The Committee for Cultural Policy and the Cardozo Arts and Entertainment Law Journal (AELJ) will be hosting a symposium at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law in New York City on April 10, 2014 at 2 pm. Tentatively titled, Reform of U.S. Cultural Property Policy: Accountability, Transparency, and Legal Certainty, the event is a response to the forthcoming publication by William Pearlstein, A Proposal to Reform U.S. Law and Policy Relating to the International Exchange of Cultural Property, being published in AELJ’s Volume 32, Issue 2.
To continue to receive updates on the event and the final publication or have further questions, please email info@cardozoaelj.com.
"One group appears to be largely unregulated though-- the archaeological community...."
ReplyDeleteAh, was it ever thus?
Archaeologists have carved a niche for themselves that puts them outside the close scrutiny applicable to others; private collectors being the prime example.
I don't condemn them, just admire their canny manipulation of the system, which says more about those charged with looking after the heritage and the amount of wool pulled over ministerial eyes.
