Abstract

Under the auspices of Kurt Siehr (Hamburg, Zürich) the 9th International Seminar on "Art & Law" took place from July 6–9, 2007, in Basel, Switzerland. Originally conceived as a platform for doctorate candidates in Europe and over the last years enlarged to a platform for comprehensive discussions between lawyers as well as art historians, academics as well as practitioners, this year's seminar in Basel focused on three main issues: protection of cultural property, problems of stolen works of art (both including their international and European legal frame), and copyright protection.
