在伦敦的帝国战争博物馆，英国公民和国际游客通过互动式展览、主题咖啡馆和礼品店沉浸在“战争中的英国”的故事中，这些活动激发了他们的感官，精心设计了身体运动，并激发了他们的灵魂。博物馆的自动人种学包括追踪一个人在这个空间里的感官互动、运动和消费。嵌入话语分析（还包括策展人的报告和游客的在线评论）的自动人种志揭示了游客战争经历的精心塑造的特征。它记录了博物馆工程师如何影响，并在此过程中促进了英国发动“正义战争”的想法，从而加强了对其当前和未来海外干预的国际支持。
At the Imperial War Museum in London, UK citizens and international tourists immerse themselves into stories of ‘Britain at war’ through interactive exhibits, themed cafes, and gift shops that engage them affectively: they stimulate the senses, choreograph bodily movement, and stir the soul. Auto-ethnography at the museum involves the tracing of one’s sensory interactions, movements, and consumption within this space. Embedded in a discourse analysis that also includes curators’ reports and visitors’ online reviews, auto-ethnography reveals the crafted character of visitors’ experiences of war. It documents how the museum engineers affect and, in so doing, promotes the idea that the UK wages ‘just wars’, thus reinforcing international support for its current and future interventions abroad.
