In recent years controversial cases such as the so-called Elgin
Marbles have prompted public debate on the return of cultural
treasures to their homelands. In this fully revised and expanded
third edition of her seminal work, first published in 2007,
Jeanette Greenfield analyzes and discusses the historical, legal
and political issues surrounding a wide cross-section of similar
cases. Bringing the story up to date, this edition includes new
chapters on wartime plunders, deliberately destroyed art and the
return of ethnic art such as Australian aboriginal and Native
American art. It also explores the palaeontological and marine
archaeology issues at play and examines new approaches taken by
museums when dealing with cultural objects and their return.
Written in a highly accessible style with an interdisciplinary
approach, this book will appeal to a wide range of readers
interested in cultural heritage, archaeology and anthropology,
museums, art history and international law.
