Download or read book Intentional Destruction of Cultural Heritage and the Law written by Alberta Fabbricotti and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-09-09 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world has been shocked by the destruction of world cultural heritage sites over the past two decades, as seen in widely disseminated videos depicting events such as the demolition of the Buddhas of Bamiyan and the ancient Syrian city of Palmyra. These acts are perhaps the clearest and most glaring examples of what is meant by the ‘Intentional Destruction of the Cultural Heritage of Humankind’ (IDCHH). The book explores in detail the remedies against IDCHH available under international law. These remedies are defined as all the lawful responses provided for both by customary law and by the special responsibility regimes created under the many substantive areas of international law. The examination includes UNESCO instruments and UN measures for the maintenance of international peace, mechanisms for the protection of human rights and those for the protection of investments, and international criminal justice outcomes through the decisions of the Permanent Criminal Court. Thus, the book explores avenues for response such as appeals to international courts, peacekeeping operations and referrals to the criminal legislation of States, in addition to reparations. The concept of the Cultural Heritage of Humankind implies that IDCHH harms all States and all peoples and human groupings in the world, not only the State or people on whose territory the cultural property is located. The book identifies the international law avenues for subjects not directly injured by IDCHH to obtain its cessation and reparation. This book is essential reading for students, academics and practitioners exploring international law and the destruction of cultural heritage.

Download or read book Cultural Property Crime and the Law written by Michelle D. Fabiani and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-04-23 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores innovative approaches to using and operating within and around both criminal law and civil law in the detection, investigation, and restitution of illicit cultural property. The volume brings together a wide range of authors who research and work in combatting cultural property crime. It explores the normative tensions and intersections between civil and criminal law and where they complement each other in the field. It focuses on innovative legal solutions to the unique challenges presented when facing a transnational form of crime that must consider varying structures of law and order, as well as a deep understanding of the heritage in question, both in past and the present cultures. The collection examines what both areas of law contribute to preventing cultural property crime from occurring, holding offenders responsible before the law, and returning objects to their rightful owners and/or places of origin. Combining the perspectives of academics and practitioners, the volume highlights voices from around the globe, using this range of experience to explore new ideas and applications of legal theory and practice to cases involving cultural property crimes. The book will be of interest to academics and practitioners in cultural property crime in the fields of criminology, law, archaeology, museum studies, political science, economics, and law enforcement.

Download or read book International Courts versus Non Compliance Mechanisms written by Christina Voigt and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2024-02-29 with total page 529 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the best mechanisms for helping bring about compliance with international treaties. In recent years, many international treaties have included non-compliance mechanisms (NCMs) to facilitate implementation and promote parties' compliance with their obligations. These NCMs exist alongside the formal dispute resolution processes of international courts and tribunals. The authors bring together a wide legal and geographical spectrum of views from different parts of the world representing novel insights into NCMs' contribution to treaty implementation and compliance. The research has cast important light on how procedural innovations may help render NCMs more effective, as well as on the circumstances in which they may be needed, including particularly where nations share common interests, populations are interdependent, and implementation makes significant administrative, regulatory and political demands. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Download or read book Le crime contre l humanit written by Jean-François Roulot and published by Editions L'Harmattan. This book was released on 2002 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les crimes contre l'humanité ont été formulés pour la première fois dans l'Accord de Londres du 8 août 1945. Cette notion, appliquée en réaction aux atrocités commises par les nazis, a connu ensuite une éclipse dans sa pratique pénale en droit international. Certes, à partir de 1966 l'apartheid a été à plusieurs reprises qualifié par les organes de l'ONU de crime contre l'humanité. Toutefois, aucune procédure pénale n'a été intentée. Il faut donc admettre que de Nuremberg jusqu'à la résolution 827 adoptée le 25 mai 1993 par le Conseil de sécurité de l'ONU qui porte création d'un tribunal pour réprimer les crimes commis dans l'ex-Yougoslavie, la notion de crime contre l'humanité n'a pas été appliquée pénalement en droit international. La résolution 955 du Conseil de sécurité du 8 novembre 1994 instaure un second tribunal compétent pour les crimes commis au Rwanda en 1994 et confirme le retour de l'application pénale de la notion de crime contre l'humanité en droit international. Cependant ces deux tribunaux précités ne possèdent qu'une compétence ad hoc. Aujourd'hui avec l'instauration de la Cour pénale internationale, il faut espérer que la répression se généralise à tous les crimes commis. Les problèmes qui se posent aux juridictions internationales sont alors multiples. Il s'agit d'appliquer une norme dont la définition, à l'exception du génocide, n'a fait l'objet d'aucune convention internationale. En outre l'application de la notion de crime contre l'humanité est intimement liée au maintien de la paix ce qui n'est pas toujours compatible avec l'impératif de justice.
