Art and Cultural Heritage Law is one of the most complex, hybridized, areas of law. The field has evolved significantly over the past few decades - due to turbulent events and wars, the maturation of ethics and policies in the field, the proliferation of creative industries, and the emergence of new and disruptive technologies.
This Encyclopedia is the most comprehensive reference work in the field. It combines public and private international law perspectives, while transcending the traditional confines of cultural heritage protection.
Bringing together renowned authors from over 60 countries, the Encyclopedia covers the history, evolution, and current state of the field. It sheds light on the rules, institutions, and processes related to this transversal domain of international cooperation, as well as state practices concerning the implementation of international commitments, good practices, and dispute resolution.
This unique multidisciplinary reference work is addressed to a range of readers: from academics, researchers and students to practitioners, policy makers and general knowledge seekers.
