dc.description.abstract	The key functions of historical structures and artefacts are to uphold the heritage of a community, shape the community's identity, promote social cohesion, and spark conversations on societal issues. Refilwe Mashigo applies findings from a Cameroon study to the recent debate on historical monuments in South Africa and concludes that, for museums to play their role in serving the public, they must remain free from political control.	en
