Museer är samhällets kollektiva minne. Men vad är det vi ska föra över från en generation till nästa? När framgång mäts i budgetresultat politiseras och påverkas våra gemensamma minnen och kunskaper – det vi kallar för kulturarv. Det menar etnologerna Lizette Gradén och Tom O’Dell som under flera år forskat om våra museer. För att få statligt stöd rättar sig många museer efter regeringens reglerin
