Abstract
The emergence of the 'new museology' in the 1980s heralded a critical turn in museum practice. In 1984 the Declaration of Quebec, issued by the International Council of Museums (ICOM), affirmed the social mandate of museums and responded to postcolonial voices that drew attention to the embedded power relations in the previously taken-for-granted museum practices of collection, interpretation, conservation and exhibition. The new museology movement was not defined by a single perspective but called for a more critical, reflexive approach to museum practice, a move away from limited operational concerns to an intellectual engagement with issues of representation, ownership, community-elations and curatorial authority.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
