Description

Explore the evolving relationship between the public and archaeology in this second edition of Beyond the Glass Case. Published by Routledge as part of the UCL Institute of Archaeology Publications, this work presents the findings of a comprehensive nationwide survey conducted in the UK. The research examines how people use and perceive the past, archaeology, and the act of collecting. This book offers a deep look at why museums and similar heritage institutions often struggle to connect with a broad audience. By reviewing empirical research alongside contemporary theories on representation and ideology, the author provides a clear explanation for these disconnects. Rather than just identifying problems, the text presents a path forward. It makes a strong case for a new approach designed to reach underserved populations. The goal is to transform the museum into a service that helps the public see and engage with history in meaningful ways. This is an essential resource for those studying heritage management, museum studies, and the sociology of archaeology.
