Book TUTELA E VALORIZZAZIONE DEI BENI CULTURALI

Download or read book TUTELA E VALORIZZAZIONE DEI BENI CULTURALI written by GIUSEPPE ALBENZIO and published by AMBIENTEDIRITTO.it - EDITORE. This book was released on 2018-11-18 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'art. 9 della Costituzione, riconosce alla tutela del patrimonio artistico e storico nazionale un valore primario e assoluto. Su questa premessa, con riferimento alle peculiarità proprie della disciplina dei beni culturali (fra cui meritava una particolare trattazione, ad hoc, l’affascinante settore dei beni culturali d’interesse religioso), il volume offre una trattazione analitica della complessa tematica, concepita nella sua duplice e pregnante finalità di assicurare, da un lato, la maggiore fruibilità possibile del patrimonio culturale (così da realizzare un aspetto dirimente della valorizzazione) e, al contempo, contribuire ad accrescere tutte le potenzialità di “sfruttamento economico” derivanti dal ‘nuovo’ diritto di accesso ai beni culturali. I beni culturali vengono trattati come una realtà economico-sociale, in forma accessibile anche al non giurista, a chiunque si interessi dei problemi di gestione, amministrazione, conservazione del patrimonio culturale e voglia approfondirne gli aspetti giuridico-amministrativi. Vengono approfondite anche le ‘nuove’ forme del partenariato pubblico-privato, nonché, più in generale, tutti i ‘classici’ strumenti - si pensi alle Fondazioni - concretamente posti a disposizione per la promozione e lo sviluppo di ogni ‘manifestazione’ culturale, secondo un modello - che sia il più aperto possibile - di tipo interdisciplinare. Un supporto, veramente, pratico per tutti gli addetti chiamati ad operare in questo particolare settore: il testo si rivolge a giuristi ed avvocati, agli storici dell’arte e alle amministrazioni di settore, alle associazioni e ai cultori della materia nonché agli studenti di conservazione e di diritto dei beni culturali. L’opera si completa con l’aggiornamento costante on line del Codice dei beni culturali e ambientali annotato con la giurisprudenza e la dottrina curato dalla Rivista AmbienteDiritto.it

Book Rethinking Cultural Policy

Download or read book Rethinking Cultural Policy written by Jim McGuigan and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 2004-03-16 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “a fascinating, thorough and expertly argued discussion of the modes and practices of cultural policy in an increasingly globalized and neoliberal world.” European Journal of Communication Rethinking Cultural Policy addresses issues concerning culture, economy and power in the age of new-liberal globalization. It examines how public cultural policies have been rationalized in the past and how they are being rethought. Arguing that the study of culture and policy should not be confined to prevailing governmental agendas, the book offers a distinctive and independent analysis of cultural policy. The book examines a wide range of issues in cultural policy and blends a close reading of key theories with case studies. Topics covered include: Branding culture and exploitation The state, market and civil society How visitor attractions such as London's Millennium Dome are used for national aggrandizement and corporate business purposes Cultural development, diversity and ecological tourism in poorer parts of the world This is the ideal introduction to contemporary cultural policy for undergraduate students in culture and media studies, sociology of culture, politics, arts administration and cultural management courses, as well as postgraduates and researchers.

Book Who Benefits from the Nonprofit Sector

Download or read book Who Benefits from the Nonprofit Sector written by Charles T. Clotfelter and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1992-10-15 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over a million nonprofit organizations, from day-care centers and neighborhood churches to major research universities and metropolitan hospitals, are currently relied upon to deliver an array of essential social services. This is in keeping with a historical conviction that private voluntary action, as opposed to government intervention, should address as many of the nation's social needs as possible. But just how much to rely on the nonprofit sector is the question at the center of a growing debate. Critics challenge the assumption that nonprofit organizations have successfully directed much of their benefits toward the poor and disadvantaged - an assumption that has to date justified favorable tax treatment for donations and nonprofit operations. Who Benefits from the Nonprofit Sector? examines all the major elements of the nonprofit sector - health services, educational and research institutions, religious organizations, social services, arts and cultural organizations, and foundations - describing each institution and its function, and then exploring how their benefits are distributed across various economic classes. The book's findings indicate that while few institutions serve primarily the poor, there is no evidence of a gross distribution of benefits upwards toward the more affluent. The source of an institution's funding is also shown to be an important determinant in how its benefits are distributed. They show, for example, that: . Nonprofit nursing homes and drug treatment centers have a lower concentration of Medicaid patients than their for-profit public counterparts do. Twenty-seven percent of social service agencies serve primarily the poor, and the large majority ofthese received most of their income from the federal government. The effective educational subsidy (i.e., cost of education less tuition) per person at both public and private univenities increases with income. The analysis of this data makes for a book with profound implications for future social and tax policy.

