Whose Culture?

Argues that modern nation-states have at best a dubious connection with the ancient cultures they claim to represent, and that archeology has been misused by nationalistic identity politics. This book explains why exhibition is essential to responsible acquisitions, and why our shared art heritage trumps nationalist agendas.
