Crime in the Art and Antiquities World: Illegal Trafficking in Cultural Property by Manacorda, Stefano [Editor]; Chappell, Duncan [Editor];

Near fine copy. No markings. The theft, trafficking and falsification of cultural property/heritage are crimes of a particularly complex nature, that often have international ramifications and signifi-ant economic consequences. Organised criminal groups of various types and origins are involved in these illegal acts. The book Crime in the Art and Antiquities World contains both contributions from researchers specialising in the illegal trafficking of art as well as contributions from representatives of international institutions involved with prevention and detection of cultural property related crimes, such as Interpol and UNESCO. In the back of the book is an Annex that includes the existing legal texts, i.e. international treaties, conventions, resolutions, etc. which do not yet exist in a single volume. This makes it a unique and useful reference for scholars and private and public bodies alike.
