Displacing and Displaying the Objects of Others

The edited volume Objects of Others brings together contributions from the Hamburg School of Provenance Research, initiated by the research center "Hamburg's (post-)colonial legacy". By contextualizing the conducted research within a broader field of global history and new colonial history including postcolonial approaches, the volume extends provenance research to not only examine the origin of objects, but also address questions about consequences for the societies of origin as well as the further use of the objects in collections and museums.
