Abstract(s)
The museum world is crossed by important changes. The economic crisis led indeed a number of museums to rethink entirely their relations with their environment. The (small) museology world appears to be in front of a crossroads. If we are to believe different papers and reports on the future of museums, these establishments seem indeed to turn into social environments. But two other plans may be also considered: on a geopolitical level and on an epistemological level. In geopolitical terms, the museum future appears to be Anglo-Saxon. At another – epistemological – level, one could question the very nature of museology. Since the late 60's, an important amount of museums theorists believe that the way of conceiving museology does not stand in the practical application of recipes on museums operations. Does the "specific approach of man to reality" show a clear program for museum research? Is there another possibility to consider museology?
Muzejní svět prochází v současnosti obdobím důležitých změn. Ekonomická krize přiměla mnohá muzea kompletně přehodnotit svůj vztah k okolnímu prostředí. Zdá se, že muzeologie stojí v současnosti na důležité křižovatce svého vývoje. Jak vyplývá z různých studií a zpráv týkajících se budoucnosti muzeí, tato zařízení se skutečně mění ve specifické sociální prostředí. O problému je možné uvažovat také ve dvou dalších rovinách – geopolitické a epistemologické. V geopolitickém smyslu se budoucnost muzeí jeví jako anglosaská. V epistemologické rovině bývá často zpochybňována samotná podstata muzeologie. Už od konce 60. let 20. století značná část muzejních teoretiků zastává názor, že muzeologická teorie neobstojí při aplikaci svých postupů v muzejní praxi. Nabízí "specifický přístup člověka k realitě" nějaký jasný program pro muzeologii jako vědeckou disciplínu? Existuje vůbec nějaká jiná možnost, jak uvažovat o muzeologii?
