Cultural and Media Policy Studies News and Events

The Role of Today's Museum takes a critical, interdisciplinary approach to studying museums and museum policy. As a result, the book will be of interest to academics and students engaged in the study of museums, cultural policy, social policy, cultural sociology, public policy and cultural and political economy. Highlighting the gaps that exist between policy ideals and museum practices, the book also provides valuable insights to policy-makers and practitioners.

Staff and students are welcome to join us for a morning of research and discussion about the current pre-occupations of Centre staff including the working-class audience for theatre, artists and human rights, precarious work in the West End and Broadway, statues of comedians and environmental sustainability in media production.
