Manlio Frigo - Abstract
This presentation focuses on the international practice in the field of cultural property disputes and examines the most effective and reliable dispute resolution methods in restitution and return of cultural property. Particularly in cases of disputes between Governmental authorities and foreign museums concerning the return or restitution of cultural property one of the privileged solutions may consist in negotiating contractual agreements. The recent international and Italian practice have proved that these agreements may either prevent any judicial steps or lead to a conclusion of pending administrative or judicial proceedings and have been successfully tested in recent years, more frequently within a wider frame of agreements of cultural cooperation. These agreements provide new forms of cooperation between the parties involved in such disputes and represent a mutually beneficial way-out with a view to a future of collaboration.
Francesco Sbisa Abstract
The conference presentation will deal with the protection of cultural heritage through the tools of criminal law and of the “231” corporate liability. Firstly, the focus will be on the recent inclusion of crimes related to the protection of cultural heritage in the 231 predicate offences and on the resulting impact on corporate internal organization, especially in terms of procedures and protocols (e.g., the due diligences in art transactions). Additionally, the presentation will examine relevant case studies.
