Description
Art Cultural Heritage and the Law: Cases and Materials 5th Edition ISBN 9781531032814
The intersection of law with art and cultural heritage is an increasingly dynamic and essential field. This growth is driven in part by the exponential rise in the value of the global art market, and in part by the prominent role cultural heritage plays in major global events—from armed conflicts to international security issues. In response to these developments, the fifth edition of Art, Cultural Heritage, and the Law offers new and updated materials that reflect the rapid evolution of the field.
Building on the foundational structure and interdisciplinary approach of previous editions, the fifth edition incorporates the most recent case law, including Zuckerman v. Metropolitan Museum of Art, Republic of Turkey v. Christie’s, Inc. and Steinhardt, and Andy Warhol Foundation v. Goldsmith. The addition of images of the artworks and cultural objects at the center of these disputes—including eight pages of full-color plates—enhances students’ understanding of the emotional and legal complexities involved.
This edition also includes analysis of recent statutory and regulatory developments, such as the Safeguard Tribal Objects of Patrimony (STOP) Act, updated regulations under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), UN Security Council Resolution 2347 on the protection of cultural heritage in the context of international security, and new EU regulations governing the import of cultural objects.
Expanded coverage is devoted to the relationship between cultural heritage and international human rights, as well as the growing focus on restitution of cultural objects removed during periods of colonialism, imperialism, and armed conflict.

-
Rental returns: free at semester's end, prorated if early
Print a prepaid return label from your account whenever you have finished with the book, and drop it at the carrier listed on the label. Returning it by your semester return date, or after it is already overdue, is free with no deduction. Returning it early, before that date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund.
-
Purchase returns: 15% restocking fee
Purchases can be returned within 30 days in the condition you received. We will email a prepaid return label; once we receive your book, we refund the purchase price minus the 15% restocking fee and the return label cost. Original shipping is non-refundable.

Shipping costs calculated at checkout
Real-time rates are quoted at checkout based on your address and the books in your cart. Returning your book by your semester date is always free; an early return deducts the restocking fee and label cost from your refund instead.
Rental Terms
Return by December 28, 2026 for Fall 2026 rentals.
- Late Fees
- Books returned after the semester deadline accrue a weekly late fee of about 10% of the book's Brand New price, for each copy that is overdue. The rent you have already paid counts toward the book's replacement value (its Brand New price), so late fees stop once your rent plus late fees reach it. That replacement value is the most a rental can ever cost you. We email a reminder 48 hours before any charge, and any late fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout.
- Damage Fees
- Books returned damaged beyond normal classroom wear may be assessed a damage fee, capped at the book's replacement value (its Brand New price). Any damage fees are charged to the payment method you save at checkout after we inspect the returned book.
- Return Shipping
- Returning your book is free with no deduction if it reaches us by your semester return date, or after it's already overdue. Print a prepaid label (USPS or UPS, whichever is cheaper for your package) from your account's My Rentals page. Returning it EARLY, before your semester return date, deducts a 15% restocking fee and the label cost from your refund, the same as cancelling a shipped rental for a refund.
- 30-Day Cancellation
- Changed your mind? Cancel an active rental within 30 days of your order from My Account → My Rentals. Cancel before your book ships and it’s free; once it has shipped, we refund the rental price minus a 15% restocking fee and the return label cost, released once we receive your book. Shipping is non-refundable.
