This book was released on 2020-08-16 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is cash still king? With card payments now overtaking cash for the first time ever as reported in media 2017 (morning advertiser, Accessed 2019) coupled with the rise of 1000s of cryptocurrencies, does this mean that cash now takes a back seat? Electronic transference of currency from one bank account to another anywhere in the world is not new, and with the strict guidelines that the banking institutions adhere to these transactions can be tracked from source to destination. However, some national banks; and indeed, some of the Governments that regulate them are not trustworthy. Chaum (1982) proposed 'blind' cryptography which protects payees' anonymity from invasion. The founder of Mt Gox said to be the world's largest Bitcoin exchange at the time; was charged and later convicted of instigating a drug auction site called 'Silk Road', selling illicit drugs on-line for payment to be made in Bitcoin only (Scannell, 2015). Criminals commit their crimes for profit therefore the digital currency is a perfect place for criminals to hide their financial affairs. Payments being made as a result of money laundering, blackmail, extortion or tax evasion, can be moved seamlessly to anywhere in the world with few or no records tying an individual to 'monies'. A digital wallet is used as an interface to your cryptocurrency, where you store and commit transactions. Creating a digital wallet can be done anonymously and does not need 'linking' to any financial institutions. A digital wallet allows purchasing of goods and services anywhere in the world anonymously by using your digital wallets address. After downloading a digital wallets executable program, it needs to be installed on the device being used. Part of this process entails producing a unique digital key or commonly known as a wallet's address. Currently Microsoft Windows could be classed as the de facto operating system worldwide, with Windows 10 being the latest version. Most owners are all too familiar with installing and uninstalling programs. Once an application has been uninstalled can analysis identify any evidence (digital) artefacts left on the host computer?

Download or read book The 1970 UNESCO and 1995 UNIDROIT Conventions on Stolen or Illegally Transferred Cultural Property written by and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-02-29 with total page 945 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The illicit traffic in cultural objects is a grave concern to the general public and international community. The resulting cultural damage fuels debates on how best to regulate the trade in cultural objects and inform legal responses at all levels for the protection of movable cultural heritage. Treaties concerning the treatment of cultural objects during peacetime and war represent some of the earliest multilateral initiatives on cultural heritage in the modern era. They also remain some of the most deeply contested, representing shifting fault lines within the international community. Authored by leading scholars and practitioners from around the world, this Commentary is the first to cover the two leading multilateral treaties on movable cultural heritage in one volume: the Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property adopted by UNESCO in 1970 and the Convention on Stolen or Illegally Exported Cultural Objects adopted by UNIDROIT in 1995. This Commentary is designed to be the authoritative text for academics, lawyers, policymakers, and diplomats on the protection and regulation of cultural objects. Encompassing both public and private international law rules on the trade in cultural objects, it provides a detailed historical and thematic overview. Drawing on the travaux preparatoires and intergovernmental and state practice over the last half century, the Commentary provides an article-by-article analysis of the interpretation and application of these treaties. The texts 1970 UNESCO and 1995 UNIDROIT Conventions are examined in the working context of other culture conventions including the World Heritage Convention and the Intangible Heritage Convention, as well as related fields of international law, such as international humanitarian law, international criminal law, human rights law, and international economic law. The volume also offers a critical examination of current trends and future directions which are informing the field.
