Abstract:Cultural property protection policy as implemented in Syria since 2011 is structured around standards and practices enshrined within the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict (including its First and Second Protocols) and the 1970 UNESCO Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property. Policy emphasis is on thein situprotection of cultural sites and the recovery and return of stolen or looted cultural objects. But policy initiatives have very obviously failed to stop the plunder and illegal trade of cultural objects in Syria, as they have failed before for neighboring countries. This paper describes why policy initiatives aimed at site protection and object recovery have failed and how policy might be improved by a market reduction approach aimed at subduing demand.

This paper deals with the implementation of the Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the Event of Armed Conflict and its Protocols in armed forces focusing on the Austrian Armed Forces as a best-practice example thereof. It argues for: a. the importance of cultural property protection being an integral element of any military doctrine drafted by political authorities, of a special military directive for cultural property protection, and of cultural property protection being an element in all rules of engagement; b. for the concept of a Cultural Property Protection Officer or Liaison Officer: Military Cultural Property Protection as the professional military staff member responsible for ensuring cultural property protection is considered by their commanders in any situation in times of peace as well as during the conduct of missions; c. for also taking cultural property protection into account for multinational missions such as peace support operations, as well as for military disaster relief missions; d. for the cooperation of the military with non-governmental organizations for developing, implementing, and improving principles of military cultural property protection. تتناول هذه المقالة تنفيذ الاتفاقية المتعلقة بحماية الممتلكات الثقافية في حالة نشوب نزاع مسلح وبروتوكولاتها في القوات المسلحة مع التركيز على القوات المسلحة النمساوية مثالا لأفضل الممارسات منه. وتناقش: (أ) أهمية حماية الملكية الثقافية كجزء لا يتجزأ من أي عقيدة عسكرية وضعتها السلطات السياسية كتوجه عسكري خاص لحماية الممتلكات الثقافية ، وان حماية الممتلكات الثقافية هي عنصر في كل قواعد الاشتباك.

Preparations for the adoption of the new Law on Cultural Values Protection, its discussion and debates, that seriously puzzled the German Government, and also caused acute criticism from the representatives of the world of art are analyzed. Attention is focused on approaches to the important and quite complex in this regard issue concerning preservation of illegal movement of cultural objects that belong to the cultural heritage of the state. The main purpose of the bill is to enhance the protection of cultural property and effectively combat the illicit trafficking of them. The intentions of the Federal Government to integrate pre-existing laws in the field of cultural values into one law are very important. The main principles of the law in the new edition are protection from being sold overseas collections of state museums, including exhibits from private ownership that are in museums temporarily. It is highlighted that under current legislation, in each federal state of art and other cultural treasures, including libraries, must be entered in the register of national cultural values. These items have privileges in taxation, their export outside Germany requires special permission from the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Germany, which can be stipulated for a number of restrictions and reservations. In the article it is underlined that he XXIcentury has set new challenges and tasks for German scientists that require operational, but balanced approach in their solution. ; Аналізується підготовка нового закону про захист культурних цінностей. Його обговорення та дискусії поставили серйозні проблеми перед урядом Німеччини, а також викликали гостру критику представників світу мистецтв. Зосереджена увага на підходах до важливого і складного у зв'язку з цим завдання запобігання незаконному переміщенню об'єктів культури, які належать до низки культурного надбання держави. Головною метою законопроекту є посилення захисту культурних цінностей та ефективної боротьби з незаконною торгівлею ними. Важливими є наміри Федерального уряду з об'єднання раніше існуючих законів у сфері охорони культурних цінностей в одному законі. Основними положеннями закону у новій редакції є захист від розпродажу за кордон колекцій державних музеїв, зокрема експонатів із приватного володіння, що зберігаються в музеях тимчасово. Підкреслено, що згідно чинного законодавства, у кожній федеральній землі твори мистецтва та інші культурні цінності, включаючи бібліотеки, повинні бути внесені до реєстру національних культурних цінностей. Ці предмети користуються пільгами при оподаткуванні, їх вивезення за межі країни потребує спеціального дозволу Міністерства внутрішніх справ ФРН, яке може бути обумовлено низкою обмежень і застережень. У статті наголошується, що XXI ст. поставило перед вченими та суспільством ФРН нові виклики і завдання, які потребують оперативного, але виваженого підходу в їх вирішенні.
