Advies aan EU over roofkunstclaims: ‘Agentschap kan orde scheppen in de juridische chaos’
Met welke praktische stappen kunnen we internationale claims op roofkunst correct afhandelen en illegale handel in kunst tegengaan? Het Europees Parlement stelde die vraag aan Leids jurist Evelien Campfens. Haar advies: ontwikkel een registratiesysteem, voorzie kunst van een ‘paspoort’, en richt een…
