Museum Theory showcases innovative theoretical formations that have defined museum studies and which point the way towards its future.
Museum Practice addresses areas of museum work--especially those that have been neglected in the existing critical literature--in order to re-articulate and transcend the theory-practice division.
Museum Media focuses on the relationship between museums and media, how media are changing contemporary museums, the role of material objects in museums, and how museums produce different kinds of visitor experience through display design.
Museum Transformations addresses the social, cultural, political, and economic developments that are shaping and re-shaping museums.
