Colonial Heritage, Power, and Contestation
Recent debates about the return of colonially looted heritage have furthered the discussions on decolonisation around the world, and have reignited questions surrounding “what is, and who owns, cultural heritage”. These discourses in the meaning, production and management of heritage – with a growing presence of themes that address “Latinities” – have gained greater visibility in Latin America and the Caribbean, as challenges surrounding cultural heritage arise more prominently worldwide. The attention on this region aims to contextualise the various theoretical, empirical, and critical perspectives in relation to the negotiation of decolonisation. Hence, this book focuses on the...
A Research Agenda for Comparative Law
This prescient Research Agenda explores how comparative law has developed significantly in this century, offering insights into different perspectives on its scope, methods and outlook. It addresses the similarities and differences between legal systems and traditions, expressing why pluralistic methodology strengthens comparative law as a discipline.
El ámbito de lo colectivo
Vivimos en sociedades donde el individuo constituye el centro de la mayoría de nuestras reflexiones y acciones, ya sean políticas, morales o de otro tipo. Esto es así, por lo menos, en las sociedades occidentales, aunque vemos cómo otras culturas, en las que lo colectivo tradicionalmente ha tenido un papel relevante, van experimentando cambios que tienden a orientarlas hacia ese paradigma individual. Decir que esto último sea positivo o negativo no es fácil, y tal vez es imposible. Lo que sí podemos asegurar, sin miedo a equivocarnos, es que el derecho no escapa de esa realidad —ya impuesta o que va imponiéndose— del paradigma individualista. En este sentido, advertimos que los s...

Routledge Handbook of Private Law and Sustainability
The Routledge Handbook of Private Law and Sustainability reflects on how the law can help tackle the current environmental challenges and make our societies more resilient to future crises. Sustainability has been high on the political agenda since the approval of the Sustainable Development Goals in 2015 and the EU Green Deal in 2019. The Green Agenda aims at making Europe the first climate‐neutral continent by 2050, but humanity persists in an ecological overshoot that puts at risk the survival of species, including that of our own. Drawing together a selection of leading thinkers in the field, this Handbook provides a curated overview of the most recent and relevant discussions for priv...
Research Handbook on Intellectual Property and Cultural Heritage
This important Research Handbook offers a comprehensive analysis of the intersections between intellectual property (IP) and cultural heritage law. It explores and compares how both have evolved and sometimes converged over time, how they increased tremendously in significance, as well as in economic value, despite the fact that the former mainly pertains to the private sphere, whilst the latter is considered a ‘common good’.
Der Schutz materieller Kulturgüter in Lateinamerika
The main reason why Latin America is a cultural diverse region is because of the indigenous peoples who inhabit it. That is why indigenous peoples' interests on their cultural property have to be taken into account when this matter is to be legally regulated in Latin American countries. In order to ascertain whether that has occurred, the book explores relevant legal instruments at the international and regional levels and compares national norms in some Latin American countries, particularly those concerning ownership. It concludes that recognition of indigenous interests in Latin American law on cultural property is still a pending task. Die Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Frage: Wie ist ...
