Keeping their marbles

Book • 2016
In 'Keeping Their Marbles', Tiffany Jenkins delves into the complex history of how Western museums obtained cultural artifacts, often through coercion or theft.

She argues that these artifacts should remain in museums as centers of knowledge, rather than being repatriated, as they contribute to a broader understanding of global culture.

Jenkins challenges the notion that repatriation can repair historical wounds or achieve social change.
