New Book Series: Studies in Art, Heritage, Law and the Market
MACCH is launching a new book series with Springer. The founding editorial board consists of MACCH affiliated scholars Rachel Pownall, Ana Ramalho, Christoph Rausch, Hildegard Schneider, Vivian van Saaze, Renée van de Vall, Lars van Vliet, and Donna Yates.
The book series Studies in Art, Heritage, Law and the Market provides an international and interdisciplinary forum for volumes that
- investigate legal, economic, and policy developments related to arts, heritage, and intellectual property;
- critically assess how and for whom art and heritage values come about;
- promote novel forms of user engagement, participatory presentations, and digitalization of arts and heritage;
- examine the processes that transform cultural objects and practices into arts and heritage; and
- highlight new approaches in preservation and conservation science.
The series addresses a need for research and practice in the fields of art, culture, conservation, and heritage including a focus on legal and economic aspects. It deals with complex issues such as questions of authenticity and provenance; forgery and falsification; the illicit trade, restitution, and return of cultural objects; the changing roles of museums; the roles of experts and expertise; and the ethics of the art market.
Please visit the Springer website for more information about upcoming publications.
