This paper includes: a discussion of the development of global museology; secondly, identity, cultural diversity and interdisciplinarity in relation to museology; thirdly some seventeenth and eighteenth century protoypes of globalisation in Latin America; fourthly the future of museums, relics and memorial sites of former totatlitarian regimes in Europe and finally the educational responsibilities of museums in the future. Terminology will be introduced, particularly the 4 terms Identity, Cultural Diversity, Interdisciplinarity and Globalisation. The museological issues are: the position of museums in a changing world; international communication and the amalgamation of civilisation; ethical requirements in cultural heritage management; and the educational role of museums. In relation to relics and memorial sites the situation after the collapse of totalitarian dictatorships will be discussed with the necessity for a museological code of ethics to promote the development of democracy and a brief speculation about possible developments in memorial education
