  • 1. University of California, Los Angeles

Description

The volume "The Postcolonial Museum" examines how we can conceive of a ‘postcolonial museum’ in the contemporary epoch of mass migrations, the internet and digital technologies. In particular, the essay by Neelima Jeychandran studies how the historical landscape of Fort Cochin exists as an alternative archive that narrates colonial history through unique modes of museal display.
