| Summary: | Collecting, preserving and promoting cultural goods, whether fine art, archaeological objects or decorative arts, is now global. Oddly, rules and practices have remained very local, save for ICOM's efforts at the institutional level and UNESCO's endeavours to help preserve national cultural heritage and combat illicit trafficking. This book is designed to help the collector and their advisers navigate the maze on an international level. Each chapter of this book addresses a number of issues from the perspective of a different jurisdiction to help collectors making errors that could be potentially illegal. The format of the chapters follow a question and answer style thus enabling readers to make quick and accurate comparisons in multiple jurisdictions covering property law, insurance, customs, tax, inheritance, intellectual property and more. |
