民族学博物馆作为民族学与人类学伴生的产物,成为异文化物品收集和展示的场所。自20世纪60年代起,在后现代主义、后殖民主义的思潮下,人类学内部开始对该学科具有的西方中心主义和殖民主义色彩进行反思和批评。在此影响下,民族学博物馆也不得不重新思考其未来发展之路,即在当今全球化和多元文化的环境下,民族学博物馆如何重新定位自身的职能及使命。 As a product of ethnology and anthropology, Ethnology Museum has become a place where different cultural objects can be collected and displayed. Since the 1960s, under the postmodernism and post-colonialism, anthropology began to reflect and criticize the Western centrism and colonialism that the subject possesses. Under this influence, the Ethnological Museum also had to rethink the way of its future development, that is, in today’s globalized and multicultural environment, the Ethnological Museum has relocated its functions and mission.
