Sommario/riassunto

'Confronting Colonial Objects' traces recurring justifications and contestations of takings and returns in colonial history through the life story of cultural objects. It develops a theory based on justice, ethics, and human rights that confronts ongoing historic, legal, and economic entanglements and enables normative transformation.
