There are large political and economic
vested interests in how individuals and groups perceive themselves and
how they perceive, and are perceived by, others. At stake are
issues of identity, self-esteem, political loyalty, and
the politics of patriotism and of ethnic identity. Whose history
is to be preserved and presented? Whose account is to be
presented? How neutral can libraries, museums, textbooks,
and the interpretations of historic sites be?
The nature and political sensitivity of cultural
heritages and ethnic identity force attention to basic issues
concerning the nature and impact
of information and its presentation beyond those usually
studied in relation to information managment and information systems.
