This book queries, through the prism of the Convention for the Protection and the Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions (the Convention), the ways in which the processes and substance of international law-making have shifted in response to new technologies and new actors. The essays, written by recognised experts in the field, engage deeply with the practice under the Convention. The 4 parts examine: the rise of new actors and their impact on the Convention's law-making and implementation; the specific implementation of Article 21; the role of cultural communities in promoting diversity of cultural expressions; and the effectiveness and coherence of the Convention. Scholars and practitioners in the field of international law of culture and international cultural cooperation will welcome this fascinating new book.

"This book examines Soviet participation in UNESCO from when the country joined the UN agency in 1954 until the eve of détente in 1967, providing the first analysis of the Soviet reception of the idea of world governance through noncommunist international organizations. Situating the USSR's involvement in UNESCO in longer Soviet and Russian internationalist traditions, it tells the story of how the country went from boycotting UNESCO under Josef Stalin to embracing the organization in the years after his death"--

Pourquoi l’accès au savoir a-t-il constitué l’un des grands enjeux de la décolonisation ? C’est la question à laquelle cet ouvrage se propose de répondre en examinant le processus d’internationalisation de la politique éducative française en Afrique subsaharienne entre 1945 et 1961. Fondée sur une riche documentation archivistique, cette enquête met en lumière les relations qui se tissent entre la France, les autres puissances coloniales européennes et l’UNESCO, offrant une plongée unique au cœur des visions contrastées du développement et de la coopération internationale qui émergent au sortir de la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Le livre retrace plus particulièrement les échanges et les rivalités qui accompagnent l’élaboration de nouveaux paradigmes – en particulier l’éducation de base – et analyse de manière détaillée leur mise en application en Afrique occidentale et équatoriale française. Il dévoile enfin les multiples reconfigurations qui s’opèrent au moment des indépendances, fournissant un éclairage inédit sur la genèse de l’aide au développement. Drawing on extensive archival research, this book examines the internationalization of French educational policy in sub-Saharan Africa between 1945 and 1961. It particularly highlights the contrasting visions of modernization and international cooperation that emerged after the Second World War, providing new insights into the end of empires and the rise of development aid.

« Dans quelle mesure le positionnement pluriel du musée vis-à-vis du trafic illicite de biens culturels conditionne-t-il son action et ses obligations à l'encontre de ce fléau? Considérant la vulnérabilité du musée face au trafic illicite de biens culturels (de par son éventuel statut de victime), mais également sa potentielle responsabilité dans la persistance du trafic (de par son activité d'enrichissement des collections), le musée est saisi à double titre par les problématiques de trafic illicite. Cette ambivalence trouve écho dans la singularité du trafic illicite de biens culturels, qui coexiste et se développe en parallèle d'un marché licite. La lutte contre le trafic illicite de biens culturels telle que menée par l'entité muséale s'inscrit dans un cadre juridique nécessairement élevé au niveau international, considérant la nature transfrontalière du trafic, et dans un cadre éthique largement façonné et mûri par ses propres sujets, les musées et professionnels de musées. Cette mission de protection du patrimoine culturel s'inscrit dans une réflexion plus large autour de la construction du paysage muséal de demain : une communauté muséale où les retours et restitutions de biens culturels volés ou illicitement exportés sont indissociables de la lutte contre le trafic illicite. »--Page 4 de la couverture.

"Almost fifty years have passed since the adoption of the Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage (the UNESCO World Heritage Convention). With its 194 States Parties, it is the most widely ratified convention within the family of UNESCO treaties on the protection of cultural heritage. Since the publication of the first edition, new problems have arisen in the management of world heritage sites. It has become increasingly difficult to properly monitor the conservation of the ever-growing mass of sites inscribed in the World Heritage List, and to resolve disputes over the formal designation of contested world heritage properties - a problem that has led to the withdrawal of the United States and Israel from UNESCO. New frontiers are now being tested for the expansion of the world heritage idea over marine areas beyond national jurisdiction, and the monopoly of the State in the identification, delineation, and presentation of world heritage properties is being increasingly challenged in the name of indigenous peoples' rights and by local communities claiming ownership over contested cultural sites. At the same time, the regime of world heritage protection has infiltrated other areas of international law, especially international economic law, investment arbitration, and the area of international criminal law. This second edition critically examines the World Heritage Convention against this dynamic evolution of international heritage law, to help academics, lawyers, diplomats and officials interpret and apply the norms of the Convention after half a century of uninterrupted implementing practice by State Parties and Treaty Bodies"--

This open access book explores the past and present of Quanzhou (Zayton) and the rich diversity and tolerance that kindled Quanzhou’s innovativeness and helped it prosper both commercially and culturally—values that are today being embraced by China’s global trade partners. Quanzhou (Zayton), Marco Polo’s port of departure and Columbus’ goal in China, was not only the start of the Maritime Silk Road and the Middle Age’s greatest port but also centuries ahead of its time in its tolerance and diversity. The fabled “City of Light” had 7 mosques for its 40,000 Muslims, some of whom served in government, as well as 3 Franciscan cathedrals funded in part by the emperor, Jewish synagogues, and centers for Nestorian Christians, Hindus, Taoists, Manicheans, Jains, etc. As Franciscan Bishop Andrew of Perugia wrote in 1322, “Tis a fact that in this vast empire, there are people of every nation under heaven, and every sect, and all and sundry are allowed to live freely according to their creed.” In 2021, UNESCO designated “Quanzhou, Emporium of the World,” as a world heritage site, and the city is now the hub of the Belt and Road Initiative, the 21st Century Silk Road, which was inspired by ancient Quanzhou.

Cet ouvrage présente les résultats des fouilles subaquatiques menées sur un site cultuel de la période romaine immergé dans les eaux du lac du Bourget. Les vestiges mis au jour à Conjux témoignent de l'existence d'un lieu de culte implanté à l'origine près de la berge, à l'interface entre la terre et l'eau. Aujourd'hui isolé à plusieurs centaines de mètres de la rive, à quelques mètres de profondeur, il se compose des restes de plus d'un millier de petits piquets en bois dans l'environnement desquels ont été découverts des reliefs de pratiques rituelles en position primaire. L'importance scientifique du site, en raison notamment de sa rareté et de l'excellent état de conservation de ses vestiges, justifiait de mener une enquête approfondie pour en comprendre son organisation et sa fonction. L'ouvrage présente tout d'abord les recherches conduites sur le site, de la découverte à la valorisation des résultats, ainsi que la méthodologie d'intervention. Il est ensuite replacé dans son contexte géohistorique et archéologique avec une réflexion sur les variations du niveau du lac dans l'Antiquité face à l'impact conjoint de l'Homme et du climat. Les contributions de spécialistes permettent ensuite de présenter les vestiges par catégorie fonctionnelle avec une large place accordée aux éléments en bois. Une riche synthèse regroupe l'ensemble des données examinées en regard d'autres sources documentaires. Les centaines de datations dendrochronologiques autorisent à modéliser, année après année, le développement du site et de mieux comprendre son fonctionnement. L'examen des éléments matériels favorise la restitution des gestes et des pratiques, pour certaines insoupçonnées, telles que l'association de monnaies à des piquets en bois. La présence de ces très nombreux éléments invite à une réflexion sur les usages pratiques et symboliques de la matière ligneuse dans les contextes cultuels et sur les croyances qui leur étaient associées. Le croisement des données permet enfin…
