Sedamdesete godine dvadesetog stoljeća kreirale su nov odnos muzeja i društva, ponajprije kroz formu eko-muzeja. U međuvremenu se društvo, kontekst u kojem muzeji djeluju, značajno promijenilo. Eko-muzeji i pokret nove muzeologije su, iako izvorno odgovarajući na potrebe ondašnjeg trenutka, svojim konceptom teritorija, baštine, identiteta i razvoja, te (lokalne) zajednice kao osnovnog nositelja procesa, anticipirali mnoga suvremena teorijska i praktična promišljanja. U međuvremenu su tradicionalni (klasični) muzeji preuzeli dio iskustva ekomuzeja dok su i sami eko-muzeji evoluirali i stvorili nove oblike pojavnosti. Namjera je rada kritički sagledati razvoj i inovacije eko-muzeja i nove muzeologije, te pokazati primjenljivost i upotrebljivost ovog koncepata u današnjim, promijenjenim društvenim okolnostima. The 1970’s created a new relation between museums and the society, most of all through the concept of ecomuseum. In the meantime, the society – the context in which museums exist - has changed considerably. While originally responding to the needs of the moment, with their concept of territory, heritage, identity and development, and (local) community as the basic pillar of the process, ecomuseums and the new museology movement anticipated many contemporary theoretical and practical discussions. In the meantime, traditional (classic) museums took over some of the experience from ecomuseums, while ecomuseums themselves evolved and created new forms of manifestation. The intention of this paper is to provide a critical insight into the development and innovations of ecomuseums and the new museology, and show the applicability and usability of this concept in today’s changed social circumstances.
