This book aims to advance the understanding of cultural property in
armed conflict, and its significance for anti-terrorism and
peace-building strategies. As the author argues, ISIS' orchestrated
theft and destruction of cultural property has become a tactic of
war. Through a historical, political, and legal analysis, this book
explains the pathology of radical groups' behavior toward cultural
objects as part of their terror campaign. Using constructivist
ideas, it explains the importance of cultural property in the
context of short-term and long-term security and analyzes the
evolution of laws and policies to protect it.
