“Exhibiting Europe marks the first critical analysis of the process of Europeanization of museums. I recommend the book to anyone interested in Europe and museum practitioners.” · H-Soz-Kult “This study is an impressive synthesis in clear accessible language of the complex process of Europeanization of museums. It illuminates the connections between European debates and practices in academia, the public, politics and museums.” · Werkstatt Geschichte “I recommend this book as a meticulous and illuminating history of the development of the European ideal, the political background to the European Parliament’s House of European History to be opened in 2015, and as an insightful examination of the thoughts and arguments of pro-Europeans and how history is understood, by some politicians, as an Orwellian instrument to control the masses.” · Museum Anthropology
