It sounds a really interesting dissertation. The two books below are not specifically on museum education but might be interesting.

 

There is Memorial Museums: The Global Rush to Commemorate Atrocities (Berg, 2007) by Paul Williams.

 

And in a future issue of Museums Journal we are planning to review Museums and Restitution: New Practice, New Approaches (Ashgate, 2014) edited by Louise Tythacott and Kostas Arvantis

 

The recent Tate exhibition might also be relevant:

Hi Gem-mers

We were lucky enough to have a wonderful teaching student undertake a placement with us in February and March. She’s since gone back to uni, but has got in touch to ask for some help with her dissertation. She needs the details of “any literature that discusses tackling sensitive histories in museum education or along similar lines?”

Please can anyone help lovely Erin?

I would be really happy to make a reading list of suggestions for anyone who is interested.

Thanks in advance,
