought after region among the international actors. The climate change has caused a change in the region, where the ice is melting creating new shipping routes combining other continents than before. Research done in the region shows a signifcant amount of undiscovered raw resources, such as oil, mineral and gas. The fisheries routes are changing and the new shipping lanes can further enhance the tourism industry. Thus, there are many opportunities in the Arctic region just waiting to be discovered. The small countries the Faroe Islands, Iceland and Greenland are geopolitically situated within the Arctic region, and Greenland is the main country of interest for resource exploitation. As these are small countries they might have difficulty in dealing with the international interest in the regino, especially to turn it into their advantage. Therefore it is interesting to examine if these small countries will stand stronger together against the bigger actors trying to get a foothold in the Arctic region. In order to get an indication of whether the Faroe Islands, Iceland and Greenland are interested in cooperation and how enhanced cooperation can be perceived, it is important to look at the history first knowing that these countries have been colonized, and some still are. Regarding cooperation it will be relevant to examine the cooperation these countries already have and put it in the notions of liberal institutionalism and regionalism to get an indication of what works best for them.
