DESCRIPTION
Address at the European Museum Advisors Conference 2012. Defends deaccession in deaccession averse countries within the context of the emergent financial crisis, and the increasing interference of finance ministries and external advisors in daily museum management. Clear guidelines, transparency, self-regulation are the best protection against external top-down decisions on what museums can do away with.
