Interpretation and literacy as communication-management tool

The basic (pre)request to do any work properly is to know what we want to gain as well what path(s) we could take. To be efficient (in any/whatever way, which is demanded today) we must be aware of as many as possible up to now known successful, or not exactly the same, practices as well as their theoretical background. In other word we need to learn, or to do any work properly we need to be educated. Heritage/museum management is not an isolated island, all said above is valid here too. It is a complex and demanding task where a word management indeed could be associate with collections, research, promotion or any other task within museum or heritage related work. When successful, it will always show the compound multidisciplinary approach. Interpretation, not surprisingly, often plays a key role in this process. Contemporary understanding of heritage/museum management, by professionals as well as by laymen must consider all the relevant specific factors, foremost the social or economic ones beside essential preservation. Heritage/museum management tends towards ensuring tangible benefits for local communities and in this way towards the development of society in general. Critical heritage studies have significantly influenced the perception of heritage over the last decade. Stress on the participative and inclusive approach has become crucial, where multi/polyvocality is self-evident. While the aforementioned became regular buzzwords today, we are looking for their origins.