Book The Economics of Contemporary Art

Download or read book The Economics of Contemporary Art written by Alessia Zorloni and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-16 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book examines the contemporary art system with a broad and systematic approach, through the application of models of microeconomics and industrial organizations. By breaking down the traditional barriers between different academic disciplines such as art and economics, this book offers a unique opportunity to grasp the complexities of the contemporary art world and provides the tools to conduct a structural analysis of that market. The result is an in-depth analysis of the contemporary art market from an interdisciplinary perspective. While it is not a textbook in the strictest sense, the book offers a concise and effective overview of all actors in the art system, and provides supporting data and valuable information, both conceptual and practical. It is therefore a text that can be used by students wishing to better understand the complex dynamics that govern the contemporary art market, but also by cultural managers, collectors, potential art investors or simply art lovers who need a quick reference.​

Book Globalization and Common Responsibilities of States

Download or read book Globalization and Common Responsibilities of States written by Koen De Feyter and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a growing awareness that international law insufficiently protects common global interests and that States and non-State actors need to work together to protect global aims. The focus of this book is on the different fields of international law where there is a need for global cooperation to achieve common aims, for example: the law of the sea; protection of world cultural heritage; sustainable development, biological diversity and climate change; human rights; and international crimes. The volume also identifies the legal developments which have taken place, for example treaties which use the language of ’common heritage of mankind’ or ’common concern of humanity’, thereby identifying global concerns and reflecting a global set of values and interests independent of the interests of States.

Book Italy and its Discontents 1980 2001

Download or read book Italy and its Discontents 1980 2001 written by Paul Ginsborg and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2003-01-30 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this long-awaited book (already a major bestseller in Italy) Ginsborg has created a fascinating, sophisticated and definitive account of how Italy has coped, or failed to cope, with the past two decades. Contemporary Italy strongly mirrors Britain - the countries have roughly the same extent, population size and GNP - and yet they are fantastically different. Ginsborg sees this difference as most fundamentally clear in the role of the family and it is the family which is at the heart of Italian politics and business. Anyone wishing to understand contemporary Italy will find it essential to have this enormously attractive and intelligent book.

Book Tutela e valorizzazione del patrimonio culturale

Download or read book Tutela e valorizzazione del patrimonio culturale written by FREGNI MARIA CECILIA and published by G Giappichelli Editore. This book was released on 2021-12-17 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il patrimonio culturale contribuisce alla piena realizzazione di ogni essere umano e deve essere considerato un bene comune, da custodire e valorizzare a beneficio delle generazioni presenti e future. Il volume analizza le principali e più attuali tematiche che la gestione e valorizzazione del patrimonio culturale presenta da un punto di vista giuridico, seguendo un approccio interdisciplinare e prestando particolare attenzione agli aspetti applicativi degli istituti normativi, esaminati anche in riferimento ad alcuni concreti beni d’eccezionale valore. I saggi contenuti nel volume sono redatti da studiosi specializzati nelle diverse discipline giuridiche che concorrono alla regolamentazione della materia (diritto internazionale, costituzionale, amministrativo, tributario, penale, ecclesiastico, dell’Unione europea) nonché da esperti con importanti funzioni operative; essi analizzano tanto questioni di carattere generale, affrontate comunque in una prospettiva attenta ai più recenti sviluppi (il significato e la portata della tutela del patrimonio culturale nella Costituzione, l’impatto delle norme internazionali sulla tutela dei beni culturali sia in tempo di pace che in tempo di conflitto armato, il ruolo della repressione penale nella protezione dei beni culturali) sia problemi più specifici emergenti nell’attuale dibattito giuridico (l’istituto della “impresa culturale e creativa”; le sponsorizzazioni di beni culturali; la diversità linguistica come componente del patrimonio culturale, la disciplina dei cammini e delle vie di pellegrinaggio; la sentenza della Corte penale internazionale relativa al caso di Timbuktu). Caratterizzano altresì l’opera alcuni saggi volti ad illustrare i problemi e le prospettive che si evidenziano nella gestione concreta di alcuni beni di particolare rilevanza, caratterizzanti il territorio, quali il sito Unesco di Modena (inserito, in ragione dell’eccezionale valore universale, nella Lista del patrimonio mondiale istituita dalla Convenzione di Parigi del 1972) e i musei universitari. Ciò allo scopo di favorire un dialogo tra studiosi e operatori, dal quale possano emergere nuove linee di sviluppo della regolamentazione giuridica.
