Abstract | This article details our exploration of the ways in which gender, militarism, and learning intersect in war museums in Canada, England, and Europe. We outline our theoretical framework of feminist antimilitarism, grounded in adult education; discuss research about museums in general and war museums in particular; and, explain our methodology of feminist discourse analysis and visual analysis. We focus on an element that is typically not a central point of analysis in research about war museums: the pedagogical and gendered representation of civilians. Our findings indicate that civilians are underrepresented, in comparison to soldiers, in war museums, but that, when they are present, they are discursively constructed in ways that teach civilians to be part of the war machine by: leveraging civilian deaths, militarising civilians as soldiers, and stereotyping women civilians. We conclude with suggestions for museum directors, curators, and adult educators to work together to problematise how war is remembered. (As Provided). |
