Focusing on the evolution of public museums, this book critically engages with Foucault's theories to explore the political dynamics shaping various types of museums, including natural history, anthropology, art, and geology. It provides a comprehensive analysis of how these institutions have transformed over time, highlighting their role in the interplay between power and knowledge in society. Through a global lens, it offers insights into the changing functions and meanings of museums in the modern era.
