Over the centuries, a multitude of items ? including a cannon of the King of Kandy, power-objects from DR Congo, Benin bronzes, Javanese temple statues, M.ori heads and strategic documents ? has ended up in museums and private collections in Belgium and the Netherlands by improper means. Since gaining independence, former colonies have been calling for the return of their lost heritage. As continued possession of these objects only grows more uncomfortable, governments and museums must decide what to do. How did these objects get here? Are they all looted, and how can we find out? How does restitution work in practice? Are there any appealing examples? How do other former colonial powers deal with restitution? Do former colonies trust their intentions? The answers to these questions are far from unambiguous, but indispensable for a balanced discussion. 606 $aAnthropological museums and collections$xMoral and ethical aspects$zBelgium 606 $aAnthropological museums and collections$xMoral and ethical aspects$zNetherlands 606 $aCultural property$xRepatriation$zBelgium 606 $aCultural property$xRepatriation$zNetherlands 606 $aMuseums$xAcquisitions$xMoral and ethical aspects$zBelgium 606 $aMuseums$xAcquisitions$xMoral and ethical aspects$zNetherlands 606 $aART / Museum Studies$2bisacsh 615 0$aAnthropological museums and collections$xMoral and ethical aspects 615 0$aAnthropological museums and collections$xMoral and ethical aspects 615 0$aCultural property$xRepatriation 615 0$aCultural property$xRepatriation 615 0$aMuseums$xAcquisitions$xMoral and ethical aspects 615 0$aMuseums$xAcquisitions$xMoral and ethical aspects 615 7$aART / Museum Studies. 676 $a305.80074 700 $aBeurden$b Jos$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01251763 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910580298903321 996 $aInconvenient Heritage$92901593 997 $aUNINA
