description Central to the classification of homogenous national identities and cultures and the exclusion of “others” (external and internal), the museum was strongly linked to the consolidation of modern national states and colonialism. In contrast, and in line with new multiculturalist contexts, demands in terms of ethnicity and struggles of different social minorities for their rights, it is expected that current museums may give rise to a diversity of identities silenced and / or historically represented from hegemonic canons. This article proposes a journey through the critical bibliography of the museums of the last decades, distinguishing some contributions of the Anthropology that give account of the transformation of these institutions in highly politicized arenas, where subalternized groups question the power relations and decide their inclusion and self-representation. Finally, it focuses on Afro-descendant representations in Argentina as a particularly relevant ground for reflecting on and discussing the supposed transparency of the relationships between “culture”, “identity” and museum.
