Kulturgüterschutz

Zusatztext

As irretrievable evidence of intellectual and historical development, cultural property is of vital importance to every society. In spite of this, the protection of cultural property as an independent field of law is comparatively new. Kerstin Odendahl begins her work by outlining the historical development of the protection of cultural property on a national level and in international and European law, using this as a basis for describing the present system of standards. Drawing on this, she then examines whether or not the protection of cultural property has dogmatic elements which are common to all the levels. The author concludes her work by showing inconsistencies in evaluation and violations of the system and suggests solutions which are consistent with the system. As a new scientific approach, "comprehensive dogmatics", developed as an example for the protection of cultural property, is suitable for application in other fields of law as well.
