Summary
The Second Joint Research Seminar of the CHEurope project will be held in Amsterdam (16-19 January 2018) putting together academics and practitioners from the fields of heritage and museum studies. The question at the center of this JRS is, What does it mean to ‘do’ critical heritage today? Together with the invited speakers, we will reflect on the issues and challenges related to studying and producing heritage, as well as which methodologies can best serve us during our research journey. The seminar is organized by the Amsterdam School for Heritage, Memory and Material Culture (AHM), a partner in the CHEurope research project and an active research institution in the field. During the seminar, the CHEurope PhD candidates will attend a range of lectures, seminars, and panel discussions, and will visit a number of museums and heritage sites. Through these conversations, they will be exposed to key theories and methods in critical heritage studies, approached from diverse perspectives.
