This book explores the objects, means and ends of international
cultural heritage protection. It starts from a broad conception of
cultural heritage that encompasses both tangible property, such as
museum objects or buildings, and intangible heritage, such as
languages and traditions. Cultural heritage thus defined is
protected by various legal regimes, including the law of armed
conflicts, UNESCO Conventions and international criminal law. With
a view to strengthening international protection, the authors
analyze existing regimes and elaborate innovative concepts, such as
blue helmets of culture and safe havens for endangered cultural
heritage. Finally, the ends of international protection come to the
fore, and the authors address possible conflicts between protecting
cultural diversity and wishes to strengthen cultural identity.

The 2nd edition of "Exercises in The Law of Nations" also seeks to
impart case processing skills to students, in addition to the
repetition and consolidation of substantive knowledge, because only
substantive knowledge AND the ability to correctly use it in case
resolution lead to written examination success. The book
preliminarily presents the test that is commonly expected in
written examinations for responsibility based on the law of
nations, and largely follows the structures of the ILC Draft
Articles on State Responsibility of 2001 in doing so. The theory
thus communicated should be translated in practice by the readers
into the subsequent (from now on) 21 exercise tasks of varying
degree of difficulty. Written solutions are conducive to
self-control. Written literature references, in particular to
current developments, simplify the consolidation. An index of
important international judicature rounds out the volume.
