MUNOZ AREYZAGA, Eréndira. The Presence or Absence of Gender Perspective in Two Permanent Exhibits of the National Museum of Anthropology, Mexico: a Diagnostic Exercise Through the Analysis of its Exhibit Labels. Intervención (Méx. DF) [online]. 2019, vol.10, n.19, pp.51-63. Epub 20-Mar-2020. ISSN 2007-249X. https://doi.org/10.30763/intervencion.2019.19.208.
In archaeological museums, gender perspective promotes gender equality through its educational or public space potential for reflection and criticism to contribute to this subject, to achieve the vision of an inclusive museum, and to promote human rights. However, museums tend to build their discourses from an androcentric perspective, resulting in the erasure of women and their contribution to the development of societies, as well as their exclusion from the collective memory that the museums establish. This RESEARCH work presents a diagnostic exercise of two archaeological rooms at the National Museum of Anthropology (MNA for its acronym in Spanish) based on the analysis of the verbal discourse of its exhibit labels, which reveals the balance or imbalance between the representations of women and men and the logic that constructs or deconstructs androcentric discourses.
