Indeterminacy in the cultural property restitution debate
- Title
- Indeterminacy in the cultural property restitution debate
- Description
- The debate over the restitution of cultural property is usually framed as the dispute between what John Henry Merryman defined as 'cultural nationalism' and 'cultural internationalism': the opposite viewpoints that argue whether cultural heritage objects should be returned to their countries of origin or spread around the world as determined by other principles. [The author] argues that the concepts are problematic both in their definition and their perception as two dialectically opposed sides of a dispute.
