Restoring the Law of Restitution of Cultural Property

This book covers the restoration of the law of restitution of cultural property, matching the time, space and depth dimensions of the law with the time, space and ontology of events that violated persons and desecrated their heritage in the colonial era. It will be useful to researchers of cultural property law and heritage studies.
