Nothing to Link to: Linked Open Data and the Colonial Archive

Research output: Contribution to conferencePaperScientificpeer-review

Abstract

This paper seeks to address the limitations imposed by existing reference vocabularies on modeling non-“Western” concepts as Linked Open Data (LOD) and how to mitigate them, using the GLOBALISE project as a case study. These limitations risk re-enforcing archival absences and colonial viewpoints if left unaddressed by digital history projects dealing with colonial archives.
